Looks like a giant female sex toy on wheels. If you do make the purchase, DON'T TELL ANYBODY! And yes you will need to forfeit your man card

Here's something for $200 and another for $550 that will probably do you want.

Search craigslist or other classifieds.

That one you're looking at just doesn't look comfortable to me.

Thanks for the options, I looked at those. Trust me I lurk on craigslist as much as I do on here.

I am not looking for a project cart. I want something that I can get, use a couple of years and dispose of. The full size batts on those golf carts are RIDICULOUS.

Oh BTW, MAN CARD STILL IS INTACT!

Have you heard of... WALKING!

Is this how lazy we are.. 500 yards isnt that far. You might look into a bigger sized pair of pants to go with it and a motorized buggy to get you from the couch to the jon too, dont want to dump your pants cause you couldnt make it in time!

With those looks you would expect it to vibrate while riding! If it did it would have tragic unexplained accident while out in the field! rifle

Dang that is some expensive footwear...


Come on Guys, you can't blame a guy for wanting to ride around a large field at night in a silent cart, if not for anything more that the following reasons:

I stalked in January, it was 22 degrees, I can't imagine what an evening in August will be, but after a few back and forths the body gets tired. With one of these you can hunt longer and harder.

Snakes, I would rather run over them than step on em.

Efficiency.

Walking is cool, its "Ninja" its "Mohican" heck its "Texan".

This is an added tool to a skill set doesn't mean I won't ever walk again.

Ease up.
BB

I dont buy into the ATV/ side by side craze, honestly i believe they are for lazy people....which there are a lot of these days.

Your two feet will get you and there, and get you there quitely. Save that money for some gen 3 or 4 night vision.

This thing, in it's modifed form, would be great for a lone hunter that has a big animal or a long way to walk.

I just did a hunt where I walked over 5 miles in 24 hours with a 17 lb LR308 and shot a 175lb hog at the end of that time. The walk to the closest stand was about 3/4 of a mile. The furthest stand was right at 1.5 miles away. If I wouldn't have had access to a 4 wheeler, I'd had to quarter the hog there and made a couple of trips back and forth to recover the thing. and ended up walking alot further.

In this hunt, this kind of vehicle that I'm talking about would've been the bees knees out there. Big enough to carry all my gear and a 200-300 lb hog all by myself.

That would be an awesome thing right there.

OK if you can get by the looks and are willing to make a few mods, what the heck? Just need to man it up. Put a bench or wider seat on that seat head, remove the basket and put in something that can hold a sack and a rifle, maybe a second bucket on the back, work the electrics a bit for some added torque, and give it a decent camo pattern, then you got something passable. Just test out the load, speed and quietness first.

By itself I'm sure it will function, but if you go out with anyone be prepared to be ribbed about it continuously to the point you won't want to ride it ever again.

Some of you guys need to spend about 6 months in a wheelchair. Been there and done that, now I have to use a walker and a cane to get around. Anything to get field/hunt time is a benefit.

I could see it. Camo it out, put you a "screen" of something on the front like a little camo wall to hide behind while driving out there....

If any of my buddy's showed up in that thing, I'd keep my mouth shut then bring a couple of cans of pink and purple and red spray paint to the next hunt and give it the "raging" custom paint job it's begging to get, lol.

Chill out man it's just a little joke! I would have thought a guy with a $15k rifle might spend a little more for a well built machine rather than spending $900 on something that might not make it back to the truck on the first hunt!
