There are a number of times that I struggle to get heavy items(compressors, bricks, rotatiller, yardsale finds, etc) into my F150 truck bed. I thought about this before and it is striking me again.......this time between the ears and my lower back. So when I looked into to this a little I came across a number of cranes for pickups that fit into a plate bolted in the truck bed and hit around $100. I've also seen the Spitzlift cranes which seem to be better made and have a multitude of adaptive holders one of which cleanly fits the receiver hitch but this is 7x to 10x more than the other less expensive brands. I'm figuring I'm late to this show and others have purchased some of these solutions totally or have adapted them for specific use. If you have a crane for your pickup truck what solution did you come up with and what are the pros and cons?.......Gary
