Doesn't have to work hard on hills like the Omega did, and I've now got a much larger van.

If the grass is too wet and muddie, I'll just use the mover to get it off ;)

So let me understand you ... its wet and muddy .. you use the mover to shift the 'van not the car... but the nosewheel is removed ... you must have it very finely balanced .........  ;D ;D ;D ;D
