This could get interesting for me. I just bought a JD 1380 pivot tongue mower conditioner in Missouri, about 250 miles from home. Had them pack the wheel bearings, will go down and get it the first Saturday I have off and weather is good. Will be pulling down 2 lane state highways, will have put DOT reflective tape on all corners before I pull. I USED to work for a farm equipment dealer years ago and have pulled similar loads much further at around 40 MPH no problem. I will also have magnetic taillights on it. Since I will be running about 30 to 35 MPH, do I need to remove the SMV before I start down the highway? I would think NOT, as will spend more time at under 30 than over. Figure on leaving the dealership by a little after 8 AM, will be there when they open, hope to get within about 70 miles of home before dark, where I will dolly it down and come back down Sunday to finish the last few miles. OLD, I think you are in MO if my memory is right, any opinions from in state? DOUG

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
