Have you seen the wildfire lifts like the folks on YouTube are using? Derrick
on Vice Grip Garage has one. They have wheels they can lift up on to move

I figured the transport (about 450 miles) is going to be in the neighborhood
of $2,000. A Case 580 or equivalent (about a 75hp machine) from the mid to late
'80s runs $15,000-20,000. The pressurized Deere is $3,500...
I'd rather find a Case 380 or equivalent (50hp machine) in that same age

Biodiesel is a good idea. There used to be a pump on Montague next to Fox
Music, but he insisted on charging about 50 cents more than pump diesel. I
explained to him once that my car got about 10% worse mileage on pure

Correct.
The first seller just signed the title and didn’t date it. Thanks for that
clarification - it shows you have to have some collusion on the seller’s part
to make it happen, that, or convince them they shouldn’t date it.
