Review
The TORO Workman MDE is one of the best and most efficient utility vehicles available on the market right now. The Workman is powered by rechargeable batteries which saves the owner money because you don't have to keep buying gas to refuel this vehicle. The Workman is very heavy-duty and has a maximum work load of 1200lbs. Which allows the user to put up to 800lbs in the bed, which has a large area where you can put supplies, fertilizer, dirt, etc. This utility vehicle is made so that you can customize it with a number of attachment to best suit your needs. One of the things that i really like is the hydraulic bed lift which allows the operator to raise and lower the bed without ever leaving the cab. This is also nice is you have a very heavy load in the bed so that you don't have to manually lift it. Another attachment that i like is the enclosed cab and gas heater, which is nice when the weather is rainy or cold, the heated enclosed cab will keep you dry and warm. The suspension system on the Workman is very nice because it makes the ride very smooth and this can be very important if you are hauling dirt or mulch in the bed so that you don't spill any of it while driving around. Another great feature is the tow hitch which can allow the user to attach a sprayer, fertilizer spreader, blower, or trailer. This makes the Workman able to preform a number of tasks without having to buy a whole separate vehicle for spraying or fertilizing which can save money, all you would have to buy is a sprayer or fertilizer that has a tow hitch on it. I have used a number of utility vehicles while working at a golf course and the workman is much nicer and much more efficient than any vehicle i have ever used. I would recommend the TORO Workman MDE to anyone who is looking to buy a utility vehicle for use at a golf course.
