A few years ago I lived in a house in the middle of the fucking ghetto, and we had a largish drainage ditch that was being blocked by human bodies tree branches. It would have been impossible to drive something down into the drainage ditch, so they just pulled up with one of these on a trailer. It was awesome.

Wheels or track seem far more efficient fuel wise and speed wise…
