[AT] OT Four wheeers

I use a Yamaha golf cart in stock form and carry an air tank, jumpers, a
tool box, gas can, etc. But I don't use it for towing or rough terrain.
It has been very reliable over the years.

My neighbor has had a Kawasaki Mule for about 10 years and has about
beaten it to death. He uses it for hauling deer out of the woods,
plowing snow, hauling firewood and rocks, carrying people around the
farm, and about anything else you can imagine. He has managed to tear
out a couple of U joints over time and has finally lost the final drive
in the transaxle last week. As I mentioned, he really works it hard.
