Anyone ever have or used a Argo 6wheeled thing?

Was wondering about the Argo. Thought it might be a good "get to the bear bait" thing. Where there is 50 yards of snow, then gravel Rd and then snow again. Early spring can be tricky to get up in mt and 4wheeler rds. Just wondered how they do.

had use of one a few years ago.  did o.k. in the snow(less than 2ft)  and worse going in the water.  fun to operate though.

Put tracks on one and you have a completely different animal. A friend has one and loves it except for the cost of ownership.

was in one up in Alberta on a moose hunt.  Didn't matter if it was firm ground, marshy ground or a bog hole.

ATV tracks are a lot cheaper and will go very well in the spring mud/snow conditions exactly as the OP describes, they're the perfect medicine for spring thaw conditions. 



In the Alaska tundra then yes the tracked argo for sure, but in the mountains tracked ATV is much faster/cheaper.

I wondered that, also was a direction I was looking.

These guys are in Spokane WA


Another thing to keep in mind is a lot of trails are cut to atv width, bring a saw with the argo they're pretty wide.

My dad had one at my grandparents farm in Michigan and that thing could go anywhere, there was a pond and a swamp on the farm and it had no problem going through deep mudd or water. I have no idea how it would do in snow, I think the issue would be ground clearance

I have a friend who has a 6 wheeled/tracked Argo he uses in Alaska, he lives in Curlew. It's setup for Alaskan hunting and I believe he wants to sell it.

Just get yourself an old army gamma-goat and you can go anywhere!
