kthack657 254 #27 Posted June 29, 2015 it wasnt a wheel horse... it was a 4 wheel cart, and we drove from Bensalem, PA to 50 miles from the CT/MA border, 150 miles each way so a total of 300 miles... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lane Ranger 10,496 #30 Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) I bought a 1965 Wheel Horse 1054-A in Toronto, Canada several years ago and drove 1200 miles total from Greencastle, Indiana through Port Huron, Michigan and back home again to get this tractor and attachments. I bought a bunch of 1054 parts from Joe's in Michigan and picked them up first! Edited June 29, 2015 by Lane Ranger 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 22,234 #31 Posted June 29, 2015 It is about 650 miles from my house to the Big Show...1 way...about 1300 round trip. The 1st year I went, I won the raffle tractor...the bad thing is...I just went for my 6th year in a row. I should just move out there. BTW, I have gone to the show and picked up a few horses for a couple of guys that are in Minnesota...another 400 miles (1 way). So when you add it up, I have gone over 2100 miles round trip to drop off a horse. Shynon is getting one of those this year. WTF was I thinking??? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whats that, about 7,000 miles (11,000km +/- for you metric systemers)?I drove about 200 miles round trip today to pick up a tiller from @KC9KAS who drove about 1300 miles round trip and brought it back from the big show for me!There's some pretty neat people in this hobby! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
