Went to an auction in Cecil Co, Md a few years ago, was walking around as a F800 ford farm truck loaded with a farmall MD diesel tricycle facing backwards drove by. I noticed that the floor of the truck had holes in it big enough to drop a market hog through. I think it had maybe 3 good boards left on it. Tractor had no chain or strap on it, and as the truck hit some old furrows in the field-you know up and down like a ship at sea, with each forward lurch of the truck the tractor lurched equally in the opposite direction, in keeping with the laws of physics, you see. Before I could run to get his attention, he made a hard left as the front end of the tractor pitched out the back end of the bed, bounced mightily for a couple of seconds, then the driver got the truck stopped. They had to get a rollback to pick the front end of the tractor out of the hole it had made in the soft dirt, and unload it the rest of the way. The guy driving was a local tractor jockey dealer referred to by some in the area as Eddie Eaglebeak. Whenever I see Eddie Eaglebeak at an auction, I always point out the rows of stuff that have chains and binders in them, and ask him whether he's dropped anything off at this sale?
