This is almost as good as the story a relative told me about a haul he did with a 70's 1/2 ton Ford with a 360. He had 18000 LB plate on this truck as he pulled a goose neck trailer with it. His Dad was building a new house so he went to town to get some material. He got some concrete block and stack them over the axles to form a box so he could also haul some sand. He got every thing loaded up and headed home. He made it OK until he got about three miles from home. In his route home is a pretty steep hill. He had to go to compound to get over the hill. He though there was something wrong with the 360 in his 1/2 ton Ford. Anyone who ever had one of these engine knows they were no power house. He made it home and after unloading. His truck seamed fine. He then got to figuring the load he had on the trailer. Turned out he had over 30K on the trailer. NOT BAD for a 1/2 ton Ford. Another neighbor related about towing a FULL fertilize spreader with an S-10 and going down a local hill with a curve he had not considered. He said if he had of touched the brake he would have crashed.

My curiosity was up and I wanted to contact the owner. I wanted to see what he planned to do with the combine.
