Re: (ET) E-15 Motor on EBay

["Christopher Zach" <czach computer org>]

Note: I fit my E20 and mower deck (front) in a standard pick up truck with
no problem. Rent one from Enterprise; mine was $80, all day, unlimited
mileage.

As for getting it up, rent a set of ramps. Then buy a small engine hoist 
and
some straps and winch it up the ramps.

When you pull the batteries (just forget the batteries) it's not that 
heavy.
And if you bring a small electric tire pump, you can probably fill some of
the tires (dry rot <> flat)

Get it. I'd pick it up myself except that my wife would kill me if I got
another tractor. Besides, it should go to someone who would love it.
