I know a lot of people who have Gators, and they like them, for the most part. I also know some of those people who got rid of them, and bought a Ranger, because the Ranger is faster. I have a 2013 Polaris Ranger 500. For what I do, it's ideal. I have tractors for jobs that require pulling some type of implement, so I don't have to do that. I use mine mostly for hunting, checking the cattle, and running around the farm on. I've got almost a 1000 hours on mine, and it has been virtually trouble free.
If I was in the market for another UTV, Polaris is where I'd look first.
