Purchased this vehicle for two reasons. ONE: to transport all our supplies for the tradeshows we do for our business and TWO ability to handle Great Lakes snow storms. It gets 5 stars in both catagories. I've read reviews that say its uncomfortable to ride in and sloppy on the road.. I find mine just the opposite. It's comfortable loaded with supplies and rides as I would expect a … vehicle of it's class to ride. It handles great both on slippery and dry roads and I feel very safe driving it in all conditions.
