Agreed. Great deal.

A few things you probably already know:

- Find the nearest place with "off road" diesel. It is much cheaper than road diesel. The only difference is that they dye it red.

- Get diesel fuel conditioner...it helps take water out of the tank.

- Fill the tank after every use. It is a pain, but it keeps the fuel dry.

- Stabil has specific diesel fuel storage goop.

- Grease everything with a nipple religiously.

- Air filters are key.

- For smoothing roads and other surfaces, learn to use the bucket as a scrapper in reverse. Works great!.

Again, great deal.
