    :rofl: :lol:

    I'm certain he means 800 lbs in cargo.
    These carts are rated @ 800 lbs, and they will haul the mail. ( Or wood ;) )

    Can't remember tire pressure off the top of my head, but yeah 800 psi would be a bit excessive.
    :loco: :crazy:

    I bought a cart like that from northern tool a few years back. They used to be red, now they're black. 1400lbs rating on it and I have no plans to get that close to the limit, its just nicer pulling it around the yard with the 13" tires.

    the only thing I had to "fix" was after assembly, the steering was too stiff for practical purposed and I didn't want to loosen the bolt on the yoke. I put a couple nylon washers in there, tightened it up and never looked back.............I think its been about 6 years now. The other thing is (of course) to lay some boards onto the mesh bed of the trailer itself-for strength. I hauled yard waste mainly leaves with it at first but then it got too convenient not to haul firewood with it. Currently sits filled with wood in the garage at the cottage.

    He went to (I believe it was) the Carolinas for his daughters wedding on the beach.

    Then stayed on for a bit.

    I'm with you bogieb!!! :yes: I can't do the "flame thrower" stuff anymore but I like them zippy! I gotta be very careful because I've had 9 esophagus ablations, "healed now" from cancer and I take two pills a day for acid reflux. There used to be a wing place down here that has folded up called "wings to go" they were the original, first buffalo wing franchise. Man I miss them... :(

    Clear and cold this morning. Full moon last night was awesome. We are headed out for our walk. the dogs have decided that under the covers on the bed is the only place they want to be. After yesterday's rain had us stay home, it will be nice to get out this morning.

    S'all good. Yes, the cart it's rated for 800 lb capacity. Each tire takes only a few lbs of psi. ;)

    We just use this primarily to bring wood in that is stacked on the porch. We have another that we hook up to the 4 wheeler to bring wood down to the porch.

    I once remember buying a small wagon from TSC for hauling wood. Was supposed to haul a couple ton if I remember right. Probably had around 500 lb on it when both front wheels did a spread eagle. Unloaded wood, pulled it to the house and then returned it. They were surprised but no problem getting money back. I always take their estimates with a grain of salt now.

    Surprised that the noon forecast did not change the amount of snow forecasted for tomorrow night. That is strange as they usually change 3 or 4 times a day.

    The guessers are going crazy here. Basically they are saying to check back with them and they update as they know more .:) . With Milwaukee to the South of us, and Chicago further to the South, you'd think they'd at least take a swing at it.

    I have to get the snowblower out of the shed today and into the garage. Also werewe're getting our Christmas tree today. I'm not looking forward to cleaning the garage to get my motorcycle far enough forward to get the blower behind it . I need to get some more shelving / storage that's off the ground into my garage. I won't be able to fit a full size truck in my garage until I get the garage floor edges clear.

    I'm debating if I want to put the snow plow on or not. Sooner or later it is bound to happen that we'll need it.
