She did good!

What a day this has been. Started out this morning hauling a little geo for a buddy that was easy sorta. We had no key for it so we poped it in nuetral and pushed and slid the rear around by hand and got it on the trailer. We then dropped that trailer to go get a bigger one to ge tthe Bronco and plow I bought loaded on. When we got there the guy still had a car on it and wanted me to pull it to a guy that bought the car. Got there and he didn't hav the key for this one lol. So we had to jimmy the window and unlock it to get it off the trailer. Finally 3 hours later we were on the road to get my plow. Had some people pull up beside us on I275 and let us that we had lost on of our ramps about 5 miles back! So back we went and got the ramp. After the we got there and got it all loaded up things got alot better. This old beast pulled that trailer,Bronco and plow like nothing. It only had some trouble on the long grades on I275 in Kentucky but still did them at about 45 mph with very little smoke. My buddy that was with me always talks up his gasser 2500 and his 12v 1 ton dodge but was really impressed with the 6.9's take off and cruise with no problem. He is talking about finding one for himself lol. By the way I discovered that this is a northman plow. I got pics of it and will post them later, not a bad deal for $345.

Well Northman looks like it was made in Council Bluffs Iowa.

Notice I said was, it looks like they are no longer made.

3100 series was a non commercial plow.
2300 and 2200 series look like they were commercial plows.
