You only have to load the FEL and then you can dump it out and go get another load. With a pickup you need to load and unload and then stack.
My tractor holds more than 1/4 cord, between the FEL bucket and my little poly tub wagon:

The range of compact tractors in terms of overall weight and FEL max weight rating is very wide.
if your asking me , yes I do. I have a bush hog rdf 720 or whatever the lingo on the side discharge finish mower is...its a 72" cut. its really my uncles but he do sent use it and I maintain it and use it. I have a slip scoop/pond scoop...never used it. painted it up but havent ever used it?? I have a boom pole to lift objects. I have a 4.5 ft disk harrow for food plots and a 4ft box blade to smooth my roads etc. those pipes up front are my ball EST to keep the front down. that rusty metal one is solid 3" bar steel and weighs maybe 80lbs the blue pipe is 3" ID pipe filled with lead and capped and weighs about 100lbs. so I have about 180 lbs maybe a bit less out front to hold it down. I need it with the disk as I ball EST it down with over a 100lbs and it hangs way back. it will make u have to turn with the brakes still if I put too much weight on it. And since I put windshield washer fluid in the tires it will pull the disk like no bodies business!!Neat little tractor. Do you have other attachments for it?
Oh, I definitely agree. The whole sub-CUT class is only a good fit for folks that have more money than space, as you can't find many good deals used (too new), and their capabilities are so severely limited. However, there's still a very wide gap between a sub-CUT and an 11,000 lb / 43 hp machine! If I had 2.5 acres, I'd be looking at a used CUT in the 20 - 25 hp range with a loader and full cat.1 hitch. Deere 750, 850, 855, 955, 2500, etc. Any machine that size (that I've used) has no trouble getting over the side of a pickup bed.We're just pointing out capabilities and limitations of various tractors. A new sub-CUT may be disappointing while a used CUT would perform the required tasks at the same price.
