Here’s one idea very popular at my airport. There’s probably a dozen old riding mowers between the five group and T hangars.
I use an old riding mower and universal tow bar. Mower has a ball hitch on front and rear, so easy to pull her to the fuel pump or push her into the hangar. Find a running Craigslist mower for $200-300, drop the deck, put a ball or two on it, and get a tow bar (like a Brackett TR-34B or similar) that connects to the mower.
Also gives you a place to put drained fuel from the aircraft during preflight—into the tank of the mower! I keep a 12v battery charger\tender on the mower…so far so good!
