I have hauled a lot of stuff but the only cattle I ever hauled were in boxes or hanging on hooks attached to rails in the top of the trailer

Good luck with the Pete.

It's temporary until my girl gets back with her new leg.

The Pete is an automatic and while the ride is nice, I ain't crazy about somebody else doing the shifting.

Sure, you say that now but I thought I saw cut marks on those springs.

i ran a cabover freight shaker back in the mid 90's haulin' mostly woodchips for independent stave in missouri, had a 315 big cam IV cummins that would stay right with the 425 cats in the hills all day long.

Hobbie, be careful if the road gets greasy. If you don't set it to push button shift when your drive tires break loose the thing will shift gears. I think they are dangerous. Especially when you hit a slick spot you were not expecting.

Somebody mentioned Diamond Rios, here is the rig I used moving equipment when I was in construction.

Looks purty good, HT
