Bought my big Oliver at a sale this summer and finally found someone there to haul it the 55 miles back home. Had talked to more than a dozen ppl at the sale getting prices from 70 to 200 bucks (timesframes of 2 hours to 2 weeks). The 70 guy backed out, so I took the first $200 guy. Then he backed out, so I found another $200 guy. He had a kid show up in an f350 with a gooseneck and off we went. Got the tractor unloaded, whipped out the bills, and confirmed the $200 bill. Well, the kid said it was $110 as the 2 I had discussed with the middleman was $2 a mile not $200. Paid the $110 bill and gave the kid one of my extra twenties so he didn"t feel to bad, plus he drove slow like I asked him to.
