We have them pulling hay wagons carrying round bales and just about everything else you could imagine. Thats a nice addition.

The military uses them to..900's mostly. Utility companies too.

FIL runs a small airport out here and they use one of the John Deere gators to pull airplanes in and out of the hangers (small single and double prop planes)
I think the uses for these things is unlimited.

I've noticed RTV900's popping up everywhere I look. In fact, I can see 4 of them through my office window with our companies hood racks and windshields on them that are being used by a construction company building a road about 100 yards from where our offices are.

We have a local green house and they pull a traine of small wagons with the potted flowers they are selling.

They said that it was the only utility veichle that started smooth enough to not dump all the plants over.

I wonder what other utility vehicles they actually tried. My gator XUV 850 will start smooth enough not to spill buckets of water in the back end, so I don't think it would make such a jackrabbit start that it would dump all the potted plants.
Maybe they think the accelerator pedal is an on / off switch. Some people do tend to drive like that :confused2:

Royal Carribean Cruises uses RTV's on their island (Coco Cay) in the Bahamas. I got pictures around here somewhere.

The biggest new customer we've seen is utility companies and construction. Those are such demanding applications they are moving to RTV's in swarms because they hold up so much better. Power companies also love the HST as they are going up and down hill sides for powerline maintenance.
