I've considered a gas caddy on multiple occasions, but legalities aside, they seem like more of a hassle than a convenience.
Who's lifting 15+ gallons of gas out of the back of the truck after you've taken it to the gas station and filled it? You gotta go get the loader tractor, not bash your tailgate with the bucket, maneuver the caddy into the bucket, and lower it to the ground. Hassle and inconvenience.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
