North Central Illinois | I'm not opposed to hauling it. If you have the proper equipment and secure the load according to DOT laws I wouldn't worry too much. You have a DOT number and medical card. You'll probably be fine. That is if you and your dad are looking for an adventure and want to see some country. Don't delude yourself into thinking that you are really going to save much money by doing it yourself. By the time you figure fuel and depreciation on your truck you are crowding $800. If you stop for meals or stay overnight along the way that adds to the cost as well. Then there is the possibility of a breakdown along the way that will cost you money. When all is said and done if you drive straight thru and don't stay overnight and eat nothing but McDonalds, and have no breakdowns you might clear $400 on the deal. I don't think you will have any trouble and at least you will get the tractor when you want it and know it will be treated well. I just don't see it as a huge savings money wise. Good luck! | |
