Show? I dont know of any situation that would need the traction offered by duals on all corners, but that would use R4 tires rather than R1s. Looks like they have a loader for it and a place to hitch a wagon to the front.

From the batwing hanging off the back, I'd guess ...... mowing ? :D

Have seen duels on steep roadside mowing outfits. First thought was a peatbog tractor, but i see the batwing on back also.

I want it, dont know what I would do with it, but I want it. I wonder if that is OEM or can I special order for my B3030?

I think I read in my owner's manual for my M8540 (which is a bigger sibling of the M5040) that duals were not allowed. My guess is the axles cannot handle the stress.
