Bless the dummies who think it’s a better idea to accrue expensive repairs for their seemingly invincible toy, rather than just pay a random craigslist person $50 to just chainsaw the stump flush to the ground.
When I was a kid, I had an uncle who was one of those guys who always seemed to have a backhoe and other equipment around, and all I knew was that he did heavy construction, drove big dump trucks, and was the guy you called when you needed a large thing moved/pulled/cut down. Yeah, he had an old beater pickup truck with some ridiculous torque, but in his words “The truck is for pulling shit that is on wheels. The bulldozer is for pulling everything else.”
He’d have rather cut off his left arm than risk screwing up the truck trying to pull out a stump.
