Have you looked at ATVs and pseudo-Jeeps like the Mahindra Roxor or the Kioti?
- cmrdporcupine 5y agoWell, those are fine for on-property, but not going places, as at least around here they're not road/hwy legal. I have a compact tractor, I want something for moving stuff around that is either off-property (compost, manure, lumber, straw bales, etc.) or not suited for tractor/trailer. I do have an SUV (Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, which is cool cuz it has a 12 amp outlet in the back for powering tools etc) but it can't fit plywood in the back and I wouldn't put dirty stuff in it, cuz it's my wife's :-)
- sbierwagen 5y agoATVs seem to be street legal in Ontario if they have a license plate: http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/driver/drive-ATV.shtml http://www.mto.gov.on.ca/english/driver/drive-ATV.shtml
- fnord77 5y ago> or not suited for tractor/trailer. what about a small utility trailer? Cheap as dirt at harbor freight, etc.
- cmrdporcupine 5y agoI have a nice aluminum trailer but I hate using it. Driving with a trailer sucks, and pulling one into the lumber yard is a pain is the worst. Spoiled, am I. This is what happens when you combine a FAANG salary with rural hobbies ;-)
