Yes, get the push off feet. It makes unloading much easier. With everything going right, I can pull in the barn driveway and be back on the road in 5 minutes. Of course, you do get a few loads from Hell every year where everything goes wrong, but in general it's a really fast way to move hay. Yes, you can pick up hay with dew on them. When rain is starting, I'll pick up bales in the rain until the wet bales won't slide anymore, effectively ending the haying day. Now, that's not something you want to do a whole lot of, of course, but if it's get some hay in with wet tops and one side (direction the rain is from) or let it sit out and maybe get so wet you have to throw them away, then I'll take it when I can. It's two more loads in the barn, anyway. In any case, dew will not slow the wagon down. Are you sure your barn is not tall enough? With the very early model wagons the whole rack went up, but the later ones only had the rolling rack and the bottom of the wagon go up. You didn't have to have such a tall barn when they came out with that. It's worth it even if you have to build a new barn, though. It's a very fast way to bring in hay. JJL
