    Lots of cow haulers in my area and some are smart and some are stupid .
    The smart ones know that the difference between 70 and 80 mph isn't worth the risk .
    I know 3 of the stupid ones and 2 got so many tickets they became uninsurable and now dont drive a cmv anymore ...# 3 ran a now defunct fleet due to carrier enforcement shutting them down and runs a single truck pulling a flatbed paying insane insurance rates .
    Most in the area i live are kids that come and go and in about 3 years they burn out and the fancy large car and Wilson pot is up for sale .

    I did that at about 12. Tho mine was red and white and had
    tapered hand holds each side of his head to steer him with.
    Actually brother and me had a pair, MW and BW. Old ox yoke
    from an uncle and their tails tied together with a bale twine did
    some carting around. LOL old times...

    I got him and a heifer calf for my 10th Birthday instead of getting toys. I had the option of either. Between the two of them and their calves over the next 6 or so years I made enough to pay for a fairly new Jeep CJ 5 at 16. It sucked not get any toys, but I sure did like that Jeep. I never paid for any feed or breeding or any other costs since my Grandad took good care of me.

    Lol no she was a bottle baby so she’s tame as can be. She’s pregnant with her second calf now. My little 2 year old daughter loves her to death. I’d be in the doghouse for years if I turned her into steaks.
