Buddy vs Rocky
If you compare the Rocky and the Buddy Power Barrows, you will notice that the Rocky has the 10" drive wheels on the front where the Buddy has them on the rear. The reason for this is so that some of the weight is moved from the front of the machine to the back making it lighter on the front and heavier on the back so that more weight can be added to the Buddy's skip.
There is a difference when steering this machine to the smaller Rocky Power Barrow. When its empty you push down on the handlebars slightly to steer as you have more weight on the rear and then when it's loaded you obviously have more weight at the front so you then slightly lift the handlebars. It is as easy to steer loaded as it is empty.
