    We went to a cousin's house across the creek (crick) and took 2 limbs off a big water oak. We managed to hoard a little farwood in the process. The Honda Pioneer had no problems hauling this green oak home... 20260416_131354.jpg

    With my neck I'd last about 30 seconds turned around like that. Thank God our car has a back up camera!

    Could it be mounted on the front of the tractor Jeff?

    My neighbor has that same Honda side x side. It gets run through the crick (creek in Ohio) regularly even up to the floorboards... Not sure about all the other brands, but they've had friends over with a couple other "lesser" brands that didn't fare so well in the crick. The Honda ended up towing them back to the barn and pushing them up on their trailers because their CVT trannies couldn't handle getting wet. I'm not sure what brands those were, but one of them came from Rural King.

    John's Honda is nice with the folding back seats that give the option of extra people or cargo.

    Do realize how annoying and royal PITA I know how to be.
    Last bad neighbor, in my area the adult children threatened my older neighbor
    I called a friend, bad neighbors house purchased, we remodeled interviewed buyers and sold property and made money doing it
    That’s the American way:handshake:

    No sir, it's a PTO driven grinder. Not hydraulic like a skid steer.

    Yes sir, that rear seat setup was a major selling point to me and shaft drive was the other.

    We tried that. Unbeknownst to the owner. It was a thought, but didn't work. Eventually this guy will f up more than he has, and it appears he had a pretty big mis step recently. It's only a matter of time with this guy.

    Deep water/mud running will still take its toll over time though...
