Buster 50 - 9/21/2014 19:27 With a 7300 gal wagon, you will need to haul 205 loads each time. 3 mile haul will kill you, 20min. each way min and another 20 to load and dump it will take 8 days running 24/7. Your adj. tractor will be running all that time burning fuel. Very inefficient even if you do have the time. I would think a minimum of 3 tanks would be necessary. Better yet, get a hose and some pumps. You'll need 1 or 2 helpers.




I agree that 1 tank hauling 3 miles will be slow and a lot of fuel burned through the pump tractor.



But if it takes an hour to make a round trip on a 3 mile haul you need to get a faster tractor and kick it in the but.
