$1,000,000, plus $5,000,000 for delivery and set up (just a conservative guess).
But you could ask Bill to tow it to your house for ya, save you a few bucks.

I'd like everyone to join me in a big round of applause for Bill.... not only can he not take criticism and proof that he's wrong, he hands out negative reps for someone stating their opinion and interpreting HIS data....

I have taken 250,000 pounds of scrap in and towed for 35,000 miles in the last 14 months, plus all the towing and hauling before I started keeping track of It.
I can not take scrap home with me and when it is 4:30 and they close at 5:00, ( it is a 45 minute drive at the speed limit ) yes, I run as fast as the traffic allows.

Hahahahaha I believe you now! Quoting you saying that you live 45 minutes from the scrap yard, lets assume the speed limit is 90mph. 90mph for 45 minutes gets you 67.5 miles. If you say you towed for 35,000 miles and each trip is 67.5 miles, you made 518.518 (i'll round this to 518) trips. Now if you spread out 250,000 lbs. over 518 trips, each trip you hauled a whopping 482.62548 lbs. per trip.
All the towing was not scraping. I have made 41 scrap trips, at 58 miles a trip,
that is a 6097 pound average pay load and 2378 miles.
That is from my house to the scrap yard and back, I have to do a lot more driving to pick up loads.
That is about half my towing miles, the other half is some of every thing.
I have hauled cars, furniture, concrete and building supples etc.
plus my tractor all over the place.

How much more proof would you like?

That just sucks. If you are going to make such a broad statement, you should be able to deal with the criticism...
Remind me not to post my opinions anymore, someone might slam me with a negative rep...

All a negative rep does is take some points away from your reputation points.
No one else sees it. I have a few I wear them with pride.
However, I will say this: The civility of this thread took a hit when STROKIN'IT7.3 started posting.

Well like I said, I'm done with this thread. I would have been long gone, but since I received neg. reps 2 days after posting a statement, I got a lil upset to put it lightly. I'm simply interpreting data that was presented and am getting a bad rep. from it. I did not mean to make such a commotion as I did, but feel that I was acting within not only forum guidelines but also in my own morals. I tell it like it is and it comes across harsh. So, as long as I don't get any more flack from this, I will remain unheard of in this thread.
