I feel like the common theme in here is
@Curmudgeon and @PA Ram, I hope you guys get some relief from your back issues.

If either of you do decide on surgery, do your homework and get a good surgeon. Back injuries really suck.

Praying for pain relief for you both.
Thanks,
It's night and day better between my surgery which had about a 4-6 month recovery. I worked on my feet and did lifting so I was held out of work longer. Between that and I lost around 40 lbs a year or so ago and have kept it off it has made a huge difference. Not always perfect, but even doing alot of manual snow removal this year helping my brother in laws business and still not really bothering me too much. Only once early in winter when we were out 12 hours doing that stuff all day and lifting snow blowers in and out of the truck bed. It was over the side rails of his new 3/4 ton Chevy that sits high.

After that I starting using one of his non plowing/salt trucks to carry the blowers. He has 4 or 5 3/4 ton trucks with plows and salt spreaders. The ones with spreaders can't put the tailgate down. I will be glad when winter is over, it's been a rough winter.

I LOVE THE TRUCK.
I HAVE OWNED IT FOR 20 MONTHS.
3,300 MILES.
Yeah, isn't that ridiculous!?
Those are some expensive miles!
Unfortunately, I am now a cancer patient and treatments and side effects make going anywhere challenging.
The truck has sat idle for as much as 3 weeks at a time.
Quite a few of those months, the truck left the driveway only 2 or 3 times to drive 6 miles.

According to our friend, she says there will likely be bumps along the way. But, 24 years later she is still doing good.
You have a whole community on this site pulling for you.
