A very good friend was trying to get his corn done yesterday and was out of room, bins and wagons all full. So I took one of the semis over for him to fill directly out of the field. HE has an older MF 860 that he just bought this year. HE always had a MF 550 up until now. He is just getting used to everything being different. One of them being he now has a larger grain tank on this combine. Then you add in me taking the "new" trailer which has 84 inch sides rather than 72 inch sides like we always used to have. He had the trailer loaded level full. HE had the corn contracted with an ethanol plant that I could get to without getting off of country gravel roads other then the last half mile. So I drove slow and careful. Crossed the scales weighing 109,680 lbs. gross, 1360 bushels of corn. The truck is legal to 96K but he kind of missed that. LOL
There are two good parts of this. First he got done with his corn crop. Second, I did not encounter any DOT officials on the trip. LOL Almost 7 ton over would not have been a fun ticket.

Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
