Bounty Wagon

[Orv Williams]

I have had the bounty wagon for over a week now and have been totally unsuccessful at finding it useful in any way beyond it causing repeated failures of attempted bounty missions. It is hard to drive, nearly impossible to navigate with in the mountains or the swamps. It only carries ONE dead bounty target at a time, something I learned that really should have been mentioned in the description of the wagon at the time of purchase.
I seem to either get the wagon stuck or timeout because it is so slow to drive.
(This is in Red Dead Online playing with another player in a posse.)
Perhaps I am missing something really basic?

If like the hunting wagon. It's a,pita. But does have some limited use. No clue what that is. Not a bounty hunter.

That's not true, you can fill it with whole 6 targets no problem, regardless if they're dead or alive. Maybe it was some bad positioning or whatever, so you could not drop another one in.

Generally you want to call wagon in when you are already tying up your targets, don't use it for travelling around.

And psa, gold payout only scales with time you take, you can always just let some targets flee and lose just a little cash/xp. Horse should be enough if you only care about gold.

Hmm, OK. I will try again to place dead bounties in the wagon. I tried and was unable to place a second. I considered positioning and made several adjustments with no luck.
I get calling the wagon once the targets are in custody... the issue is trying to use it to deliver the targets back for payment. Driving it can be a nightmare compared to a horse.
Even my hunting wagon, which is supposed to have lesser quality handling, seems far easier to maneuver than the bounty wagon. The lack of a lantern on the bounty wagon also compounds issues at night.
Thank you much for the info, I will make more attempts at utilizing the $875 turd on future bounties. lol.
I wish I could pile bounty corpses on the hunting wagon... problem solved. =)
