Thanks for the info Milkman. I placed an order.
In the FAQs they mention 70 lbs force on the handle. That can be done with one arm. If you multiply that by the mechanical advantage of a 24" handle on a 1/2" radius shaft you get 3360 lbs force. I can't wait to test this out. I have much dirt to move over the next year and one bucket at a time would turn the yard into a giant mud hole.

It will suprise you.

I bought one when they first came out, a dozen years ago or so.
I used it w/ my Toyota 4x4 PU, hauling dirt, gravel, firewood, and
rocks. I would do a ton at a time with my little truck. Worked fine
and it is cheaper now. HF sells it.

The force on the tailgate is significant, as posted, but it is no
problem. You DO want a slippery bed surface, like the older plastic
bedliners. The LoadHandler will work better in a trailer since there are
no wheel wells to get in the way.
