5 of 5 Aircraft Tug for Vashon Ranger June 19, 2026
Reviewer: Damien Graham from Watertown, NY United States  
The MiniMax Aircraft Tug works well with my Vashon Ranger. There is a dip in the asphalt outside my hangar and this aircraft tug makes it easy to move my Ranger into the hangar.

5 of 5 Tug for Vashon Ranger September 9, 2025
Reviewer: Dave & Maureen from Los Osos, CA United States  
We ordered the MiniMax tug with a fork customized for the Vashon Ranger., VR7. The MiniMax engineering staff had recently seen a Vashon Ranger at OSH and already had measurements to customize the fork for the VR7.  We added an extra battery, the longer bar to open and close fork and the easy mover.  We are very satisfied with how quickly our order was filled and shipped and how easy it was to assemble and use the tug. Very much worth the investment.
