Buying Advice DR Powerwagon

Not a tractor, but just wondered if anybody has any experience with one of these? I picked one up pretty cheap to haul things up and down the hill.

I don't have that but commenting on DR products, I have half a dozen of them and all are very well built and thought out. I modified them slightly to suit my individual requirements but they work well and are very reliable. Just bought another tow behind leaf vacuum and their string lawnmower tow behind fence trimmer. The vac will soon get a workout as the leaves are starting to fall. The trimmer has been used on my pond banks and fences and works very well with a couple of slight mods to suit me.

Tons of them around here. Mostly used on hills and woodlands where a tractor wouldn't easily fit, or isn't need for other tasks.

Believe those and their brush mowers are their best sellers. We have a 2001 brush mower that works great. Parts list is online and they have everything I asked about in stock.

Thanks for the info, I picked it up Friday and haven't had the chance to try it on the hill yet. It seems pretty stable and easy to maneuver.

Just an update, after using it this week I'm pretty impressed. I haven't put too much weight in it yet, but it handles 200 lbs really well. It is very stable and climbs my 28 degree slope no problem. I do have to back up the steepest section to maintain traction, but that might not be true with a heavier load in the box.
