We drive our tractors pulling all kinds of things out here on the county and state roads. We hold up traffic and make city folks unhappy but there just isn't much one can do when haying season comes and you have two tractors and a truck and three pieces of equipment to move from field to field. As far 70 miles if it can't make it then call the guy and get your money back. My Case LA doesn't have 4th gear (I was told because it was made during the war and most likely had steel) at 3 to 4 miles per hour it took me all day to bring it home from a friends place about 20 miles away. But it was fun I just sat back and enjoyed the ride. I have had cars piled up behind me as far as I can see at times because there aren't any shoulders on our roads. Once a Sheriff got caught behind me and when I found a spot to pull over he just waved and smiled as he drove by. During this season you can run into 5 or 6 harvesters on the main highway going about 25 MPH holding traffic up for miles. But this is farm country and most people just expect that kind of stuff in the summer. Walt
