I do! Got out Sunday, The ice was only 4″ but I wanted to run this thing to see how it does. It started very easily, they use a synthetic oil. It was much queiter than a 2 cycle, and very smooth, It pulled itself right down thru the ice. It may not be as fast as the 224 but I’m sure it’s fast enough for 95% of the fisherman. The only drawback the the auger is you have to set it down the same way or the oil may run out. I was worried about it sliding around in my truck and leaking, so I welded up a simple rack, so it can’t flop around. It worked very well!! Overall I’m very happy with the purchase. Ron
