Thing weighs almost 1100lbs, that would sink in the mud up here. I'll just stick to my quad and make 2 trips instead of trying to do it all in one trip.

Do you have a cart or trailer for hauling deeks behind the quad? Something like a trailer for yard work, like from sears or something?


I have been looking for a 10' jon boat for hauling gear ie; decoys, e-caller, e-caller speakers, batteries and blinds. Then putting guns, ammo, lunch and rain gear in the bed. It doesn't have to float, just needs to be intact. I'm using a calf sled right now and making 2-3 trips depending on how many guys are with me.

Then after getting gear out, coming back and getting everyone. We park about 1/4 to 1/2 mile from the spread. If I got the ranger, I could get everything and everyone out to the spread in one trip and save on set up and tear down time.

You mean if it didn't sink in the mud. That's why I was wondering if you had a small light weight trailer or if you were piling stuff on the quad.

Most farmers out here won't let you use the quads in their fields. That's why you see guys with those $1000 push carts, with bicycle tires.

Yes sir that's what I meant. Most farmer's are ok with atv's out here. But once they get it seeded you have to walk everything in.

$1000 bucks!?! I built mine for under 150, guess I need to make more and send em up your way to sell. We'll fund a trip to Argentina in no time.
