Eastern VA. No such thing as too many Magnums. | It was good at putting the power to the ground. Good engine. Bad Transmission. (like all 86 series) It had the cruddy T/A and the backwards opening door. It also came complimentary with the transmission that will get into two gears at once. Once on the highway it wouldn't straighten out after a right hand turn, that was kind of not so nice to go into the woods. I think some check valve got stuck. It was a little odd being on the back part of the pivot, but not altogether bad. I'd only consider one if it is cheap cheap cheap. As in disposable. There not fun to work on, but what is? Its basically getting to be an old tractor, thats all. We gave ours to the harvest crew. I think the doors are missing now which solved the backwards opening problem. It is fast on the highway,actually too fast , for the worn out thing, but it pulls good. which is its primary task anyway. On a funny note, it has the hood on roller tracks. Good idea. very easy to get to. One day one of the guys was showing off and drove up near the gas pump real fast and stopped abruptly. the hood must not have been latched because it rolled right off and flipped upside down onto the ground. It was one of the more amusing sights I recall while standing in front of the shop. If you stare at it. the poor ardvark has an amazing resemblance to the mx magnum, except for the smaller front tires.
