ATV Battle! ARGO Avenger 800 vs Dobrinya vs Taiga 4x4 

Hello from the midwestern United States. First off I want to congratulate you on a great video. Second I am struck by how much I appreciate the gear-head interests of my once considered enemy. I am old enough to remember and have been a soldier of the cold war years. I am convinced if we lived closer we would be enjoying offroad activities as friends. I am so very glad we never went to war and I pray my fellow citizens will have the courage to fight tyranny without bloodshed like your countrymen did. God bless and Merry Christmas.

the clip of the grass sinking under the weight of the atv is so cool

Argo has made its name in this stuff. Amazing machines for sure. Worth the extra 👛👜 to not be left out.

Those guys standing on the muskeg are totally crazy! One wrong step and you can go through that "carpet" and it will close up after you go through and it is pitch black and almost certain death. Just nuts man!

Love your content, been watching and liking for a while now. I'm from the UK so the scene for these machines isn't huge and we don't have the amazing landscapes like you do in Russia but it interests me all the same. The Argo's are very clever the admiral transmission is a triple diff like the Brits used in their tanks from the Churchill to the chieftain!! But your home grown ATVs like dobrinya still prove so capable with much more basic tech...goes to show that simplicity is not a bad thing!! Thanks again and keep the awesome content up guys!!

I have an Argo Vanguard 6x6. It is a real beast and it is unstoppable!

That floating marsh is pretty neat!

Great video cheers from Newfoundland

Have an Argo 6x6 only thing better is a sherp. Awesome video shows just how good the Argo can be. Argo made in Canada for Canadians like me.

Great Video and Beautiful Country

Awesome channel with AWSOME content!! Thank you Sir and may you have many more muddy trails to come.

Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

great demo swamp test.

Merry Christmas to All

Great video I have a Argo 6x6 I live along the coast in Texas , it works great

Wow awesome machines! Watching from Australia.

What about those crazy ones where u sit in the trailer

🏆🏆🏆👍🙏 Thank you for sharing

Nice work.

The 2 cheap ones got stuck argo rescued them well worth the money

Excellent. Nice detail. Would love to hear about ride comfort

As a Canadian who has owned a couple Argo’s there are way better tracks for them then the ones you are running. There are other RU-vid videos comparing Argo tracks. It’s good to see Argo finally putting some power in there machines as they are typically terribly under powered.

Argo for sure if you can afford the extra for it.

I like the truck for 4000. I had an Argo & they will go through some nasty stuff

Long winded I am! Political statement here. Here watching this off road video shows how much alike we really are. Our fellow country men/women are so much alike, we don't need war mongering politicians screwing things up, We the people that live on the land are so much alike, we don't need threats of violence to divide us. We are able to play and party together even though we may be divided by language, but that is easy to overcome. Living near the tundra says, come on out and play. There are no stop signs, no traffic signs, so lets do it!

That land is awesome

Pretty hard to beat an Argo.

That articulated ATV is amazingly affordable! The tires look like a Sherp which makes me think that Russian atv's are only expensive here due to impt taxes? I like their tracked atv too. I would gladly pay 5K for it just to use getting around the farm.

Pro Tip: get a small marine anchor (plow/delta maybe claw) for the winch - hurl and pull !

I would buy the one with 4 fat tires. It twists in the middle and articulates. Here in midwest, USA, I only have greasy mud, shallow swamps and lots of snow. Plus, the repair and maintenance on tracks is many times more expensive than a simple tire! Just rent a tracked skidsteer loader vs a tire skidsteer. Bigger money, honey!

I like the Argo the best! I just recently bought one, but I haven't had the chance to try it out yet!

nostrovia from michigan USA, yevgeny machine looks cool, good job nice video rock on

The Argo is by far the best and if it had better tracks like Adair or Alaskan bush tracks would even be better 🙂

Great video

Those non argo rigs are priced pretty well!

I think the Russian machines are awesome! Cheers from BC 🇨🇦🍻

The Argo has less ground pressure and more horsepower, and for the swamp was the best choice, as was stated. I liked the Dobrinya, which I think was the most robust design, but it could stand to be a bit longer, and a bit more horsepower. The Taiga appears a bit top heavy and easier to flip, or turn over, than the other two. I would have a Taiga, but would prefer one of the other two, for that reason.

witch cost more to replace big wheels or tracks

Definitely ppl like to buy. Looks fun, when is such day? Abt personal experiences "as people can die anytime".

Very nice. I like this. You have a new subscriber from France.

Greetings from the Netherlands

The amount of exhaust smoke produced by the Dobrinya would make you sick ! That steering link on the Taiga shouldn't be cast metal, it's far too brittle for a critical component. The price is amazing tho' !

Excellent video. Do you have any Argo 6X6's to do a similar test? Thinking wheel base would be closer to the dobrinya. I think I got that right, the Russian tracked vehicle? Of course I am a little bit biased as I just bought an Argo 700 6X6 with the 25 inch tire upgrade, but no tracks yet. Keep up the good work, very much enjoy your video's. You just earned yourself another subscriber. Na zdrolje.

Lots of Argo's around here in Canada, lots of northern oil and gas applications but they are very expensive. The Russian machines are nearly as Capable but a fraction of the price, albiet with Chinese engines instead of the Kohler EFi in the Argo.

I got myself an 8x8 argo - but yet to go with tracks.

The price differences are the key here. Argo is tooooo expensive but dominates. The Dobrinya is limited because of the tires but is. the best bang for your buck.

Need to fit an airline fitting on the exhaust with a locking block off, instead of wrapping rags around the pipe.

I enjoyed the video very much. Looked like a fine bunch of riders and support staff. Wish we could all sit around a warm camp fire drinking Vodka or some Bourbon telling stories and showing a few scars, laughing. I hope some day they gather up most of the politicians and drop them in the Swamp head first never to be seen again. To better and happier times.

The Argo factory tracks are the weakest aspect of the machine. Whether you use the plastic or rubber, Argo just doesn't make an effective track. I use an aftermarket product called the Alaskan Bush Track. Now my Argo is as close to unstoppable as you can get. Thick mud is the most difficult to navigate. But the AK Bush Track increases the likelihood that you'll get in and out of where your going. Great post.

I want to buy them but how?

One thing you didn't show is how much they all leak water

Argo is the best, but cost a lot, Dobrinya is very good for the price,

Great! Suprised the canadian did so well against the russian practicality.😃

In the river crossing argos are supposed to exit in reverse

$4k big tie rig, enclosed rig $5k & argo is $25k

Ive had argo my whole career and they are awsome but, not even close to worth the ticket price. Longterm ownership is a serious pain in the hoop due to maintenence. The front bearings are a paint to grease as they are right in under the engine and not much room. Also ganrentee to get clarty.

Argo seems like the best but your going to pay 20 or even 30 thousand for it.

The Argo is clearly the best, but at 5-6 times the price. It's not THAT much better. Unfortunately it's the only one available here in Canada :(

Argos would be seen a lot more 8f they weren't so expensive. Most manufacturers now make things too complex and way overpriced.

Argos are the best in Canada

I think Argocat would have performed better in some circumstances better without the tracks

big thump up , great videos like always you really deserve more likes but I would highly appreciate if you give us a roughly price of those machines

Great video! It is quite plain to see that the tracked vehicle is the new ATV to come to market. The big concern is the damage to terrain cause by the tracks. I live in an area where ATV vehicles are very common. The side by side has replaced the ATV of choice. Here the side by side outnumbers the quads by at least 2 to 1. One of the big problems here is trail damage by over zealous bikers. The rut holes are severe, and need constant service by road crews. For that one situation, I would not want off roaders on my property. It is bad! however back to the video, those tracked vehicles seem awesome. The big wheeled articulated atv is no slouch either.

Canada is very expensive. But I would be concerned about getting Russian parts to the US.

Argo, eh.

Where that's place , russia?

По русски разучились говорить?

Russian atvs are the best

Man the taiga is just trash love the argo
