In the fall I see tractors and wagons at the elevator scaling in at 113,000 pounds. The Dot will have a blue car sitting at the intersection waiting for the next truck but they can't do anything about the tractors and wagons. Our area is fairly flat so we see more of the huge wagons. Those wagons are connected to the tractor by one little hitch pin. Every fall a couple of wagons land in the ditch when the hitch pin breaks. There are always several cases of front wheels buckling under the wagon and it sits there blocking the main highway because they won't use the gravel road. We have five or ten times more trucks hauling than wagons and I never see trucks with collapsed wheels or lost trailers. One of the wagon farmers bragged to me that HE doesn't have to buy a license or pay heavy road use tax on his big wagons. The next fall two of his giant wagons were on their sides in the ditch when the hitch pin broke! The farm to market road was blocked during the busy harvest while they were vacing the grain out of the ditch and pulling the wreckage out, but by golly, he doesn't have to license those things and pay road tax on them nor do they have to be inspected!

Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
