Welcome, Mountain, and good to hear that you got yours through the system.
Not that I understand the urge to drive them on the road, but hey, it's one way to wear out those useless Michelins a FLU comes with.
Oh, there are quite a few differences between a SEE and an HMMH.
Anyway, when/if I find my bag of decals, I'll check if there's a HMMH specific one for the doghouse.
EDIT: Found the ad for the decal set, but it's only the loader decal, nothing for the forklift.
They look and are identical, Paul. Only the decals differ.
The only not-so-obvious difference between the SEE and the HMMH is the push button switch on the far (curl) lever on the HMMH, which when pushed in activates the small cylinder on the right side that rotates the forklift.
I might have a...
I don't see how removing the implements makes it a truck.
Trucks you put cargo on, so unless you also install a bed of some sort it should still be a tractor - which you pull things with.
If you do end up removing the loader and backhoe, please let me know how much fun it was to reinstall them.
Yeah, I've always figured that it'd be the easiest to treat the SEE as the tractor it is.
Bought two inexpensive LED strobe lights (less than $20 each) to put over the cab, mounted on small but strong magnets.
Also got a triangle mount for the back, and use the cheap LED worklights (replaced the...
Hey, that's one reason I moved away from the ocean.
But being 10 miles from the nearest village of 1,300, people around here just might figure out it was me no matter what.
Kind of like when a friend of mine was going a bit fast in the village and almost hit a deer. The cop parked on the...
Since yours is camouflaged, Brian, the cops won't see it so no need to register it.
I plan on outrunning them if I ever see blinking lights in the mirror. Taking a left or a right off the pavement that is.
With 2,800 made, how are they going to know it was me?
Driving a SEE down the road is not bad. I expected some bucking, as with a wheel loader, but none to be felt. That's with 40 psi and bad shocks, by the way.
Can't speak for "high" speed driving as I'm a low rpm person and feel that 35 mph is plenty for the engine.
Probably as a result of better...
Hmm. Never even thought about insurance since I use them on the property and rarely get out on the roads. Figured they'd fall under the homeowners policy. Might have to look into this.
Still, a SEE doesn't feel very confidence inspiring over 25 mph, and being a low rpm person, 30 mph is plenty...
