Got my old tractor hauled home from the repair shop on Saturday morning.

Got me to thinking about how much nicer the goosenecks of today are than the old way of backin' those tractors onto a farm truck. Had to either back the truck into a ditch or find a loading dock. 'Course, the tractors were a heck of a lot smaller back then too.

I'm guessing a 1,000 foot overall elevation climb against a stout 30 knot headwind; the haul was totally painless and we just "came on home". Not to mention that the darned tractor wasn't riding 10" from the back of my neck either. :>)

Nice looking machine.

You didn't mention that todays trucks also have about 200 more horsepower too. That will help make the up hill sections go quick!
