Hi RustyFarmall , No actually I don't . I know about 5 people in Iowa not counting the ones I've worked with . I don't seem to be a very social person . I'm searching and my BIL is searching for an appropriate trailer and we think we found one . It's not a deckover but it's as close as we can find , 82" wide . If all goes well we'll have it to take . If I find out the tractor is over 88" wide and less than 102" I'll take the semi from work , if it's over 102" wide and the owner won't narrow it up or have something there to help with getting it narrow then I'll take the negative feedback and not buy it and lose the 100 buck's I already sent for it . See the response I posted to fluggie in Ia . I agree with you and it will be done safe or it won't be done at all . By the way , putting plank under the wheel's is something I have done in the past BUT it HAS to be bridge plank , 4" to 5" thick and 16" wide , laid full width directly on the deck and nailed down with barn spikes . No more than 2/3 of the tire can be over the side of the trailer on the plank . With the trailer we found to bring this is not an option anymore since it's a all aluminum trailer . This is not an endorsment to do thing's unsafely . But done ( like all thing's ) with more than a little common sense it can be done safely . Take care ...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
