A truck is too wide for many situations where a smaller, lower vehicle can save much effort and gumption. When I put a trailer hitch and box on my first golf cart, we found it did the bulk of the running around the property. Tractors and trucks just took too long to get going and turned around. The current EZ-G0 does a lot of lawn and garden work, towing a small custom trailer, and of course provides a mobile tool box for work on machinery. It will move a trailer around so much more quickly than an SUV can that it often gets overloaded. (You don't have to spend a lot of time making sure the back bumper doesn't get bashed, eh? You can see the hitch ball from the seat.) A tractor takes a ridiculous amount of time to get going and stopped, especially the old Fergie with the gas line that needs to be shut off and the battery terminal which comes off each time it is stopped. That suggestion of making a Suzuki Somersault into a utility vehicle sounds like a good one. They are awesome little off-road vehicles.
