In-Depth Look: All-New ARGO Aurora XTV 

Just bought a 2021 Argo frontier 600 as just wanted to try it and no get too deep. $10999 in Almonte ontario Canada. Will make a decent machine to try out. Didnt kill the bank. $40 a week is what im paying. Mehhhh if i like it ill go with 8x8 Aurora which i liked better. Test drove a 950 which was much nicer but like $30 K ..Expect a video soon as picking up today. Ill try and do without music lol god knows everybody hates that lol

I've had my Argo 6x6 for almost 20 years now, I paid about $9,500 new, used it a lot when new, but kept getting tickets from the DNR for going into the water even registered as a watercraft. So I built a homemade snow plow and it works great you can't stop it, I have never done any (zero) repairs on it since day one and it runs drives great yet and everything works!

love our argo..didn't get into it for speed...have 2016 huntmaster with 18 inch rubber tracks and run mostly in winter...bought for capability … spend a few extra bucks and and do a bit of prep work and you can get yourself out of almost any situation.. we got an extra winch for pulling backwards.. if front is down in a hole .. can be a challenge to get it(winch ) from front to back.. rig another winch so you just have to slide it into the receiver on the back... plug in … and your good to go..stay calm and have a check list like a pilot so your prepared.. ...make sure drain plugs are in and you can just relax and take it all in stride... have fun in places that others won't go near ...thats what argos are all about....

Argo you've out done urself again,put a set of Argo tracks on this monster,n its unstoppable......if i could pick any ATV today it would be this Argo hands down..

YAP,YAP,YAP,YAP, MAN! lets see the vehicle !!!!

They went from the 8x8s being a 6 seater on land to only a 4 seater and the price is way higher to where MOST people can't afford the new ones! I paid $32,000 for my 2012 Chevy Suburban with 20k miles in 2012. These new "recreational" AATV almost cost as much as my full sized Suburban did and it has onstar, leather seats and all the bells and whistles you'd expect. Argo made a few changes on thier transmissions, tire size and engine size but the drive train is really no different than the much cheaper older models that still do the same thing the newer models do. My 2000 Argo Conquest 8x8 can still go the same places the newer ones can go and do but my 2000 Argo only cost me $5500 with only 96 hours on it as apposed to $28,000 for these new Aroras. Argo will soon price themselves back out of the ATV, UTV market which costs about half of one of these $28,000 Argos! You can buy a new Jeep Gladiator for what you'd pay for a plastic made Arora driven by chains, a couple of springs added to the steering system, and an oversized lawnmower engine. If you were doing an honest and forthcoming review for your fans and other people, you'd discuss what I just covered with everyone. Oh Argos are indeed amazing machines but they still can't justify a $28,000+ price tag on them.

I have a 2001 Argo 6x6 Bigfoot. These machines take lots of maintenance and constant bearing replacements. I've spent more time working on it than riding it.

I wish ARGO would built an amphibious 6 or 7 passenger minivan especially in Ontario where you have so many lakes .

Argo A5v looks awesome, would love to drive one

I bought one of this Machine 2019 Argo Aurora 800sx 8x8 for couple years now! That’s great vehicle for off grid Cabin up north in Minnesota

the biggest question is did they price the argo... to high like the utv's and atvs

So was no one else wanting waiting for The Banana Splits theme song to play

Talk more about the drivetrain, where all the problem were/are. I’ve owned Argos since 1981. Always bought two together and worked them side by side in industry! I see all the cosmetic changes but more time has to be spent on making the machine more reliable in the drive train for extreme remote areas.

28,000 it may as well be 5 millon

Buddy had a old 6x6 with a 440 snowmobile engine, he’s the one to ask about going really fast on a Argo..

Can those rear seats be easily removed. If not, there's a lot of storage space gone! My Argo Avenger gets loaded down ... no need for two passenger seats in the rear.

I’m here early! Love your show and I can’t wait for snow to go snowmobiling in.

Not gonna be interested until i see a Tracked Argo with a small Diesel for major pulling power for Us Woods Men. 🤠

Anyone notice how he says been, just stands out 😂

2:22 is that witch zip-tied on? Sure looks it the way it's flopping around.

Definitely something nice to have for my life style. Living off grid. This would come in handy bto the hard to reach spots deep in the Louisiana swamp. Very nice machine. It has come a long way.

Always wanted an Argo since the mid 90's when the one season of Maximum drive aired on TV. Now want one even more!

I would love to see a review of the new Mahindra Roxors!

Whem you dominate the field you can name your price !

40+ mph without a factory rops? Sounds like a for sure disaster

UNCLEDOUG SAYS WE LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Correction at [4:30] top speed In excess of 40 KILOMETERS per hour not 40 mile per hour

Make it four wheel and put a rops and keep the water ability .So a utv that goes i the water ,the water part would be there"thing".

Excellent review

That hair on his ear man...I wanna just pluck it.

Why brakesteer? This isn't 1939. Also no rollbar? For that money? "argo is no longer content to build the same vehicles with minor improvements year after year"? So what do you think this is exactly?

40mph with tracks would be interesting. Wonder at what point the good aftermarket tracks like the adairs or beaver dam would fly off.

ive owned honda,kawaski,yamahas utvs/ atvs/snowmobiles for 50 years. in 2018...a younger guy buys one its 10-20 k purchase....cost is too high

I used to rent them for surveying in the 80s. Really hard on the lower back. Only useful in open water or muskeg.

It won't replace a utv, but would be fun to take it in the back 40 for some mudding and climbing.

Why do they keep brake steer? With just a small modification to the transmission to could have a really smooth steering with zero lost of power just has the new tanks have.

We’re can I get one of these?

The tread pattern on the tires seems to face the wrong way. (The opposite way to that on a tractor)

Now they need to come out with a model with suspension. I don t care if it can t float on water.

I just want the parts list for the drive system, and the drawn diagram, or to get the 3d thing so I can build my own tank

Bearings and chains will always be the downfall of ODG machines .....love them when they’re working but whatta maintenance nightmare.

Is there someone need grain cleaner or separator？

I like Aurora!

Looks awesome I love your all's videos

Argo update design? I have really bad experience when I try to changed engine oil and filter on the old 8x8。。。。。

The price is insane.

I remember as a kid we use to drive these alot. All by ourselves and no adult supervision. Don't know how we didn't kill ourselves. By today's standards it's kinda useless. It floats...thats it. A side by side would be a better purchase for this price. I do have fond memories of Argo's.

Wait you say it goes 40mph but the website says 20mph....

Add two more tires and double the price? I don't think so! I would not pay 15K for all the Argo's ever made.

what is its price

I like it! How strong is the plastics? Is it something that a broken branch can push through easily?

I have a 2019 Argo Aurora 955 sx. Great machine EXCEPT when you need to do even simple maintenance. The oil filter is so misplaced it took me two days to get it off and another day to put it back on. Be sure to wrap your hands and wrists also or they will be torn to pieces from where you must reach. I thought changing the transmission oil would be easier, but they put a component right in front of the drain plug so you cannot use a socket. Too much machinery in the way to use a box wrentch. Very frustrating.

No roll bar?

these guys never give good/true reviews, it's like they are always scared to say anything negative of what they are testing.

Price?

Ride like a Roto tiller, float like a turd, all options 30k. what a deal !

Good video

Is it a hair or an antenna?

Please what is price. Please get back to me again thank you Eric

How much?

Thanks god bless

Didn't Argo make a really cool amphibious ATV in the 70s?

he must have ment 40kph not mph and maybe it does 25mph?

How fast is the water speed for the ARGO?

Be nice if said starting price.

1:35 " always BEAN fun" wth does that mean?

I want bucket seats, roll bar, fold down windshield, and a turbo charged water cooled engine.

Sprocket and chains .... no suspensions .....24 000 $ .... not for me

no roll bar or cage .:. the same rate of roll over or back flip caused casualties & fatalities.

Looks like a pain in the ace to work on

I know the way the argo is shaped has to do with why it works so I know this could never happen, but could you imagine if they could somehow make a side by side looking machine with the argo capabilities, like being able to pull up at a lake in a vehicle that looks like a polaris general, or 4 seat yamaha wolverine, and being able to go out and motor around on the lake.

I’m glad they relocated the parking break, I’m tired of getting poked in the ass.

that may be true BUT! you still to deal with getting traction also when you outa water too. Sent there 8 tire wheels 4 on each side the best way to set up the DIRECTIONAL V-TYPE TREAD is: front V point forward 2nd point ^backward 3rd forward 4th^ backward. this way when in water the front rows tries and the 3rd rows tries will PULL YOU FORWARD. while the 2nd row and 4th row tire will even out the paddling for pushing through the water. Doing this configuration will help with better control and traction in mud/bogs/snow/water. If not agreed go on YOU TUBE type search for the HISTORY OF BIGFOOT monster truck. in that video you see bigfoot in the water using there monster truck tractor tries running the forward with the V-TIRE so the paddling this pulling the truck through the water.

This week on dirt tracks. I hope they don't take there hats off !!!!!!!

for $28,000... I lost all interest. Please tell me where the ridicules major cost resides....just pure over the top profit. Or is it because they sell so few per year the pricing is through the roof.

What I find lacking in Argo is the drive train all chains and them wheel bearings the need to do something different. Hydastatic drive. Not for outdoorsman needs shaft drive

To dangerous no security roof if the things turned around what is next you losing your head

So it's just like the old Argos except it's fun.

Tell Argo WE Want a $10.000$ machine with a Roll Bar. Then I will buy. Keeping my ATV until then.

All this power and money but no PTO ?

Give me two!

Tub vs Sherp

argo or a defender....... ???? live on a farm......... love the argo .... but not much. out here .......... defender. 6x6. huge here.......... any comments....thanks..

UNCLEDOUG SAYS NICE !!!!!!!!

EV is the future, maybe it would be the next model.

Wow that's bad to the bone now I just have to wait 10 years so I can afford one

Do the wheel bearings and seals still continually fail from salt water? A friend has one of the originals, and continually had to replace seals & bearings when he went out into the salt water with it. poor design, IMHO

Man talk about script paid advertisement, I wonder how much commission he gets

Ok, who started singing the Banana Splits tune in their heads??

Why orange

Nice advert...

Great

I hope you got the money

Nice...but they shouldnt cost that much

Needs LEDs

he was mistaken no utv will do 40 mph without rops. and the admiral trans isnt geared for speed. i own a 1999 argo vanguard , bullet proof and simple to work on. my biggest fear with this is no way you could work on it. they do make a great vehicle . also have a pioneer side by, but always end up in the argo. 25 grand???? im out

They are the only way to hunt Northern Alberta Muskeg.

I wish they still sold sharks with lasers

Star Citizen players, you know my thoughts. Oh, and PTV?

Why the handlebars??? I'd think a steering wheel would be better??
