Todays new work vehicle… John deer Gator……

[Martyn]

Got this delivered in work yesterday and was pretty excited to sign it over…

It’s a John Deer Gator with every conceivable extra - retail at £50k… cool as £iuc&…..

Even has a measuring tape on the rear folding lip..

Yes, it's cool..... but 50k? Really? You could buy 2 brand new pickups for that money

Yes I know..

I didn’t have to write the cheque so was quite happy to receive it.

The company that supplied them did well - they delivered 4 more on the same day to different areas.

So what are their purpose at that price point or just a play thing for someone with money?

 

[Eddies]

shannaghmore?

Price point for the older models started at like 8 to 15. Pricing I'd say is gone away up extras are crazy money like anything from a dealer.

 

[svensktoppen]

50k? Holy smokes, lol. Cool wee things though!

 

[DC.]

John Expensive more like!

That’s extortionate.

Company converts them. Can either go for brand new or they’ll do a used one.

A new gator is like £30k so whoever has specced this with over £20k of options needs there head looked at .

I’d say this is the case. Most people spending their own money would be buying something like the Polaris alternative!

Tractors are scarier… Inflation is a doddle compared to how they’ve ramped up in the last 10 years.

They’re class, hope she does your job Martyn

The Jimny’s are also superb. They’re big in New Zealand as gator type vehicle alternatives.
