That looks like work. I need something like that around here. Either the Simplicity fixed with its trailer or a work-horse like that. With the trailer I have too wide a turn radius. Wish I could wake up and find that hunk in my driveway.

That is a great price for that.

Negatives are wont turn very easy-have to lean into turn due to one front wheel.
Slow speed if trying to get between point A and B.
He has close to $1000 in new parts alone in fixing it up. Go with caution as $2000 cheap for all that.

Always slow for me trying to get from point A to point B. How is that a negative? Okay, are you suggesting a four-wheel Gator-like vehicle rather than that? I don't need "won't turn easy" and "have to lean into turn" is tough for someone who has a tendency to list at the best of times.

Yes, a 4 wheeler is much easier to operate. The original 3 wheelers are illegal to sell because they are dangerous. Then again a new one is $9,000 and up for a good one. I wouldn't suggest buying a knock off as parts are impossible to get. All parts on these things are made of gold and designed by van Gough

I really appreciate the help now rather than later having ya'll telling me why I made a mistake buying such a vehicle.

Once you own a good one, you will wonder how u lived without one.
Speed-don't need Razor speed (60+ mph) but original gators only went about 10-15 MPH-trust me WAY to slow.
Deere-ok now but pay for green paint.
Polaris-solid but the noisiest of bunch. Great dealer network as does Deere.
