I thought about that too. One time I got it in without too much drag. The next time I was leaving and the tires were 1 ft off the ground....NOT GOOD. It's going to take some practice to figure out how to get it in there. I'll start adding the wheels and spend a little time working on the approach angles. My neighbors are going to realize I'm nuts....

I still like the idea to build a little tug on a square tube chassis with a hydraulic hitch. I can also put a little flat bed on it with a hoist for moving equipment to the back. Sounds like a fun little project where I can start to improve my welding before tackling a cage in my car or something of the like. It's probably cheaper to pick up a cheap used compact tractor but that doesn't sounds as fun
