in mud, gravel, loose dirt and ice. Wheels stay
on the ground, more torque reaches the wheels,
rear wheels grip better in turns and higher ground
clearance skips over rocks and obstructions.

Bush Hog TOUGH features mean Bush Hog Utility
Vehicles last. You’ll enjoy the superior ride and bet
ter traction of Bush Hog Utility Vehicles for years.
