What is the best

[Duckkiller]

What is the best a Mudd-Ox or Argo 750hdi wanting to buy one but very confused
I live in Southeast Texas lots of mud and water to cross. Going to put tracks on it. I like the Adair Tracks just wanting some input from people that know how and what works best for my conditions.
Also would like to know what the Mudd-OX cost both models Diesel and gas with Tracks.

both are very capible machines. I suggest you try to find members near you and see if you can check out there toys. mayby they will even let you drive if your lucky. good luck wwith the hunt

[Duckkiller]

Where are you located at? We have an amphib group ride planned this spring. Bud will be bringing his Argo Frontier 8x8 with Adair tracks on it, and I,ll have my Mudd-Ox there with the Adair tracks on it as well. Bud will probably let you test drive his Argo Frontier, and I,ll also let you drive my Mudd-Ox with Adair tracks on it also. This will give you a similar comparison.

In Dayton Tx. about 45 min east of Houston out Hwy 90.

Come on out and look at and drive our machines when we get together.

I set mine up specifically for duck hunting, so it might give you some ideas when you decide what you want.

It comes down to dollars spent. For what you want (duck Hunting) I would go to river run and check out Buds machine (Argo 8x8 frontier with Adair tracks) for about $15,000.00
I don't believe you can find a better vehicle for the price. HDI's are great but a least another $5,000.00, HDI's get over Twenty grand quickly.

Duckkiller, you will find a lot of cool things being said about about every type of rig. Each has it's type of use, and all of them are pretty good points.
My personal opinon, after owning a bunch of different machines, is drive them and see which ones meet your need.If you are one of the weekend mudders, then the light wieght jerk steers may meet your need. If you want a long range investment that will do lots of hard work and if you don't like the jerks, then a hydraulic machine may be what you want.At my age I have gotten spoiled with the smooth corners and the positive power to the tracks. My tracks and running gear last a lot longer due to the less ground friction of the skid steer.
I am sure that your request will bring a hoard of dealers doing their best to convince you to buy their products, but some of us don't deal and won't push one kind over another.
My best friend drives an argo and we both enjoy each other's machine.
I have been swamp running since my first cushman tracster in 1971. Loved that machine! Since then I've spent a fortune on almost every kind of aatv.
Right now I own a MO Diesel loaded to the gills.At this time I haven't driven a machine that is tougher, smoother, or more reliable, but my application is different than most aatv'ers. For me it's heavy loads in swamps, steep ground, very deep snow, glacial ice flows and far below zero weather.Breakdowns can easily kill me.( some of the light weight drivers probably wish I would freeze my old a-- off!)
My MO is reliable but I carry enough small tools to repair most anything that might fail. Not much could shut me down.
Yeah, I spent the money to get it, but It was far less than all of those other rigs that failed me. I am lucky to be here to gab about it.I'll bet my daily excursions are ten times more dangerous than most of the mud runs down there.
my HD opinions always stir up strife with the brotherhood,but I have learned you always get what you pay for!
Your decision should be governed by your need, not by someone huffing and puffing about whose dog is best!
