I drive mine everyday.........and I WORK it like it should be..........It is a tool to me, I depend on it as right now I do not have a back up vehicle. I can tell you they can be just like any other vehicle, so don't let ANYONE tell you different...........they tried that with me and I went out a did what I did anyway and love it. Yes parts are SOMETIMES more that a smaller car, but there are a lot less parts on these things and a lot less to go wrong.......they are a lot less confusing and if you are the slightest bit mechanical minded you should be able to trouble shoot anything on them in a hurry.
Now I have been wrenching on automobiles since I was old enough to hold a wrench and not hit myself(well I sometimes still do that) so maybe that has a lot to do with why I think they are so simple...........also I think that a lot of problems some have with them is the fact that they baby it or only drive them once in a while.........any piece of equipment is meant to be run or it will start being fussy.

.......I say drive the heck out of it and love every mile.......I have put thousands and thousands on mine.......biggest problem I had was the OLD style clutch pressure plate broke like they are prone to, other than that just fuel filters. I also run mine on whatever I can get my hands on that is flammable!!! Even put a second fuel tank on mine so I can make longer hauls with it.......I have had many days of 15 hour runs with it and it never missed a beat!!!
