Heard a foreman in Dallas say a 4-foot bull float is a waste of money for small pours

He was telling a new guy that a 3-footer is just as good for driveways and patios, and that the bigger tool is only for slabs over 500 square feet. I've always used a 4-footer on everything because it covers more ground faster, even on a 20x20 pad. What's your take on the right tool size for different jobs?

Right, it's like @palmer.richard said, a total overkill tool for a simple job.

Honestly, that "right tool size" debate reminds me of people buying huge trucks just to get groceries.

Bigger float means less work, @bell.laura.
