    We’ve been looking for a utility cart for my son to use to fill up his wood racks at the street. He’s only 8 so using a wheelbarrow is still a challenge for him and he’s been selling a lot of wood. My wife found this one on the tractor supply website this morning. It was $60 off today and we could save another $40 by picking it up - a 13 mile drive. Total was $106. Holds up to 1400 pounds. Inside dimensions 50” by 32”

    Great deal. Now he needs a little riding mower to pull it. That can branch off into other areas of wealth LOL

    Yeah that's a nice cart. I have one isn't much like that, except yours looks wider. The extra wish will be good when pulled behind a tractor or ATV. Mine when I stack wood in it, only 1 row deep ( packed like a pack of cigarettes) it gets really heavy. If there's any amount of hill, an 8 yr old will have problems pulling it or stopping it.

    I had a similar one years back i bought from Ocean State or Big Lots as the display model. My problem is i tend to overload things (ya think!) and it eventually broke. Good choice IMO. He'll always grow into it!

    That’s what I was thinking. It’s oversized for him at the moment but he should get years of use out of it

    There is a slight pitch to our driveway but south jersey is mostly flat. If he takes it across the yard and through the woods to his stand he won’t have a problem

    Those wagons are work horses. I have a yellow one I use up in the mountains for hauling out wood. Good deal.

    Grabbed one of those years ago but from northern tool. I used a couple nylon washers one the part that twists left/right for the steering as it was just a little to stiff otherwise. Worked out great.

    Also laid some boards onto the bottom of the mesh so I wouldn't have to gingerly pace each piece of wood into the wagon.
