    Daytona 500 thought

    I just wanted to see Tony Stewart punch a reporter or something. That's the main reason I watch.

    Well guys, thanks for all your help. I hate to say it, but it's all much adou about nothing. We found the same model tractor closer to home and for a lot less money. It's being delivered in a couple weeks. I can tell you that we hauled another tractor of ours with that setup on Saturday down...

    The truck hasn't been driven much since Saturday, had a gooseneck hitch installed and a brake job.

    Engine Question

    It's a 99 F350 4x4 auto, got it in September of 98. 130k miles, two sets of front ball joints, lots of brakes and rotors and such, one CPS, and one water pump. Been a fantastic truck.

    Thanks guys for the replies. This site is already more friendly than another diesel stop I've spent time on. I've thought of all those things and I'm in the process of getting them all done and checked out. The neighbor guy with the trailer has already hauled a 14,000 lb tractor from Kansas...

    Trip Preparation Need Advice

    Hey all, this is my first post over here on SDD. I need a little advice and encouragement. Later on this month or next my Dad and I will likely go to central Missouri and pick up a tractor. The tractor will weigh about 11,000 lbs more or less. It is high crop model and the center of gravity...
