well today was a beautiful day so I took some time to take some pics. I had to haul some hay to a group of cows that winters about 10 miles from the home place. Got to move about 100 bales, and got half of it done today, I'll finish tommarow, gotta have something to do since there isnt any football anymore. getting ready to load  loading   loaded and ready to leave the feild   at the pasture and ready to unload  you crank the jack, this trailer also has a cylinder on the front of the latches so when I pull it with my hydra bed pickup I can unpin the jack and use the hydraulics on the pick up to unload without getting out of the truck.  and the racks flip up and roll the bales off the trailer  anyway thanks for looking.

Sweet pics. Only picking up one bale at a time. No wonder you only got 50 hauled. ;D ;D Why did you have the old man's truck? Where were you hauling from, were you up on Abbot? You need to get one of the new one's Cliff makes and pull it with the Volvo. I think they will haul around 20 or so. Craig Gebhard has one.
gng, Those definitely are some good hay trailers. I should know I used to make them. When I worked there we shipped a lot of them to Davidson Implement down in OK. ;D

yeah, one bale at a time, didnt you see the front end off of the 4450 sitting at deere? 7 grand latter daryl said we should stick to just lifting one bale at a time, plus I think the pump in the 4450 is getting weak, it cant even lift 2 anymore. It sounds crazy, but dads truck actually pulls alot better than mine, dont know why. And why buy a trailer that can only be pulled by a truck thats never here, lol. We want to trade it for a 12 bale, and put a ball on the volvo, that way we can pull it with a pickup or a semi. I was loading out north of my house and going up on the Jackson place. We sold all the hay up on Abbotts.

Wendell has like 50 and 73 or something. Conrad are higher numbers. One of his is a prototype. That they never produced. I think the orange ones are the oldest.
