They have essentially modernized the Willys and made it off road only. solid axles, manual trans, diesel engine, BFG ATs. This just might turn the corner on the pretender UTV crowd and get something out there that can do some crawling, without being based on something that meets emission and crash standards.

That is a really cool idea! I mean to the unwashed, it looks like its an old Jeep!
But Mahindra? When I was looking to buy my tractor, I had a used tractor sales guy tell me that his experience with Mahindra is that they are really pretty good machines, but when they break, they essentially have no service/support. Its very difficult to get parts and warranty is problematic. |

I bought a Mahindra tractor from Fredrick's Outdoors in Priceville and they have full parts and service for them.

Yep, that's one of the places this chap mentioned. I have no experience, Im just going on what was said to me by someone who makes a living buying/selling used tractors. I went to Fredrick's to look at buying a new Mahindra tractor, and after about 10-15 minutes of standing around and trying to get someone to talk to me about prices and features and such, I left. They obviously didnt need my money. So I wound up getting a used Kubota L3901: Sorry for derailing the thread... |

Can't go wrong with a Kubota. I've had mine about 16 years with no issues.

If it had flat fenders they would sell all they could build.

Yeah I saw that review. The nice thing about the roxor is it's new production and diesel. I like wheeling with an auto but it seems like a manual would be fine with the right gearing and torque like this has.

Price is not bad either if you compare it to other high end Side by Sides.

At the TVHFE where RCRC has a booth (yall should go see the show) they have 3 new Roxors. These things are equipped with the best damned warning sticker on the dash of any vehicle I have ever encountered: |

yeah I don't get it. They have a license with FCA to produce the things, and partnered with them to change the grille before bringing it here. Maybe they are selling better than FCA though they would. Still don't know how that lets them go back on the agreements. It's a different market anyway. When they become street legal, then its getting closer.
