Hi fluggie , Interesting handle by the way :-) . You really don't need to worry about me hauling . If I find out from the owner that it's to wide to transport then I don't buy it or he narrows it or help's narrow it . I can still take the semi from work , it's got 102" wide deck . My job involves hauling demo'd bridges and building's and heavy equipment and small equipment and just about anything that will fit on a vehicle or trailer . Loading thing's safely is one of the only thing's I'm good at . I've been doing it for over 17 years without a lost load or an accident or even a ticket for having the load in the wrong place on the trailer and breaking the bridge law's . For those of you that don't drive semi's , a bridge law doesn't deal with bridges directly but the weight transfer from one set of axles to the other caused by load placement . Some of the equipment I haul is in the 45,000lb range . That's not real heavy . One of the cranes I drive is 91,000lbs and 11 feet wide . It's a truck crane so I drive it to were it has to go . I'm not tring to be smarta$$ and I know you don't know me so read this as a letter of re-assurance . I won't do it if I don't feel it's safe . I agree with you about the unsafe small vehicle's pulling trailer's that are overloaded or loaded with all the weight on the tow vehicles rear end . Rest easy ...Randy

I came from the suburbs and own a small horse farm in rural Loudoun County, Virginia. You can call me a "weekend farmer." The local farmers do. Does it bother me? No. I am just happy to have their friendship. At least the word "farmer" is in my title. But what is the attraction? How can I explain the sensation and exhilaration I feel when I turn the key and hear the engine come to life (most
