 From GT to MB
Why would some one go from a Gatortail to a Mudbuddy without reverse? Thought reverse was the most needed thing on a MM?

 Re: From GT to MB
You thought wrong. The most important thing in a MM is being able to get where a traditional outboard can't. Reverse is a luxury.

 Re: From GT to MB
Passed in front of the TV last night and seen Willy and Jase in a GatorTrax with a Mud Buddy hanging off the back. Kinda surprised me. I thought they were big GTR supporters.

 Re: From GT to MB
Why would someone go from a benelli to a mossberg? I think you know the answer.

 Re: From GT to MB
This is the mud motor revolution.
Gdlt is the best thing till you drive a gdsd. Gdsd is the best thing till you drive a mbsd. Mbsd is the best thing till you drive either gt or pd.

 Re: From GT to MB
I have went from a GTR to a Mud buddy for a year. Much rather drive the Mud buddy. Half the vibration and drove much better in my opinion. Went back to a GTR for the fact that a GTR has reverse. Also was a deciting factor that Mudbuddy has a dealer (Boat Dr.) about 45 min from me. My local GTR dealer (Terrebonne marine)

 Re: From GT to MB
I had a mb and it was a good motor. No complaints other than no reverse.
Not sure why the dont add reverse to the sport frames.
Another thing, when I had a mb there was never a time where I said "I wish I had reverse".

 Re: From GT to MB
Well I love the way my GDSD is designed and runs. However, not having a clutch sucks a big fat ass dick.
