subject: Make your Gator what you want it to be [print this page] When the term utility vehicle is used one can not help nut see some kind of military vehicle or even a four wheeled drive vehicle in your mind. That is however not the case when someone mentions the word Gator. Gator brings a clear picture of a John Deere green gator racing across a field or a golf course or somewhere on a farm. John Deere introduced their Gator series of utility vehicles in the early 1990s and since then these vehicles have been a roaring success. So much so that they have a special line of cross over Gators that are used by the United States Military and these have been in use since 1997 in Bosnia. These days the Gators have advanced so far that you can buy a whole range of John Deere gator parts and accessories to customize the Gator to your specific needs. The basic models come in either four wheel or six wheel models and have full four wheeled drive capabilities. The John Deere Gator parts and accessories that one can add to your Gator includes over a 100 attachments to really make it unique and to make sure it can do exactly what a person needs it to do. These accessories and attachments includes body armour, beacon lights, tail light kits, bed liners, cargo boxes, cab and glass door kits, hard tops and many other things to customize the Gator to be what you want it to be. These parts and accessories are available just about anywhere as well as from internet shopping retailers.
