Mostly out of boredom, I’m going to do 1x a week at a buddies huge landscape supply place. $25/hr to run a forklift, delivery box truck, dump truck loads and run a yard loader. This isn’t something I’d do when I could just traditionally pick up a trip, but I’m bored and there are none.

I think the price-point for those things is kind of in a sweet-spot ($10K+). Affordable for a small business or serious side-gigger, but too expensive to be common with hobbyists, which would dilute the potential market.

If it takes off, you can graduate to serious equipment ($100K-400k+) and turn it into a real business.
