I'd like to meet the person who can drive 2 vehicles across country at the same time, not towing one of them with the other!

What if they were on a flatbed trailer hooked to a big truck, being hauled across the "fruited plains"?......

your tractor tho, will handle a 1000lb round on the back, & one on the front tho not necessarily at the same time & I do know a guy, that says (and has posted a pic of it with the round bale in it) he hauls a 4x5 round bale in the back of his s'burb, but he's from Maine.
( don't have 100 head of cattle or horses either)

Must be a tight fit getting a 4x5 into the back of the Suburban.
Yes my tractor will easily lift a 1,000 pound round bale. Then what? It was enough effort getting the three 400 pounders into the alpacas' 10x12 stall (*) for storage. I doubt a 1,000 pounder would fit through the stall door. And I'd not store the rounds in the upper part of the barn where I had the small squares. I don't trust the drive bay on the uphill side to support the 3,200 pound (without loader or backhoe) weight of the tractor. It MIGHT but I'd hate to wake up to the sound of the tractor crashing down out in the barn.
* they were evicted soon after they came because they decided the alley was for sleeping in, the stall for peeing and pooping.

No that would definitely be cheating!What if they were on a flatbed trailer hooked to a big truck, being hauled across the "fruited plains"?......

Am I the only one who noticed that @greybeard has a picture? If I could ever get something to take pics with that I could learn how to post....but my cell phone is an ANCIENT and basically INDESTUCTIBLE FLIP PHONE and my digital camera I can't seem to figure out how to use it to upload and my house computer is also on an ancient operating system.... time to get into the modern world one of these days...

Yes, I noticed his new picture as well. And if that is him in the picture, it looks like he cut his beard close or shaved it off completely. Mr @greybeard, sir? Inquiring minds want to know.
And you, Miss @farmerjan, it is time for you to get your picture on BYH, too! Find a neighborhood kid who can take your picture and then send the picture to you in an email.
Brilliant STA! Exactly! I'm sure her son is computer literate and has a "modern" phone if not also a camera. No more excuses Jan!
