finally got the orange beast to camp this weekend.trails were real dry and rough so never got a chance to see how well it handles mud.did find it really hot to drive in the heat of the day,kinda gives you a burn where you really dont want one.
however i did manage to put 5 hours on it and also tried it out in a nasty beaver pond.got some pictures,hope you like them.

Hey plott hound,
We are from Timmins, On. and we go in stuff like that almost every weekend, this one place is 5 beaver dams, all connected together, for about 4kms, we went through it with a new Argo HDi that had 18inch swamp tracks on it, effortlessly, the new Argos, really are amazing, especially with the new Admirial tranny.
man would i like to ride with you for a few hours.ive got the only argo in the group so im a little hesitant on going gung ho.need another argo for a recovery vehicle.
Sounds like a good reason to have a couple machines for yourselfman would i like to ride with you for a few hours.ive got the only argo in the group so im a little hesitant on going gung ho.need another argo for a recovery vehicle.
Did you get hung up on any sticks in the pond? I got hung up on an old stump one time, it was jutting up betweent the lower tub and the tires, between 2 axles.

almost got hung up rockdoctor.damn wind pushed me into a big log,luckily enough the argo pushed it down.was able to climb over it.
think from now on i will stick to small water holes.the orange beast does take on a bit of water.
