Years ago, When I was about 16-17, I had my own little business hauling scrap metal to the scrap yard in my area. I used to go over to a lawnmawer shop every week and pick up scrap from this guy who had one, which he had bought at auction from my town ice rink. He had mounted an engine hoist on the front of the thing and loaded my mason dump, and trailer with all of the heavy ride on tractors, and lawnmowers, and parts. I got a chance to drive it one day for a few minutes. Of course, we were trudging around in his muddy, bumpy, back yard..It was fun though..

BIASED!

Nope, but it has been a long-time dream for me. I remember putting my face up to the 'glass between the periods at the New England then Hartford Whalers games as a kid, just dying to get behind the wheel of that thing. I thought that guy had the best job in the world! Still do sometimes
