I bought a backhoe about 900 miles away from my house. Local dealers had no inventory, and this unit came with a complete use and service...
Got it. Thanks.
I also hear that no one likes to truck to Massachusetts, and not much comes out of Mass for a backhaul. Well, it IS the people's republic of...

If people knew, they'd blow a gasket. Those tolls get rolled into the cost of everything we buy. Governments like this because the costs are...
What? The states screw truck drivers that badly on tolls? Reading this board gives me so much more respect and understanding of how tough it is...
