There's an auction about 2 hours from me. The have a bunch of Oliver stuff including a 770 with a loader I'd be interested in. Problem is, the tractor weighs too much for my trailer; I'm guessing closing in on 9000# with loaded tires and loader, and I have a 7000# trailer and a truck with 8000# towing. I had a MF202 on it and the axles were visibly bending (drove home reeeal slooowww..). I'm not buying bigger trailer, not worth it for the 1-2 times a year I use it. So I can't trailer it home. Local tractor toter is $3/loaded mile and do it when he gets to it. Won't pick up a tractor that I can't guarantee won't start without a pull, without another loading fee. It would cost me more than I'm willing to pay to get it home. Other option is driving it home, about 6 hours at road speed on a tractor that I have not checked over enough to confirm tires will take it or if there are other issues. Route crosses the highway and has to go thru a couple busy suburban areas. Simply not feasible for me to do.
Guess that's one way to limit the collection size. lol. Probably need to sell some anyways.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
