    It’s a very handy tool to have. I use it to lift rounds to save back fatigue

    Looks like a good day at work!

    Use the same trailer here for just about everything. Highly recommend it for anyone looking at ATV trailers. Does hills and rocks no problem. Haven’t had a tip over yet.

    It’s a really useful trailer. I can’t tell you the number of times I flipped my old trailer navigating the woods and ridges and having to reload the trailer. The polar was expensive but worth it. It’s wheel base is wide and stable. I haven’t used the dump feature yet but it hauls plenty of wood and bales of hay

    My atv is an older 300cc and pulling a full load of green wood, it grunts go uphills and ridges. It does better in low range but I’m wondering if my atv is undersized. What size is yours?

    Honda Foreman 500. Entry level Foreman - no bells and whistles on it. It’s a workhorse.

    That’s a good machine and one I keep an eye out for a good used one with low hours/miles.

    It is almost a twin to our trailer that we've had for many, many moons now. I would highly suggest you cut a piece of osb to cover the bottom of it to keep it nice. I waited too long to do that with ours and now the bottom is not so good but you'd never know with the osb in there.

    That was the first thing that I did before using it except I bolted down pressure treated plywood. I thought about covering the bottom with sheet metal but had a couple scrap pieces of plywood so I went with that. Hope it holds up
