Update on the tractor. It was never delivered yesterday or today. It turns out the driver got there to pickup and realized the tractor has a 540 pto and the bush hog is a 1000 pto. The tractor was supposed to be able to handle either one but came wrong from the factory. So, in any event they are overnighting a conversion kit to make it how its supposed to be. #### it man, i just want my tractor! haha

I kind of like this little guy. I’ll have to do some measuring and checking weights but this trailer seems like a good starter for me to haul my own stuff on. Be nice if I could have the tractor, bush hog, and maybe a skid steer on the front deck. They make some longer ones up to 48 ft but I am a little concerned about maneuverability.
I wouldn’t be able to haul my own trucks but that rarely is needed anyway. Probably best to focus on agriculture type need.

Landolls sure are nice, but cost way too much for occasional moves. We gave $119,000 for a new 440b last year.

These things are tradeoffs that may need to be considered. A shorter trailer will be quicker to back around corners but will react quicker to steering inputs.
17.5 inch tires are normally rated for speeds of under 65mph and you need to keep that in mind. They are also faster wearing (smaller diameter).
The deck height will be 36inches or so and therefore loads of 10'6" or more may need to be permitted.cke, OLDSKOOLERnWV, stwik and 3 others Thank this. -
