DND, My son calls my tractor a "Force Multiplier". I am not the mule I was 20 yrs ago and my tractor makes life easier and more productive than not having it. Good on ya for using it to make things using less of your energy that can be used for other things.
I know what you mean, 20 years ago I didn't need even a hand truck, but now that I'm older it truly has been my life support system, and it's FEL has saved my aging back,
for instance 2 weeks ago I needed to start the rebuild of our Cook grill, I may have carried it up 15 steps to our deck 6 years ago but I wasn't about to try brining it back down them, So! a section of the railing came down, I pulled my ol-1700 up to the deck lift the FEL bucket up to the level of the deck, straped the 250 lb Grill on and drove it down to my shop (200 ft ) away, :drink: Heck come to think of it, I probably spend half as much time moving things with my tractor than I do actual tractor work I guess in a way it has become my set of "hand trucks"
