You see the problem here, right? That tractor setting out there all alone in the woods is more attractive than ever to thiefs. I trailered my machine to my rural property and spent 30$ in transportation and 20$ in tractor fuel (today's diesel cost). I filled my diesel barrel last year for a price per gallon in the 2$ range.
