It just came with this statement:

"Kenton, I think its too wet to be in the fields right now" - Quote by Chubby prior to leaving the yard with the tractor and harrows one fine sunny Monday afternoon. 24 hours later, 4 tractors, 6 broken chains, 3 snapped tow straps, and finally 1 backhoe later, I would have to concur with that assessment.

How about this one?

I know the guy from humboldt with the red tractor. These crazy trains start to push pretty crazy. We have a tow between cart, a 57' air drill, and an anhydrous bottle behind Brutus (our 47000 pound 9390). You have to be pretty smooth going down hills at road speeds!

I know the guy that rolled that unit!!! that is my neighbors nephews tractor. The guy who rolled it was actually the hired man, I guess he didn't get fired either for destroying $500 000 worth of equipment. The tractor and equipment was insured thankfully.

I heard that the guy hit a soft spot with the tractor and everything tried to go with him. by the time he tried to ease it back the cart went into the ditch. The cart was three quarters full and the seed shifted. it pulled everything with him, but don't ask me how the tractor got thrown around like that.
