RTV1140 Dirt Hauling

[JOHNTHOMAS]

Been actually using my RTV1140 for work. With the 2nd row seat up and the bed extended it will hold/haul 3 BX25 full bucket scoops of piled up topsoil. Guess it would haul more in weight but would fall off since I don't have the side boards. Moved about 20 loads of topsoil from my topsoil pile to my back yard and a front flower garden in the past few days. Done got my moneys worth out of it so can now be just for play. Actually it looks like I have another 10 to 15 loads left that I need to move which I'll do in a few weeks or days, depending on the weather. No longer just a toy. It's a mans working machine. Well, my wife drove it some also. So, a man and a womans working machine.

Good to know.... bet it rides a little differently with a full load in the rear!

Never noticed any difference in the ride but it did go slower up the hill and steep road in M 2wd. Not much difference in speed in low, loaded or empty. Only used 4wd coming down the hills for braking assistance after I didn't one time.
