WHX?? 48,585 #1 Posted July 7, 2022 Getting close folks. Feel free to comment and post pics here. Picked up a new 20 footer to haul horses and other stuff with so I plan on having at least 12 tractors there. Got a few out and ready to go. Most just needed a bath, gas & check the oil. 7 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 27,411 #6 Posted July 8, 2022 (edited) So far the weather liar's are calling for mid 80's during the day and mid to low 60's at night during the show. I refuse to take their word on a precipitation forecast this far out. Edited July 8, 2022 by Achto 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Very accurate forecast: It will be dark part of the time, light part of the time, and smell like exhaust all of the time… (oh, and by the way…you don’t really need that A 81 of Whx’s …. it’s too sissy for you northern Wisconsin boys. Why not put it on Norman’s hood, ornament style, and move it on over to Michigan… you know, closer to me… If Uncle Jim were to sell it to me, he’d probably buy the booze for the entire weekend with the profits… ) just sayin’… Edited July 8, 2022 by SylvanLakeWH 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,585 #22 Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) Dan says ya get four on for a long haul show good to go. Them Seniors do take up some real estate & hopefully sell the Sears so have room to buy one! Might have room on the tail for a RJ. Now the work in figuring how to tie them down. The hauler came with four D ring weld ons and they are not in favorable spots. I ordered a six pak of the recessed ones on the jungle for dirt cheap and they were supposed to be here yesterday. The jungle boned me and said the package was damaged and undeliverable, so they canceled the order! C'mon man it's a package of steel how do you damage that?!?!?
