Gees lets calulate this, and then use a little logic.. 1. I need to travel 450 miles to pickup a tractor or piece of equipment...My truck( 1T Ford, 460ci) gets 12m/Gal, I don't care how I calculate milage comes out the same, running empty or loaded...down hill with tail wind or up hill into wind, with flat bed or 40 ft fifth-wheel. With gas at $3.25 pr. gal, truck is going to use 37.5 gal of fuel. So 37.5 X $3.25 = $121.88 one way trip. Gotta go anyway, going to have all that wear and tear on my truck and trailer running empty or loaded, and still gonna cost me $121.88 for fuel one way...So which is better, to go empty or loaded to help pay fer fuel.
Boy I would opt out to put "something" on my trailer for getting cost of fuel one way to off set the cost of fuel. just my 2 cents.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
