What is the hardest you have worked your RTV 900?

John: I left Chicago in 1966 at 19 and went into the Navy. I did six years as an enlisted man (made it to ET1) and then six years as an officer (Nesep Program). I got out in 1978 and moved to Texas.</P>


I was raised in Roseland and then moved out toward Midway Airport in 1961. Went to Leo High at 79th and Sangamon. I still go up there regularly to hit the culinary trifecta.....Home Run Inn pizza, White Castle hamburgers and Portillo's Italian beef sandwiches. We have decent barbecue and Tex-Mex down here in Texas, but you can't get a decent pizza to save your life.</P>


Have a great time in Chicago.</P>

Morning Men,</P>


The only thing I can say about how hard my Kubota works me is:</P>


SAND IS HEAVIER THE ANY OTHER GROUND COVER!!!! PERIOD.</P>


We play Tonka Toys.</P>


My neighbor has a B17 with a loader. My Turf Model with power dump.</P>


I have loaded mulch to thebottom of the roof. Dumped where needed.</P>


I have loaded top soil about 2/3rds up the back screen. Dumped where needed.</P>


I have loaded gravel about half way up the back screen. Dumped where needed.</P>


I have loaded sand about 1/4 way up the back screen. SHOVELED HALF OF IT OUT OF THE BED BEFOE THE HYDRO'S WOULD DUMP IT. I hate work.</P>


Granted in all the situations above the poor little Kubota was taxing the rear suspension but it handled it just fine. </P>


There is no more sand in my future, except at the beach, with a plastic shovel and pail.</P>

Yes, sand is heavy, And yes, sand is very bad on everything you put in it, or around it !!!</P>


There has been many pieces of equipment screwed up because of sand. Will just tear up brakes, myGod, BEARINGS ,rollers, gears, just name it, it will destroy it !!!!!!</P>


Personally, don't want anything I own, EXPECIALLY THE RTV's, around sand !!!! It's just minature grind stones waiting just to jump in ~~~~~~~~</P>

TWO GUNS: Glad you posted something-I got tired of readingthe same thing so many times since yesterday.</P>


But it sure is fun riding the river banks and bars-sand included. I am afraid I'll just have to repair and replace.</P>


So far the most work by my 1100 is hauling three six packs ofBudlite/cooler in the bed and a six pack in the front seat-handy-on the river bank. </P>
