Hay is in short supply in my area(North Florida-South Georgia) because drought conditions allowed only one cutting this year. I usually get hay hauled to me, but had to contract with someone located approximatley
1.5 hours away. I was able to get 200 bales, but I must pick it up. I have a gooseneck trailer that is 8 feet wide and 32 feet long with a 25,000 pound capacity, including the trailer, leaving me about 18,000 pounds to load. The trailer has hydraulic over electic brakes. I have a Ford F-350 diesel with automatic transmission to pull it with. I know that small, square bales vary in size and weight somewhat, but would it be realistic to try to haul 200 bales at one time, given the truck and trailer set-up that I have? I don't want to get too much weight on the trailer and having it push the truck around. Thanks
