I've used my forks once in 3 years... Grapple and bucket are about equal.
But then I work mostly in the woods or plowing snow.

FEL bucket hands down. There aren’t many uses for a carry all that can’t be accomplished with the loader. Forks would be the next most used.

For me it's pallet forks. If I need to use them as a carry all, I have a 40x48 pallet that I put on the forks.

Hard to determine if you mean a carry all for a SSQA FEL or 3 point hitch?

If you mean 3PH, I’m not sure you would pick an “either/or” versus bucket or forks. Kind of different uses IMO.

I use a 3PH carry all a lot, as I don’t always have the FEL on and my bucket is pin-on. It’s also often my rear ballast for FEL work.

20% forks, 20% bucket, 55% grapple, 5% take the loader off. For a carryall I use a Mule or a pickup.

Bucket, but I also use pallet forks and carry stuff on pallets.
