We bought one a few years ago from Tractor Supply. I havent seen any on their lot in the last couple of years, even before the scamdemic.
SWMBO loves it. I despise it. She putters around the farmstead on it, tending her flower beds, fruit trees & such. Its ok for that.
I use it to run around the farms. It is not a comfortable ride. The drive belt is centrifugally engaged as the throttle is depressed. It jerks & jumps in forward or reverse. Forget being able to ease up to a trailer tongue. Since what it can pull is light, I generally just get close & then pull the trailer up to the hitch.
Oh, and the brakes. On any kind of incline I have to use both feet on that little pedal & stand on it for any kind of control.
Speed. Ours might get 25 or so mph. No way will it do 40.
When we bought ours they were being built in Louisiana. Theyve since moved away from there. I doubt that finding a service center in our area is possible.
So far, the only problem weve had with it came when a weld broke on the front of the bracket to which the engine is mounted. Really lousy weld job. I swear it was done by a blind monkey. I took care of that & so far the rest has held together.
My opinion, if you havent figured it out already, is that you should RUN, not walk, away. There is a reason it costs $$$$ less than the good ones.
