Default Wheelbarrow loads

Stumbled on this (and other similar devices) while
doing my research:

http://www.nu-starmhl.com/product/muv-electric-wheelbarrow

400kg = ~900lbs

http://www.electricwheelbarrow.com/

550lbs

A wimpy 200 pounds -- despite its APPARENT large size!
(actually, no larger than most wheelbarrows -- just LOOKS so!)

Might be nice toys to have -- except for the space required
to STORE IT! (friends with back hoes and front loaders
have lots of real estate -- and extra garages -- in which to
hide THEIR toys! Given my druthers, I think I'd rather a basement
than an extra grudge!)

I also note that the bobcat ROC's start at around 700. So, that's
probably a significant figure...
