It is, and I rather doubt if the priest's wagon would be available for loan to a trader.

That "at least two-wheeled" bit puzzles me. Who would try to have a cart with less than two wheels? Why? And if they managed to succeed in having a working cart with less than two wheels, what's wrong with that?
