Hey Brian

Great that the wife loves it...really your tempted ??..she's quite the beast, I'd be green with envy..no room at my place to store her really, my garage is full front to back, top to bottom, and as you say you'll need a van to transport her..hmmmmm its quite a purchase..wonder if it will go for the asking price, haven't seen a 1/4 on ebay before..have to do a little research to find out if the price is any good or not.

Hi Not only do you need a big van, it also has to have a winch inside it to pull the beast in if it breaks down. This thing weighs a 1/4 off a ton , if you have a electrical failure you have to remove the tracks and push it then use winch to pull it up the ramps you have to have made at more cost.
Big tanks are not for the fainthearted cost a fortune to buy need a van to move them and ramps winch. Cant run in your garden it will chew the lawn up make a real mess need a garage just to store it and work on it. Plus you can have only one.
