Think I'm about to replace my '02 Trail Gator. Local dealer has a demo '19 TS and a TX at a slight discount, so I'm going to go look at them. Think I'm tending towards the TX. JD specs are rather vague, but I found something somewhere which said some of the low-end Gators have Kawasaki engines and some have B&S. I'd prefer to stay with Kawasaki because it served me well in the '02. (Also, have had more than my share of B&S lawn mowers.) Does anybody know if the 15.5 HP V-Twin engine in the TX is Kawasaki?
Also, think I understood the sales guy on the phone saying the TX has a plastic cargo box. Is that true? Maybe he said the TS. Not sure how well a plastic cargo box will hold up. He did say his TX has a spray-in bed liner, so maybe I misunderstood. JD specs just say "Best in class cargo box", which isn't too helpful.
