Wouldn't want to be going downhill and have to let off the gas . . .

Well, it does say Swamp-Cat. Swamps don't often have hills do they?

Not once you are in it, but you have to access that mushy area somehow . . . and some of the banks holding all of that swamp in can be pretty pitched.

I think it might give rolling down the hill a whole new meaning.

i took a argo in a swamp. it had to be winched out. the grass wound up on the axles and was like an anchor.

the engine and trans are located in the back of this machine with a combined weight of around 230lbs. so with a big guy in the front seat would make it very balanced out! hahaha you guys are funny!

I can't say I'd be interested in a snow vehicle if I had to worry about the proper load balance, especially when sidehilling...Bob
