Good thing for me is she cant drive a stick :-). Got it in the mud today,
found out first thing to buy for it is a winch. I did the stupid thing and
stoped in mud, wanted to test the tires, not as good as I hoped. Went and
got one of the tractors to pull it out, and got it stuck too. Had to get a
second tractor to push the first to take slack off tow strap, then had to
use chain and lengthen everything. Second tractor is new, so had better
tires. It pulled it out without much trouble. Kaki does look pretty good
with mud. Now I just have to wait until next weekend to see how it does on
dry trails. Already have 500 miles on it and Love It.
