Well Brett maybe I am all wet. My first post was that I noticed wear of the pavement, with no reference to trucks. It was most noticeable on a stretch of route 772, Newport Rd between Mascot and Leola. What I saw was a depression in the pavement, with roughness, running along the edge about three feet in from the edge of the pavement and about twenty inches wide. It was worn deepest in the middle, and as I said there were places where it had worn right through the top course of pavement. It has the appearance of a snowmobile trail crossing except that it runs along instead of across the road. You must have snowmobile trail crossings there in northern NY. I said nothing judgmental in my post or negative in my post. I stated nothing judgmental about the wear. I made no reference to wheels. I know that most buggies are now on composite wheels. I had enjoyable visits with some Amish while driving around and also while at the Threshermen's Reunion. I assure that I had my eyes wide open while driving and looking at these depressions worn into the pavement. So, since I must be wrong, since it appears that you have to be right, please tell me what is causing this pattern of wear along these roads.

Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
