Not enough information. How far away is the elevator? How long are the average waits to unload?
I started with a 1965 Chevy with a 292 and 2 speed axle, 14 foot bed hauled at best 300 bu. Did fine except the elevator is 6 miles away and the wait was at least 2 hours. Combine is a 4400 with 13' head, took 2-3 hours to load so from at the elevator to at the elevator was 5+ hours. Starting in the morning I could get 1 load delivered and 1 loaded.
