put her to work!

not as hard as i know some of yall do, but the funny thing is, she behaves better with a job. my shake at 40 mph has been very pronounced on some days now, and even this morning. loaded hay and *poof* she rides like a dream

you can stack 35-45 in a ford with no ties easy.


I was carrying 180+

I have an odd bed count due to it being the makeup bails for the 500 we were all hauling.

Right now i am making a video of our various IH equipment (including the powerstroke) in action. starting with what we are currently doing which is making corn silage. The IH 1206 pulls the 2-row gehl 800 chopper, and i use my truck to tow the wagons back home to unload them with the IH 1466, the Oliver 1800 (gas) runs the elevator. right now we only have two wagons operational, a 12-ton Badger, and a 14-ton tandem axle rex. It'll be better when the video is finished. LOL gf thinks i'm crazy, she's probably right but i think its fun. LOL
