The turf truckster is the best utility vehicle, I have two and they are great. You can put a 100gallon water tank and a pressure washer in the back and pressure wash anywhere which I love. I often fill the bed with heaping dirt and it moves it just fine. The best thing is that it has three wheels and wide tires so it doesn't tear anything up when moving that kind of weight like two wheels up front does. Don'y worry about running it at top speed in top gear, I do it and it's fine. If you think about it lots of tricycle tractors had road high and no one thought twice about running along at 25mph. The one I use on a daily basis has a anderson 12v winch plug on the battery and that allows me to use it as a portable starting vehicle. It reminds me of a goosneck trailer in how it drives which allows very easy accurate positioning of the vehicle. I had the splines fail on the driveshaft one time but no problems, just drilled a 1/4 hole through both parts and put in a #12 grade 10 bolt. Before you think I am a hack, that was many years, hourse and beds full of sand and dirt ago. I think some of the early gators were tricycles.
We had one at work. It was soooo fun to drive. It went way to fast for a 3 wheel vehicle. These things were awesome but you had to be really careful. Especially working on a golf course where you weren’t always on flat ground. The hydraulic dump is a huge benefit. Never used the PTO on ours though.
Nice little yard unit!.....looks like the one in the background of the plastic explosives scene towards the end of Caddyshack. That one had a big sprayer in the box so my guess is that PTO would work good to run a roller pump for spraying.
Pretty cool auction find especially with a 540 pto. I brought a Kubota 4310 gstc tractor last week at a Ritchie bros auction along with a Kubota japanese tiller for it, a 600L sprayer and a flail mower for parts
My friend has one just like it. Question for you. His boy put the parking brake on. We can not figure out how to release it. Any idea how it works?? Thanks
That’s kinda wild that it has a pto and aux hydraulics. Now the search for attachments begins…. :D
I googled these out of curiosity and was surprised they still make them. I think $1600 is a steal.

That thing is pretty neat! I've looked at a couple online but didn't know they had that many features crammed in. Pretty handy.

Sweet little machine.
Neat machine! It has the usefulness of a pickup truck or tractor and the maneuverability (and safety hazards) of a Honda ATC. lol
Definitely a nice little rig surprised it has a PTO on it wonder what their intentions were behind that unless that’s just for a mower
Great price
I have similar how much quantity do you add for oil change
I honestly can’t remember. I sold this machine earlier this year and bought something newer. Great little unit though!!

On mine there is a knob above the parking break pedal. You have to pull out to release the brake.
Why does my Cushman turf-trucker blow oil out dipstick?
Guessing a blown head gasket
Where can I find one at??
Might find one not running at a parts yard for a decent price that needs little to no work.
Mine has 6968 miles so close
