Lanse Nothing scientific, just observations gained from 40+ years in the freight business. 1- I have seen used units ~10 years old listed on C L for ~$5000. 2- No. Solid tire, aka "cushion tires" normally are ~12" diameter. No side sway on paved floors, but useless as a hog on ice if used on gravel surface. Pneumatic tires are normally ~24" diameter, just won't fit in the space allowed. Except for dual wheel "yard trucks", total width will be under 40", to fit through a pallet space. For use on paved surfaces, "3 wheeler" usually turns shorter, but all the weight on one wheel will make it sink quickly on soft ground. For use off paved surface, a wide stance "4 wheeler" is much better. Side shift option is very handy. With a little practice, can position load within 1/4" or closer to where you want it. Stay away from diesel power unless you expect to run it steady for a couple hours at a time. Short use just won't let it get thouroughly warmed up, & stinks like the devil if run inside a closed shop. Propane probably best bet. Most electrics come only with solid tires, not easy to convert to air tires for outside use. HTH Willie

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
