I wanted a deck over for two reasons:
1 - the extra width
2 - the extra ground clearance (our property is quite wooded and full of under-brush)

It is definitely more heavy duty than I really need, but it leaves room for upward growth a little.

As for the mileage impact... it this point what does it matter.

I may pick up another off-road vehicle or two, possible a side-by-side, if so, this should be able to tow them as well.
