5 of 5 Awesome January 24, 2024
Reviewer: 907herb from Eagle River, AK United States  
I was having trouble getting my cub back in the hanger after it started snowing.  Bought the tug and now it is not a problem. I have the longer handle and regular tires.  Just wonderful.

5 of 5 Tugger that works September 7, 2021
Reviewer: Larry Rhoads from Raymore, MO United States  
The unit works as advertised.  The speed setting on the drill covers a full range of motion from a slow walk to a full run.  My Sopwith weighs about 1000 lbs and the unit moves it smoothly.  Everything arrived in good order and went together well.  The hardest part of the assembly was getting the driveshaft installed.  It took a couple of tries to get the alinement correct.  Works great.

5 of 5 Citabria tug August 5, 2020
Reviewer: Bill Mc from Novato, CA United States  
The unit works very well on my Citabria 7gcaa. Because of the T/W wt (85lbs) I recommend the longer handle. The De Walt drill motor has plenty of power & battery life.

5 of 5 Tail dragger August 29, 2019
Reviewer: Ken Lifland from McKinney, TX  
When I first got the tug it would not move my Cessna 120 and was hard to use. Brandon when out of his way to help me resolve the issue (I needed to add the weight option) to my tug....like magic it works
