i have a jd gator with a gas engine (kawasaki). it has been a life saver her at our place. It is 2 wheel drive, but has locking differential. the base model with all metal construction was what i originally went after. after riding it around their lot, i decided against it quick. it will beat you to death. mine has some pretty good suspension. i like it because it has tubular bumpers and no canopy. i think a unit with a canopy would be asking for trouble in more than one way in wooded areas. it also has a dump bed with spray in liner and a rubber mat. one option i didnt get was a front rack. i didnt realize they made them. i may order one of those someday.
