Mark,
Thanks for the first hand account!
Cali,
I dont need one that is for sure, but my mother lives "over the river and through the woods' and was thinking of getting a golf cart, but it is a little rough for one of those I think, and for a little more you can get a "Kei" and the cab comforts are alot nicer. Of course then we would have to fight over it. I have seen some with an atv plow on the front.
I could also see the wife using it to feed the sheep when we put them down in the "SOuth 40" which doesn't have water yet
I could also probably register it as a tractor and drive it to work 5 miles away and run errends in it "Down to the village" So I find the vehicles inyriguing, but am also surprised that I dont see more as they seem to be the ticket as Mark described, just no diesel, but if their so great why doesn't everyone have one?
To be honest I dont see why any one would spend 10 large on and utv,rtv, etc except maybe the bobcat toolcat as that has a skid stear FEL on the front and maybe a 3pt pto on back? If that was the case, I could see owning one of them instead of a tractor in certain cases, maybe even mine.
In the end though I am just dreaming and exploring the options and a cheap hick so I will continue to put a platform in my bucket and use that to transport fencing and hay I will probably explore this world though with an old toyota as mentioned though and go form there...all it takes is time.
