    Sharp looking wagon. With a rear axle lift I bet you could door swat 2 lanes of traffic on a hard corner. Lots a tail swing.

    With tractor full of fuel the combo came in at 31960# She weights in at 12180# I have not loaded my straps etc so it will weight a little more. I'll put the western on the scale tomorrow. See what the difference is. If I remember right I weighed more as a combo with the western. But honestly I don't remember.
    Time for a victory beer.

    Thank you @stayinback much appreciated. Nothing in my business is financed. I can't justify paying someone to use their money. No one can come take MY equipment, and I can take time off and not worry about making a payment. I truck out of love, freedom and of course money. I don't want that messed up by stress. My mom beat into me hard work. Nothing is given to you so if you want it WORK FOR IT. A motto I stand by. Sadly this is lost on most people in this day and age.
