Thanks for the ideas. I could do all of those but I have neither the time, money or, most importantly, interest. I'm on a half acre block and without a tow ball or trailer I have to work with other people to get things done. Not impossible but I have higher priorities than my yard to be honest. I'm not much of an outdoors person so I'd like to minimise the effort and cost involved. Owning a working ute would be bloody handy though! I might have to work on getting my wife's dad's ute up and running so I can use that.
