Chinese 8x8 trying to pull a truck in the snow

[amphibious drew]

I like how he can't get power to both sides at the same time.

Some more video's of it.

I am not impressed by its performance.

Really? I would like to see a video by an aatv owner In the us.

Embeded Youtube videos no longer play on this site for me. All I see is a red "play" arrow and nothing plays. Any ideas? Videos work on other sites/discussion boards.

No idea Brandon. I just tried it from my android phone and it worked for me.

1:39 in this video is really pathetic.

Finally got embedded videos to work again.
I don't see anything to horrible about this vehicle from the videos. I think an Argo would have performed nearly the same in deep snow. Pulling that truck is exactly what an Argo would do. Argo does have a better lower body and approach angle (Avenger, Frontier) that would help avoid high-centering. This chinese rig seems to have more power than the older Conquest/Response. Those older Argos are so slow and underpowered it wouldn't take much to out perform them. The biggest advantage to the Argo is the fact that it is extremely durable an reliable. I doubt this chinese 8x8 is very well made, judging by the quads they put out. The chinese quads run well and look good... for a very short period of time. I think that's what this chinese 8x8 might be prone to. I'd love to see a picture of the driveline.

Thanks for that video..It a good source of information as far as what not to buy...I think If I saw a video on the forum when I was looking at buying my max, that showed all amphibious vehicles handling that way, I never would have bought one.. Looks like this video should be saved in the file that is for first time buyers as far as what not to buy..
