Mr. Hugh, I know what you mean about the duals. The boys here raising cotton with 8 and 12 row equipment run duals all thru the growing season. The impliments are just too heavy for singles. Here in the hills, the farms are small and a farmer may work several farms scattered over two counties. This means lots of road time for the tractors.

I know I'm over-killing things a bit running the 1066, but I also do a little dirt work on the side. The 10 seems to be a perfect match for my 5 yard dirt pan on small grading jobs. Plus, the 1066 is cheap to purchase here. Maybe when I get used to the fact that I'm a lot wider than I used to be, I won't mind it as bad.
