Problem with the bumper dumper is you have to be outdoors in the weather
to use it. Not necessarily so for the bucket with a seat on it. The
bucket is really handy when it's pouring down rain outside, or so cold
that matters freeze before hitting the ground.

I made a plywood seat for my bucket when I drove the Alaska Highway.
Worked great.

I vote for the bucket.
