After nearly 10 years of fighting my Max II, it is sold and I am now the happy owner of an Argo six-wheel. The comparison is night and day. My Max was only used for light duty, mostly to haul my ice fishing gear. It was used sparingly during the non-snow season around my property. I used it sparingly because it seems every few uses I had to fix, adjust or replace something. And I did not abuse it at all. It was fine for snow with the tracks, but the constant maintenance and the difficulty to maintain it was the final straw. I had no confidence to take it on an outing of more than a mile or two for fear of breakdown. I will not miss it.
