Y'know, one of the things filtering it's way to the top of my "list" is 
the acquisition of a pickup-bed mounted "crane"/hoist.

I find my cherry picker rolls quite poorly in the dirt (and usually 
requires a Scout II to help motivate it under such conditions).

I find my pickup gets around alright on rough terrain.

Solution: install a hoist in the pickup. :D

Might have to buy a flatbed IH 3/4T 4x4 just to mount the hoist to. 
Sounds like a good enough excuse to buy another rig to me...
