    Return/rebrand, of the original MSUV

    I was at Sears last night and had to do a double take. Added a light, and a couple of little wheels, but item # 22338

    The added light will not make up for the short comings of those little wheels. It may look similar to the old style MSUV but it won't maneuver like one on rough ground. Even if it was identical to the RIDGID, why would anyone pay that much?

      Maybe the smaller wheels are more carpet friendly...

      I left my Ridgid MSUV setup in the same place (unused) while rearranging moving the shop from the garage to the basement for about a week, and then it sat for a second week when I needed to take an unplanned business trip. When I returned the wheels had permanently discolored the carpet.

      My fault for not thinking about it I suppose. I never actually used it to cut things on the carpet and I'm sure that's not a use case the manufacturer considered, and it's probably never an issue for other people, but it sure made me mad at myself when I saw the marks...
