My wifes been wanting one of those overgrown 'golf cart' jobs with a dump bed.

Any sugestions. the only one we have seen are the ones at tractor supply.

Cheaper is better.. trying to buy on a bidget. pretty much only thing it needs is seating for two.. automatic dump bed, and a topper of some sort.. hard or soft... windshield is nice.. but could live without.. etc.

Try the Kawaski Mule.....

If you want a Diesel and are willing to let go of a few more $$$ then go with the Kubota RTV

Mule is around 8K and RTV is 10K

My dad has an EZ-Go cart that he likes and sounds like it may be similar to what you need.
Gas engine, power dump, windshield, roof...
Not as heavy duty as a Mule or RTV but good for chores around the house and stuff.

I say go for a MINI TRUCK. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif I have a RTV900 and mini trucks and work wayyyyyyyyyyy more with my mini trucks than I do with the Kubota. I mean try loading material in these short bed UTV's with your loader and see where the product goes. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif Well unless you have a shovel and don't use your loader. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Run down the road even in a drizzle rain or when it's buggy out in a open cab UTV and then jump in the truck. Not to mention travelling at 20mph compared to 60mph when you want to.

Soundguy, I sure have enjoyed my ezgo workhorse.
It's about a year old and has about 160 hours on it now.
Not one problem with it and it uses very little gas.
You see where it gets to sleep at night, new F-250 outside!
Wife says I am crazy, she may be right.

Both Yamaha and Kawasaki have thier own versions and pretty well have the bugs out of em, but their close to 10 grand.
I've never seen a mini-truck before. What do those cost & do you have a link?

That's the one my dad has (although his is older) and really likes.

See my attachment for the picture of one. They are nice little machines and for $3750 you can have a truck that has a standard bed and $4750 you will haev one that dumps as well.

I bought a used diesel Gator w/power dump a couple of months ago from local dealer, after 2 days of running errands between house & barn, plus trail rides, rock picking, etc. - should have bought it 10 years ago. The diesel Gators have a 40 amp alternator which is handy for extra Winter lighting. Cost a grand total of $3700.
