A couple dozen fence posts to remove.
After the first two, I decided I needed a change in technique. :-)

That's a winner! I've just used a 2x and a 45degre angle (a lever to
convert horizontal to vertical motion) and pulled them with a rope
tied to my truck but that's even easier than bringing the truck
around.

The problem is that both techniques need an in-tact post. Often
they're pretty well rotten (the reason they're being replaced).
