953 nut 51,712 #5 Posted September 19, 2016 Be sure you have a "New York State Certificate of Origin" so the Pennsylvania authorities don't hang you for horse rustling as you attempt to cross the state line into Virginia! 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,048 #11 Posted September 19, 2016 Howard remember to drop Roadapples off at his house on your return trip. I have heard Jay talk and he don't talk southern , he just may not fit in with us Virginia Boys. Since you love driving so much throw that Reo in your truck and drive on down here to the capital . My wife won't shoot you but I am sure you would get "The Stare " and you may have to haul my dead body back up 95. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elcamino/wheelhorse 9,048 #14 Posted September 19, 2016 If you are smart put your heart in another area, the heat and humidity suck down here. I want to move North , I getting too old and cranky to deal with the heat and humidity. It has been raining all day and the temperature in mild 70's tried to work on my 416-8 and sweat was dripping in my eyes. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DennisThornton 4,769 #15 Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) Let it be known! Transportation of a "Wheel Horse", complete or parts thereof, out of the State of New York is specifically and completely prohibited and has been since May 28th 2015! Penalties are substantial! Border Patrols are and have been on alert to such actions and are trained to retaliate with necessary force if required. Transportation of before said "Wheel Horses" complete or parts thereof into the State of New York is perfectly legal and has been since the early 1960s. May God be with those that choose to violate the laws of this fine State! Edited September 19, 2016 by DennisThornton if to of 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DennisThornton 4,769 #19 Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) @953 nut Carpricious! Capricious indeed! I'll have you know that this piece of grass roots legislation began around Plattsburgh NY, widely known for its contributions not only to this fine state but indeed to the nation as a whole in its very early years! Remember 1812! I’m sure you do! And I believe the more precise source of this concern was in the town of Peru, but anyway it quickly spread south and about the time that it overtook the entire state it had so concerned the Capital District that a special election was scheduled where it was almost unanimously passed, with but only one exception, and just in time to dissuade what had been a known loss of Wheel Horses to a gathering in the otherwise area of fine reputation, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, where in the following months such wranglers were known to gather and peddle their wares! I do of course care about preserving this state's hard earned collection of all memorability but I also would hate to see otherwise fine citizens of other states waste not only their time, but I suppose hard-earned dollars, to corral Wheel Horses only to lose them at our borders simply to do ignorance of our well-intended laws. Ignorance is indeed no excuse but I'm simply trying to help our members as feebly as I can... I beg your understanding and indulgence! (Richard, you know I appreciate your opinions, but do you think that this was a bit too much? Just trying to help...)
