Argo 6X6 Bigfoot

[BBoomerBootCamp]

It has always been my daughters pride and joy. It can go anywhere and I mean anywhere, check these out on you tube, its a riot. I regret to have to find it a new home, and with watery eyes I placed it in the want adds. I'd sure like to here from other members if they had any drive time in these awesome 6x6 atv's.
Thanks

Awesome. Been awhile since I've seen one. Too bad you have to get rid of it.

How's that thing do in snow?

I had an Attex 6X6 back in the 1970s. It was really a blast.
You are right, it will go anywhere.

As for snow, We have a piece of land just north of Sedona, Oak Creek Canyon, it is higher and can get some true snow. Last winter it had snowed 8-10 inches, we grabbed sleds and Argo, and some sturdy pull rope and made a day of it. So the short story is, yes it handles snow great!. Having the skid steer type of steering anything under tire that can slip and slid ie: mud, snow loose gravel is a kick to wipe the buggy around in donut like twist and turns.

LC please explain

The Banana Splits was a Saturday morning program when I was a kid in the late 60's and early 70's. Not a cartoon, it was a bunch of "live puppets" (men in these weird looking suits like in "Where the Wild Things Are").

They ran around everywhere in their neon colored Argo 6 wheelers. I think whoever dreamed up this program had to be a dang hippy experimenting with all kinds of chemicals..............

Anyway, sorry for derailing the thread, I think we should go back to our regularly scheduled programming..............

Hunters and prospectors use them up here fairly frequently.
Snow, Mud, Rocks, Water... No problem!

Ice, not so much!

I have have a buddy that has 8*8 with tracks. We hall our fishing boats from portage to portage on very old logging roads in southern Ontario. (berry lake to dry berry) 20 ft fishing boat up a very wet rocky road, no problem. With 4-5 people and all the gear. This thing can go every were. The Power companies use them a lot.

Thanks for the explain on the Banana Splits, I have to scrap off some rust in the old head to recall the late 60's early 70's, this little guy looks good in its camo shell, no neon need ably. Bobski like the tent in your avitar, thanks for the post and stories.

The minute I saw it I thought of the Banana Spilts...now I have that dang theme song rattling around in my brain.

"Meet Bingo the gorilla, Fleegle the beagle, Drooper the lion and Snorky the elephant. They make up the wacky gang called The Banana Splits."
It will take DAYS to get this out of my head!

One Banana, Two Bananas, Three Bananas, Four,
Four Bananas make a bunch and so do many more,
Over Hills and Highways the Banana Bunchies go,
Comin' up to bring you the Banana Split Show,
Sha na na, na na na, na.

Wow! I accually remembered that from the top of my head!
Now I'm not going to be able to sleep!!
Thank's Guy's...............
