It's Mike H. of arlington, TX. Decent guy, he's on the Ferret heaven email list. He's had the ferret since..summer of 07? He bought it from a guy in CA if I recall correctly.

Cool. I'd be too tempted to get rid of some of the moron drivers around here though.
Not exactly Russian or Eastern tech though.

RE: Re: Man Drives Tank to Work....ok it
I love the Ferrets - I wanted one pretty badly (there are quite a few with Chris Muys in Belgium - cheap too) until I heard some of the mechanical horror stories. Apparently they are prone to gearbox failure and it is a pre-select type gearbox. That and they like to tip if not driven properly (but then again don't they all). I love the fact that the hatches can break fingers really easily. All that aside they are really great vehicles.
