My admittedly limited exposure to mules has led me to believe that they are not for me. They seem to be a lot like liver or lutefisk - they aren't for everyone. Give me a good horse and I'll go most anywhere a guy with mules will go with no worries. I'd worry more about finding one of either type that had the experience and personality for the two of us to work well together in whatever it was that I was going to use it for. Plenty of good ones of either type out there but you will have to look for a while to find one that fits you and your needs well or you'll regret your decision every day you have to feed it.
