[QUOTE="Nowland Farms, post: 153022, member: 2797"] Guys, I use a Polaris 500 on the farm but also use what is consider to be the Grandfather of the current day Mules and the 4 wheelers. Below are a couple of pictures my nephew Jake on my M274 Military Mule. The Military Mules were made from about 1956 thru 1970. There were about 10,000 Military mules made and about 1/2 of these were left in Vietnam when we left. I'm sure some of you Vets will remember these Mules. They have either a 2 or 4 cylinder air cooled motor, 3 speed tranny w/reverse, 2 speed transfer case. positive traction front and rear axles. One wheel dosen't spin unless they all do. Weighs less than 900 pounds since it is all aluminum and is rated to carry 1000 pounds (more than it weighs). Highway speed is about 25-30 MPH. I converted this one to electric start because I got tired of yanking on the cord. This thing will go anywhere and haul just about anything. It is the utlimate Mule !!!!
