Empty Semi Trailer headed South NE to TX

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Well it looks like we are going to ink a deal on a 7020, and a 7045 just SW of Fort Worth.  Dad is buying a 7045, and I am buying the 7020 with a loader.  What this means is we will be heading South out of the Kearney/Grand Island NE area, with and empty trailer.  We are thinking of making this a three day trip, since it's getting harder and harder for dad to sit in a truck for all those road miles.  If you are interested in haveing anything hauled, the cost would be low, basically just fuel cost.  She is a thirsty ol CAT, gets about 6mph or so depending on the load, so that gives you an idea.  We are pulling a drop deck trailer, with beaver tail.  Loading and unloading equipment would have to be figured out as well.  We will have a winch of sorts, but it is powered by another tractor (yours) :-) it is basically a 5/8" cable, and a pulley tied to the trailer with a chain, and you pull off to the side.  So if you need a hand, let me know, currently we are looking at the mid to late October time frame this year.

	Well, I think it is set in stone at this point. The weekend of October 20th, we will be heading south empty, so hit me up with a PM if you are interested. I do think the route has changed a little, will be going South of Holdrege, NE, through Hays, KS, and down through the Wichita Falls, TX area.

	Your route will take you, within a mile of my place, in Burkburnett Texas ( just east of I44), I don't have a lot to show off but I can put on the coffie if you need to take a break over this way. I am not a farmer , but I do enjoy helping a farmer friend of mine.

	Hey Gary, That's a great offer, unfortunately at the moment we are taking 183/283 through Vernon. While I like the intersate for speed, I have grown to like the Two Lanes better, a lot less traffic on them than there used to be, and the country is a fair sight prettier.
