Hello Mike,
Maybe some of us are older, greyer, balder, etc. and need to haul people
and lots of stuff at the same time. You may find that your taste changes
as you get older. I have found it quite pleasant to carry my whole
family and extra stuff like a car seat, tricycle, beach gear etc. all at
once in a type 44. Why wouldn't I want to do it rapidly with the aid of
the 3B? I would love to drop a 3B into my 4kq, but it would serve a
different purpose. Closer to what you are talking about. Of course maybe
I'm not too old. Reference my Tool addiction.
See you,
Wolff
