Just like its predecessors this sled is the perfect work sled. It can pull near anything you hook up to it. The difference is that now if you don’t wanna use it just for work, it will absolutely satisfy your desires. It’s comfortable, it’s stable and it’s easy to handle. It’s heavy yes, but it still has plenty of power to get itself out of every tough situation. The price is pretty reasonable too. It’s absolutely fair for a 2008 model. Especially for one that causes no problems and performs on a level that high. Trust the thing without any hesitation. You’ll only win if you do.
