Robby Gordon is not a man known for speaking in riddles or taking half-credit for anything. The dude has won in everything from a NASCAR to an open-wheel car to a trophy truck. He's won the Baja 1000 and the Baja 500 three times each. He's earned his bragging rights and then some.

So, a few years ago when he said he was going to start his own UTV company, he made big claims right off the rip. In a nutshell, Gordon promised a line of affordable mini-trophy trucks that would dominate anything from the legacy brands.

Robby's rigs delivered on his big promises and then some. This is a 2023 Speed UTV Baja Bandit RG Edition. The Baja Bandit is a 77-inch wide, 225-horsepower, turbocharged desert racer sitting on a 95-inch wheelbase. The seller also opted for the Speed Key, which unlocks an E85 tune and up to 20 pounds of turbo pressure, which Speed UTV claims bumps horsepower to an even 300.

Stepping up to RG Edition spec added suede race seats, beadlock wheels, special graphics, window nets, a suede steering wheel, an orange powder coated roll cage, and a positive flow roof.

Speed UTV has a massive factory accessory catalog, and the seller opened his wallet wide when he ordered this beast. The full list of accessories is below, but it includes: a passenger side display, a factory spare wheel and electric jack, a 5,000 lb. winch, a full UHMW skidplate, and a glass windshield.

This Baja Bandit has 239 miles on the clock, so it's only just broken in. It's in immaculate condition, and is built to a super high standard. Just check out the welds on the frame. These suckers aren't just slapped-together niche machines. They're full-fat luxury desert racers for the uncompromising.
