Finally had some time to take out the truck and have some fun...and get a little yard work started at the same time....
Used the truck for a good portion of the day and so far so good, everything seems to be working well....it could be a bit faster though, the long runs take a long time....the slow steering response is a challenge at times, but for the most part it does work well for this heavy model.
