Using one of those large plastic totes to haul water to water my fruit trees. Filled it all the way up and saw the tires squat, let out quite a bit of water. Finally hauled 175 gallons and know that was too much. I have hauled wood and know I have hauled over 1100 lbs. in it. What is the max...

I knew I could count on everyone for good advise. Thank you all very, very much. XTROOPER

What is the smallest sized trailer I should buy in order to tow my RTV 1100? I have been having the dealer pick it up, but that is getting old and expensive. Thanks XTROOPER

RogerWh0 I just used wood. The rack is versatile and bullet proof. I had made the bed extensions to haul more wood. This works very well for me. XTROOPER

Outstanding Muleman! XTROOPER

My experience is exactly the same as 628pm. 24 m.p.h. top end, usually 10-15 and that is plenty good for me. 2008 RTV 1100 XTrooper

Yes Doc, I'm getting the heebee jeebees waiting for the grass to get green. I have a very large lawn and finally got to the point were I got the proper equipment to keep up with it (Husky Zero Turn mower). I am certainly chomping at the bit to get out there and get to spring-summer-fall...

RSAW I have had the RTV 1100 since 2008. For my purposes, it has been OUTSTANDING and in fact, right on target. I purchased a UTV from a company that makes tractors because that was what I was looking for. I have no need to travel @ speeds above 24 m.p.h. I have hauled firewood for the last 6...

Chainsaw Twoguns Your powers of observation are very keen (and a little bit unsettling!) You are correct on all your observations. I learned the hard way that saving money on things like chainsaw oil costs big time in the long run. I am retired and I think of my job now as cutting firewood...

Golite I just cut a piece of metal, drilled two holes for that existing light mounting bolts, painted the metal and attached the light mount to it. I leave the light on through the winter, but when I go in the woods for firewood, the light gets removed by me before Penn's Woods removes it for...

Weight for Snow Plowing For me the weight of approximately 300-350 lbs. seems to work fairly well. I did put chains on the rear this time around. I tried to push the snow banks back as far as possible prior to the storm. I'm in fairly good shape, except another 4 inches of snow is forecast, not...

Two Guns, you are absolutely correct regarding NOT using Walmart cheap oil for Husky chainsaw. I used it when I first bought a new Husky 359 and burnt up the cylinder. The dealer I bought the saw from did not want anything to do with helping me. It was a new saw and another dealer did fix it...

Weight for Snow Plowing CPSSEALS-I have a piece of rubber across the bottom of the plow blade. It was put on by the plow dealer. It is about 1 1/2 inch thick (I don't know what that would be in the metric system). I find it works really well and since I have a shale driveway, it seems to take...

Blizzard Baijiu, it's more like silt in these bags, I originally used them for flood control many moons ago and have not had any problems regarding the salt. However, my wife used to pull around rock salt in a radio flyer wagon, you can imagine what happened to the cute red wagon, now the the...
