My son has worked extra hard in school this year. I intended to surprise him on Saturday with a trip to a local plow day where he could experience plowing with our small tractor. I knew the recent rain might cancel our plans but I followed the posts here at YT and thought we had a good shot of doing some plowing Ssturday.
In the past I've rented uhaul car hauling trailers to transport the tractor as our tractor is well below the maximum weight limit. My insurance company knows I rent trailers and my policy covers these rentals. I've been a customer of uhaul for 10 years always taking care of the equipment and returning it in better condition than I received it. This time the answer was "all our trailers are rented". I walked outside and looked around the corner of the building and spotted 3 trailers. I went back inside and asked about them and they were available for rent.
The reason I was not allowed to rent one was because I was hauling a tractor. Every other time I hauled my tractor I had it secured with transport chains in addition to their securement. They knew up front I would be hauling a small trator as I had told them many times in the past. In the past I have hauled steel on flatbed trailers so I know securement. Now that my rental option is gone, I won't be hauling the tractor because I live in town and can't store a trailer at home. My wife is not about to give up city living so I'll be posting my tractor for sale soon. Rant over.

Some have been very good, some have been well, disappointing to say the least. But no matter how good or bad auctions may be, we always seem to stay until the item we've come for or are interested in is on the block. I've been to some auctions near and far. I think the furthest has been the Two Cylinder 7 in the Amana Colonies last year. Lots of stuff, lots of people. I've also atten
