When I was a younger man and didn't have back and knee issues from accidents, I picked up my older brother's Datsun (now Nissan) B210. It was rear wheel drive back then. He had been mouthing off and got me upset. He outran me and jumped in his car. I grabbed the rear bumper and picked it up a couple inches off the ground and waited for him to rev it up really high. I dropped it and he went flying over a curb. He was surprised. I once picked up a 5 HP Toro snowblower by myself and put it in my truck. Other than that, I can honestly say I try not to pick up hernia inducing loads.

I haven't tryed to pick up the whole thing. It is just a Honda Rincon. I believe I could lift all four wheels off the ground at the same time. Next time I have them off, I'll try that.

I can pick up one end at a time on my Hawk and move it...thats how I've gotten un-stuck a few times. Currently dont have a winch, come along, or any type of recovery device....hmmmm maybe I need to quit being so cheap!! Might get in a real pinch some day!

I've never been stuck. This Honda will go anywhere that I want it to. If I did get stuck, I'd just have to get something to pull it with.

I have to agree with the masses.. Why WOULD you lift it That is what the winch is for.. Dad always told me to "work smart, not hard".

I can't pick up my popo, but I can pick up my brother in-laws warrior and throw it on the trailer. Well it only weighs about 400lb.
