I put a plastic bubble on mule. Doesn't look like much, but to my surprise, it was nice and warm. Outside temp 19 inside temp 49. I was expecting windows to frost up, but they didn't.

Back yard is 18 acres of an old gravel pit and 2 lakes. It drops off a good 30 ft. We have a few miles of trails for walking, go-cart, or the mule.

A fun place for grandkids to play.

Doesn't take much sun to heat things up this time of year does it? It's been in the mid teens all day but no wind and unusually clear. The snow is melting wherever it's on something exposed to sunlight. The eves are dripping. Feels like spring out there.
 
my motor is water cooled, no heat off motor or radiator unless I add a heating coil, way too expensive.
 
My motor is under the dump bed. I don't drive it very fast. Mostly on trails, up and down hills. Radiator fan rarely comes on and when it does only for a few seconds.

I use it mostly for fun, kids and grandkids love it. One kid is 12, he thinks he's driving a real jeep. Priceless. Kids use it when we go fishing and shooting clay pigeons. Haven't figured how to cook the pigeons.
 
The rhino has the motor right between the seats. On a cold day you can have one leg sweating, one leg froze. Only thing between you and it is some air and a thin piece of plastic.

Oh, and did I mention it's a big POS, too?
