Wenn Deine Firma Dir verbietet Linux auf dem Rechner zu installieren, gibt es nur eine Lösung. 😈
War das nicht Lindner, der über den Hund ist?
Edith sagt: Ja, das war der Lindner.
Mir ist heute beim Einkaufen eine Rentnerin in der Schlange andauernd mit ihrem Einkaufswagen in die Hacken gefahren. Außerdem hat geschimpft, dass es so lange dauert. Da habe ich mich umgedreht und sie gefragt: “Soll ich Sie vielleicht vor lassen? Man sieht’s ihnen ja schon an, dass Sie nicht mehr viel Zeit haben.”
So what? Your local farmer drives 200 miles (and back) to deliver 10 bales of hay to the next town instead of commissioning a truckage company that has the right equipment to transport three times the load at half the cost as they can use the truck to transport something else on the way back? Don’t your farmers have something more useful to do with their time?
No, it’s obviously not.
A van without enclosure looks like that:
A pickup truck with enclosure looks like this:
One of these allows you to see a three year old standing 60cm in front of your car, the other one doesn’t even allow you to see the same kid when it’s 3 meters away.
Doesn’t seem too easy to access anything but the first row of boxes. Where would you even store these orange boxes that are currently on the hand truck? On top of the rack? Seems like fun lifting them 5 feet if they contain any heavy tools. With a Van you have access from the sides built in, and because of the lower floor you could even add a ramp to push your hand truck into the car without having to lift anything at all.
Btw. it’s possible to fit two pallets into a small van. Heck, you can even fit a pallet into a cargo bike.
Ah yes, two trailers of hay bales is the exact same thing as one trailer!
If you don’t need two trailers, maybe just don’t attach the second trailer?
In Europe, the maximum weight you’re allowed to tow with a passengers car driver’s license is 3500kg. And even that requires an extended licence for driving with large trailers. Everything bigger than that requires a full truck drivers license anyway (Including all the shenanigans that come with commercial freight traffic like a driving logbook, minimum resting times).
So people will either use a real truck if they need one or they’ll use a passenger car if they don’t.
Not sure which type of bobcat that is, but you can probably pull that with a slightly bigger station wagon, but surely with a Van.
Sorry I didn’t intend to troll. I’ve never seen one of those things in your picture. I don’t even think they exist in Europe. If you were to transport more than two or three horses here, you’d probably use something like this (but I’m not much of a horse guy so I’m not sure):
For the hay bales, you’d just use your tractor (they can drive as fast as 80km/h nowadays) unless you’re really going for a loooong distance. In that case you’d use some kind of small truck and trailer:
But that’s rarely necessary anyway. Why would I want to deliver hay across the country when the local hay is just the same.
I thought you were talking about massive trailers and not horse trailers. Noone needs a clown car to tow a horse trailer or something comparably sized. Your average station wagon is totally capable of that.
It’s made for carrying tiny penisses. Cars that are actually made to tow massive weights look like this
or this
The 150 ist just as stupid a car as the 250. If your buddy really needed a car to carry tools and lumber around, he’d drive something like this:
But that doesn’t help curing fragile masculinity. One of these cars is big enough for a family of nine and their luggage. The other one isn’t even big enough for one man and his ego:
