That is a well bought RTV Geohorn. Hope you get many years service out of that machine.
Thank you, PawPaw... It was a lucky-find for me (but unfortunate for the previous owner.). It was originally purchased by an electrical-contractor who owned it for only a few days and apparently became disenchanted with the top-speed.. (as you know Kubota’s top out around 25mph)... and went to some other brand, returning it to the dealer apparently. The person I bought it from acquired it from that dealer... he was / is an airline mechanic in the DFW area and planned to use it on some hunting property he was planning-for.... but had the misfortune to shortly be diagnosed with a need for an organ-transplant .... and felt the need to abandon his property-purchase...therefore he listed the RTV and I responded, and paid him his asking price.
I wasn’t sure I had a real need for it.... but now, after a year and a half.... I use it ALL the time for everything from inspecting the property around the ranch here, to carrying the garbage to the front gate trash-cans, to cruising the runways for thorns and killing wild hogs, etc. etc. It’s a great little work-machine that I even use to pull a light utility-trailer around when trimming brush, carrying a generator around to power an electric chain saw (I prefer electric chain saws to gas because they are quieter so as to hear cracking trunks and fellow-worker’s conversation, and they don’t have to be pulled and pulled and pulled for tricky-starts, or smoky exhaust, etc etc.)... or to carry the generator/welder around to repair gates or other welding jobs around the place. MUCH easier to mount and dismount than getting in / out / in / out of a pickup truck for opening/closing gates or picking up branches, etc. I don’t need speed.... 20-25 is exhilarating enough over central Texas terrain.
And it’s great for showing visitors around the place since I mounted a school-bus seat in the bed. (It is held to the floor with removable lynch-pins and has seat belts like all modern school bus seats... I can remove or install it in minutes.)
Yep... if any of you are contemplating a RTV... quit It. Pull out your checkbook and get one!
