This is what the action looks like out here at Carolina Adventure World for the John Deere Gator XUV product launch and media event. I had my turn and I have video and interviews that will wait until another time.

I spoke with John Gilbeck, John Deere Product Marketing Manager, about the new machines during a break in the action. He says there are 3 new models, the 625i, 855D and 825i. The 825i is really the star of the show with maximum speed of 44 mph! I can verify that since I did it on one straight stretch of our riding area. He provides an overview of features and options that you’ll find on the new machines. John Deere is offering a significant amount of dealer installed options which he says offers customers some savings when picking some of the options.

I’ve updated my photo album with some action photos of the new machines being driven by the journalists out there: John Deere Gator XUV Launch Photo Album
