Knock off sherp

I agree! Best of the bunch!!

Whistling diesel’s the best

Plus he drives real sheeps not knock offs

@@carsongwin1816 Ok, you got me there. WD is freakin wild!!!

NIKOLA TESLA was NIKOLA TESLA ! original inventor for peaple

Touche, Mr. Nikola Tesla. (smile)

EXACTLY!! Seeing people in the comments championing such laziness is disturbing.

The only similarity between a Sherp and a FatBoy (FB) is the concept. Sherp is self sustaining and backwoods repairable. FB is complicated 1. FB, good luck repairing your steering 2.Sherp provides minimal tools, but that's all you need. 3. FB is maintenance free, heh heh heh that means when it breaks down you can't maintain it. LOL The similarities are skin deep. Sherp is for true backwoods, FB is for Glampers. I would love a head to head 1K excursion just to prove the point.

:)

Busta Rogers fraud

🤣

hugo w it really is.

I am ok with it lol more Sherps the better

Yes, this is typically of a Quebec company. " Oh here a idea that works let do the same". And I can say that because I'm from there. I seen so many corner store copying the next and killing the 2 store because of the little market left.

@@mxadema lol indeed and as a somewhat wry observation . If the Chinese had done this to a us company there would be hell to pay .but as it's the Canadians doing it to the Russians then there is nothing to see here move along

Well I see it the same way as snowmobiles, they are all kinda the same.

Russian blueprint.

@@noidontthinksolol uh they claimed "Years of research" for the fat truck...

lol

This is Canadian, and Canada in invented the first ATV, and FIRST amphibious in 1959, the Jigor, you may want to do some history about snowmobiles too, a little company called Bombardier, most popular and highest sold ATV on earth?, but we are are not bragging eh

@Der Schwindel nope

Nonsense. Of course it's a Sherp. There is no way to recreate all your skills because ... Another Sherp comes out! Hahaha

It looks like a Sherp but the underlying tech is completely different. This thing is much more complex mechanically. Not really a good thing in this use case. And the price is stupid high. For that money they could have gone electric with a huge battery pack and 4 hub motors. Could run tools, Air, charge on a solar array or wind turbine. Maybe it'll do well in Canada but yes its definitely a Sherp ripoff

Don't worry, if anyone actually studies these things they will notice immediately the complexity of this pretender. Sherp is simplicity for the common Prepper, Survivalist and Enthusiast. This thing is for Glamping.

this thing is like a CAT wheeled excavator converted to off road use

@@bruceleealmighty THIS☝🏻

I'd rather take the sherp. it sounds better than a fat truck. it's just a copy of the sherp.

and the kubota engine in the sherp is apparently legendary, kubotas in general have a good rep.

2,500 miles

8 to 10 days driving 12 hours a day if you fill all 5 fuel tanks.. ;)

@Ramadin Bawdiip Yes, I really like the articulated steering,.....pros and cons,.....but ,...more moving parts, more parts to break, smaller interior,...... I do love the K.I.S.S concept: Keep It Simple Stupid.

Lol true.

Haha same

Absolutely true there. The Sherp is 10x more simplistic and any breakdown can be handled with a small bag of tools and parts provided with your purchase.

I doubt you would be able to sell it for the price of sherp though. Don't know why would anyone buy it from you when they could buy a sherp themselves.

@@kamencic stop shitting on our dreams of somehow getting a Sherp! God Dam it! Lol JK

"Toyota Sienna" Lol that's a Honda Odyssey See how stupid of a statement that is? You don't call your toaster a "shameless copy" of the first one ever invented, even though they are identical in almost every way.

@@specialopsdave excuse you

Not even a minimal copy of a Sherp. Complicated steering, engine and comfort mechanism. It wont last a thousand miles. Would love to have a head to head 1 month challenge with this pretender. It only passed the EPA because of it's complexity. The Sherp is a real survivor vehicle. This is for Glamping.

@@TheJimyyy HA HA HA I love sarcasm

SHERP is cool! That`s a SHITE!

Yes you are right.. they used them in Military's and in movies..

Isn't sherp a Ukrainian run company?

@@mwngtombing4970 Yes, Russia together with Ukraine

I am surprised sherp hasn't sued them for copying the style or design!?

@@stek96 it`s only Russian company and was made only in Russia

made in CANADA better quality and costs more

@@jackstone8238 Christ, Jack, just because it's Canadian doesn't mean it's better. I share a continent with Canada, as I live in North America. I still see the Fat Truck as it is, a shameless copy-paste of the superior Russian product.

@@jackstone8238 its more complicated, that's for sure. when that fancy hydrostatic transmission needs a rebuild i don't think it'll be cheap. reliability we'll only see in the future but given it costs more than the sherp how many will actually buy it?

@@jackstone8238 no. more modern yes better quality no more reliable no. the sherp is built with chain drive and other features that make it alot rougher but easier to repair and more reliable, it comes with a tool kit to fix the things that might break. this is far more modern but if it breaks your not going to be able to fix it without ordering expensive parts

If it's a copy, it's definitely a very bad one. The complexity alone is an invitation to disaster and breakdown. The steering mechanism alone will stop most simple repairs. It's EPA standard because it's complicated.

Sherp isn't the original all terrain vehicle to be able to drive on water and side by sides have been around since at least the Honda Odyssey (not to be confused with the minivan), while it is in a class of it's own it definitely doesn't offer anything new.

@@RoCkShaDoWWaLkEr No vehicle has ever shown it can match the capabilities of a Sherp. Look up their records trekking to the Arctic Circle

@@Studio23Media I'm not saying it isn't a kick ass all terrain vehicle, I'm just saying Sherp uses technology already in place so the Fat Truck didn't copy Sherp as the OP implies.

Honestly seeing what they are passing off as a “Sherp” when they show the trailer and everything you don’t see like fuel tanks auxiliary heaters, nothing like what a sherp would offer. It’s borderline defamation! Lol

@@RoCkShaDoWWaLkEr it did

Thought Challenger unbelievable

🤣😂

He said 127K for the Fat truck. Sherp dealership in Winnipeg sells for 135K.

@@davidoakley3256 Well, this is still a knockoff.

@@myytchannel6632 yeah ok, i guess since Ford marketed the first pickup truck, every other one is just a knockoff, and since Suzuki market the first quad atv, all the others are just knockoffs. Guess the sherp is just a TerraJet knockoff then.

@@davidoakley3256 Winnipeg price would be Canadian dollars, no?

@@kingstonsean yes, but considering the fat truck is made in Canada I assume their price is Canadian also.

Yes, and simplicity thy name is Sherp. They added complex steering and drivetrain so any breakdown means you are stuck. Unlike Sherp which is user repair friendly.

@@bruceleealmighty think about applications though. Russia is remote im not sure you can overnight parts from anywhere. Canada has some remote spots but this is geared towards weekend warriors

​@@jonnyg9330 Sherp is completely off the Shelf, there are no specific parts to Sherp. You can find parts for it by giving dimensions and descriptions entirely. That and the parts concern is almost nill, due to simplicity and the few parts that are included in your tool bag. I commented on the weekend warrior aspect within this comment thread as well, There were just so many errors to talk about to all the people about this vid.

Cool …but I’ll just get a Sherp😑

It doesn't have every aspect, it's much worse

It has big tires and a short wheel base, it’s not that unique lol. It has a caterpillar engine and a solid transmission. You fan boys are silly

@@petermello55 how am I a fanboy? It’s just the truth. Everything this can do the sherp can do, it’s the same model, and if it came down to a court of law, I bet money sherp would win.

@@twizl4 do you think Ford should sue chevy, LG should sue Samsung, Peterbilt sue Max trucks, Wal-Mart sue Target? Like I said big tires and a short wheel base are not unique. It’s a good thing, yes it’s similar but so is everything else that’s sold. The magic that makes the world go round.

@@petermello55 that’s not the same thing, TVs and vehicles often have similar form factors, but you want me to believe that they just stumbled upon this design AND put sherp in the title. Quit acting like this isn’t infringement. Your the fanboy here. Anybody who can see past their nose can realize this is clearly a copy.

Snowmobile is a much better mountain snow vehicle. There is nothing that can out do a mountain sled except a helicopter.

MultiPurposeReviewer Katrina was so bad not even this thing could get through it

@MetaBboy ?

MultiPurposeReviewer only problem is you wouldn’t be able to tell which vehicle you’re looking at because THEY ARE EXACTLY THE SAME! Edit: I agree completely with the emergency-aid part of your idea.

@@kuntrybruh296 Bulshiite! In the aftermath of Katrina (remember the horror of the Superdome???) when "Brownie" and Fema took days to get in, the news media was all over the place. With decent leadership and more tools like the Sherp (or this knock-off) help could have arrived way faster.

That and it looks like the transmission and Engine a way more over complicated than the Sherp. I think the real advantage of the Sherp is that its easy to fix and maintain which is a plus if you get into trouble in a place were you could only be rescued by another Sherp....or god forbid it dies in a bog or swamp that you can't even walk out of. I've sen the crazy places people take these. You might as well be on Mars if you run into trouble.

You can't say that without knowing the technical aspects. Obviously, the controls are very different and it has "tank turn" contra-rotation. Patents are a thing but they are building this and no comment from Sherp yet.

No winch??

it's true what a rip off

It has a smaller fuel tank.

The 🅱️ wagon

Don't call it G-wagon it's a fat-wagon! Can't you see it has multiple colors to choose?

If they rip off the G wagon like they tried to here. It wont be much competition. Complicated steering engine, and drivetrain mechanism, The Sherp is user repair friendly.

@@bruceleealmighty you can get used military Gs as well they are a bit more similar to the sherp in terms of use but the thing is mb already makes the complicated expensive luxury version that is still rathe capable so in the end the niche for the ripoff fatwagon isnt there

@Stable Genius that's the sound of the police

It’s a wolf in sherps clothing It’s a hybrid dog 😜

You don't call your toaster a "shameless copy" of the first one ever invented, even though they are identical in almost every way.

@@specialopsdave actually you do. Why? Because simplicity is its origin. Self explanatory. Bad analogy.

@@wannabeangler Well how about calling every single minivan a shameless copy of the Honda Odyssey? Or every ATV a shameless copy of the first ATV ever made?

it is a safety leak and comtaminent hazard. Honestly i have had both. The sherp is cheap and chain driven. The Fat Truck is hydrostatic. Believe me there is NO COMPARISON in my opinion from having both.

@@chriskriaris4304 sherps break down and you have no one too work on it thats whats happening...foreign engine with no part numbers

He is a similar model as mark zuckerborg

Jeah, finally, and even this Fat Truck looks allmoust the same, i think this is better quality, because russians cant make annything to last.

@@jaunteraudi817 wrong... everything russian is built to last

@@hansdampf1921 The Russians have a different concept of reliability. In the west we think of it as that it won't break down, whereas the Russians think when it does breakdown, it will be easy to fix.

@focke wulf You know, i have owned allmoust all russian cars.....i have been driving them and repairing them and they all are garbage, every single man in a russia dreams of a normal car.....and you have to be very short minded to drive russian car arround in these days, and only poor people drives them in russia, or just because there is no other alternative. And trucks are the worst, or even tractors. Why do you think, that even ir russia all normal farmers witch can afford, work with John Deere, Valtra, New Holland, Case ...everything else but not their own, because with normal machines you can earn money, not to waste it. The same with cars. And where i am, if someone use russian truck, the first thing everyone is doing - swap engine and gearbox, form a Volvo, Man, Scania, Daf.....anny otgher brand, but not their original, because original is garbage, no power, no quality, fuel consumption is in sky. I jsut have lived that russian car life, i know what it is and never back again.

@@jaunteraudi817 I had a Russian Lada Niva..it was a good car!...you think about old Soviet cars...but Nowdays Lada, Kamaz, Maz, Uaz, Rus Tractor, and Rostselmash ..etc.. have good vehicles...

I hope so.

Nah, this is so complicatedly mechanically different, it wont get past the first lawsuit. Anyone that buys one of these without comparing it to the details of a Sherp is neither a Prepper, Survivalist or Enthusiast.

@@bruceleealmighty yes while the fat truck uses joystick electric over hydraulic/hydrostatic Drive and the Sherp uses a manual transmission with brake calipers and roller chain drive. 90% of John Q. Public isn’t going to know that, or know that these are different brands all together and a good lawyer only needs to point out that both Riggs look almost identical, meaning fat truck is trying to use Sherp’s name/looks Recognition to their benefit. As pointed out by almost everyone who’s know seen a fat truck on KZfaq has pointed out it’s Obvious copy of a Sherp with some minor changes to the overall functionality of the vehicle. Dam it I should have been a lawyer!

@@adamhensel4877 Actually and in some minor cases unfortunately the shape is of little consequence when it comes to litigation. There are several vehicles that are in most cases conceptually more similar to Sherp than Fat Truck. All will not find litigation possibilities by way of Sherp or it's owners. Sherp did not patent concept or shape, it merely registered its configuration as the concept and shape is open by way of Russian government trials. This is the same commissioning that has been done through Russian hierarchy even when it was the CCCP (USSR). Nah, nothing is going to happen here. In the world of patents and concept interpretations are abundant. Again, these vehicles have little similarity other than superficially and virtually cosmetic.

@@bruceleealmighty while I don’t know what patients they have on concept or shape or design. What they would have working for them is Icon infringement, that’s where I would see the lawsuit coming up. But I’m also talking about the U.S. where lawsuits are breakfast affairs. And if this is even applicable in the U.S. because Sherp is Ukraine and Fat Truck is Canadian. I’m sure someone will try and make a buck there though, weather is has to go to a world court or can be settled in another country would be interesting to know.

cpt awesome different in name same in function

That is sherp vihecles.

Basicly the Fat truck is a Less reliable and Less capable copy of a sherp

Angelica Dela cruz tf is a “vihecle”

@cpt awesome how is sierra different from silverado when both are made by the same company under one roof in indiana?....as for the fat truck while its canadian it still is a copy/paste and a little photoshop of the sherp...ride safe amigo

canada: it's the derp sherp russia: they took our jerrrrrrbbbbssss

I'll bring the rope so I can pull everyone else out when THEY get stuck...

Avtoros Shaman 8x8 will drag both of these sherp and fat truck away 😂

@@briangreen8887 So can I bring the 10 x 10 Sherp Ark then? Ha!

Sherp USA Dealer You can bring your attachment or trailer because a sherp is not road leagal the thing is slow by the time you bring it I be gone with the shaman hunting rescue etc. it's got the suspension and amphibious it's just better The sherp with the trailer is not manoeuvrable but the shaman is because it's a complete package. The shaman avotoros 8x8 70mph road legal beats the sherp fat truck and not destructive to the environment. Compare tires design the shaman is friendlier to the environment that's why the Russian design it for.

@@briangreen8887 Too bad Shaman hasn't figured out how to import into the USA. Figure that out, buy one for over twice the cost of a Sherp, figure out how to license it without a title, bring it to our track and I'll bring the rope to pull you out of the first swamp you try. I love Shaman, I've tried to figure out how to import them, but the fact remains, they are not as off road capable as a Sherp.

REALL SHERP ... AND SOME OF performance kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aJtki7mmybfLYIE.html This new thing is playing in sand box :-)

It's a "Sherplicate"

Drive train wise yes but the Sherp is a much simpler drive chain...literally.

I agree.

Nah, bobcat isnt amphibious

And it can hold 8 people and it floats

I've fixed both bobcats and case skidsteers chain drive is not better than hydraulic drive

Just a very bad one. Steering prone to breakdown. Engine and drivetrain not easily user repairable.

To bad there is no concept of copyright law in Ukraine/Russia

@@userasdf1546 you r wrong

Or you could get a Sherp The ark

You should look up Trekol. It's not nearly as hardcore all terrain as the sheep but it beats most vehicles and it has a lot more cargo and is road legal with a much higher speed.

Not to mention less storage space, less fuel tanks, much more maintenance (hydrostatic Bah) etc etc...

I've been in a Sherp. If you have the means and you like going through bogs and swamps its worth it. Its also surprising fun to fish and swim off of. But yeah it is expensive. Ouch

@@specialopsdave There's many examples of different looking ATV's Google them.

@@villanousspyder405 But are they competitors to the SHERP? Certainly not.

I agree.

No different than what the Chinese do with everything lol

Like Russia doesn't copy the west. Russia is the 2nd biggest technology thief behind China. Anyway, if it's a copy, Canada is a country with "Rule of Law", unlike Russia, and the Russians can bring suit if it's a copy, which it isn't.

They made the steering better/easier and getting in and out easier the individual fold down seating in the rear is an improvement in my opinion. That's just what I got from the video.

@@vaughnburrows I don't know. I think the simple benches in the back of the Sherp are better since allot of people I see with these things are usually just 1 to 2 people and they use the back for cargo or the odd extra passenger. Also the Design of the Sherp lets you open the front window when you're in water....This doesn't look like you can open the front at all when driving.

@@loganholmberg2295 The Beauty of it all is that I prefer the fold down seats to use it as a family adventure vehicle and you seem to prefer the regular benches but now both you and I have options, now they just need to bring down the price some how without sacrificing quality. Not saying I'm going to buy one, but you never know when an extra 100,000 could end up on your lap.

Does seem a little pricey for renting it . In a year and half you could own one .

bUt It'S wiDeR

The extended version will be called "21 Jump Seat" Johnny Depp will be in the ads😅😅😅

i just saw one today lol coming out their plant

Hey they added a roll cage, a better ladder and seats....yeah no they half assed it and just made a more complicated Sherp which I think is stupid.

thats right so when it blows a gear drive in the water your stuck and have to wait to get towed or sink your want to be a sherp

Somewhat like Ski-Doo and Band-Aid control their markets with the name, Sherp has definitely cornered this market with its name.
