    This one came in at about 82500-83000

    And I will tell you exactly what happened while I was at the dealership I loaded it myself of course and I was smart enough to raise the bed and probably dumped out you know a couple hundred gallons of water.


    And quiet frankly after that fell out of it my brain just apparently stopped

    Because I didn't get out of the machine to actually look in the bed.

    Cuz if I had I would have seen the remnants that was in the bed and have them fire hose it out.

    Cuz I ended up weighing it, then I stop somewhere else to try to get it axle out.

    Finally I took a second look at that bed and realize there was at least a ton worth of sediment and dirt and various stuff possibly more and I was not going to get it out with a shovel and by raising the bed which is when I went in to figure out how to get it to axle out anyway i

    I have forgotten the couple hundred gallons of water before. I remembered it at the first brake application.

    First load out of the house, arrive hydraulics don't work spend a few hours on site mechanic fixes it, we are in business

    placed the main deck outriggers perfect spot for a 150,,,,,, only this was a 16m so oops. at least one of the tires was on there good. For a few reasons I didn't want to take it back down for that.

    Always a nice eye squinty moment going over the tires.

    And the camber on this thing was wore out we played with adjusting it there for a minute and realize no the whole thing is just sloppy and worn out. Cuz I mean we try to adjusting the camber with the hydraulics but especially that left tire that left steer tire on that grader it just kept kind of wobbling, which made it real fun with about only six inches or so of rubber on the steel. Either side. So with as much slop we were getting out of the front end and we got it up on there straight very painstakingly yeah she ain't coming off till she gets delivered.


    And then almost done for the day pulling to park up,,,, trailer bag decided it had done enough. We have one of those on the way.

    A little building to a factory dairy in Western Ohio. I hate these places, I may be in jail tomorrow for letting all the cows out to go to pasture.

    That will be big enough to be a pain in the bottom to route.
