I've never seen a badlands in use, just vids. Read post of owners that said offroad hard ground they roll easy with the vehicle jacked up.

I'm still oldschool hi-lift jack offroad & when working on vehicles still use my 30+yo pittsburgh low profile, even lifted my old 35" wheeled k10, c20 back then & my c2500 & c30 trucks now.

My woman always thought I was going to flip her matrix over with the pittsburgh hahahahaha
 
I'm looking to use it in my crushed rock driveway, I don't have any paved surface to work on and my regular floor jack doesn't really like it too much.

There's my driveway, it's hard red clay like concrete, until it rains hahahaha. I keep it fairly smooth with a boxblade.

When my trucks need maintenence I work on them where they're parked, unless it's more indepth work where I'm going to be laying under it longer than 30 minutes or so,

where the canopy & shed sit is a 20'x20' concrete pad, I just pull the vehicle where the canopy sits so I can lay on concrete instead of red dirt, grass or big red ants.

Ticks are everywhere, I spray the yard around the house and still get a few every nowandthen.

But yes,
takes a bit more umf' to roll the lowboy On grass or soft soil than it does on hard clay & concrete.

If I done more mechanic work like I did a long awhile ago & the badlands was priced 50% what it is, I would consider buying one, but priced where it is, it's near $200 higher than I would justify paying for it.

course an air driven hydraulic jack ought to be in my shed too, but can't justify one's price either since my present jacks only get used maybe several times a month.
