Yes I met John ,Gary in parts and Steve Barlow who did the paper work for my son and myself.Brad gave me the price over the phone for both tractors before we went down but he lives in Lexington,KY and does the internet part of the business and did not meet him.My son also bought a 6ft bushhog which is pictured on the trailer.About those yellow straps,they are from tractor supply and only about 20 miles from Barlows going home we stopped to check everything and one of the yellow straps was cut right through the fabric.The big tractor was tied down with chains while the bushhog and small tractor had those yellow straps.We had to than use a chain with a rug wrapped around it to prevent from damaging the tractor.To me its amazing we traveled a total of about 1200mi and no damage to anything.The truck is my son's 1997 ford diesel with almost 300k on it and a small diesel engine.He was going to purchase a chip for it before we left but never got around to it. So going up the hills was a little chore with all the weight of the trailer and tractors. My son drove all the way because with that trailer you need a class 1 or Cdl license.I would not want to drive all that distance pulling that load.The weather going and coming home was really bad.It rained most of the way down and back. Looking back at the trip I would say you really have to get a good deal on a tractor from them because of the expense of going down ,fuel ,food ,tolls , staying a night over and time.To have the big tractor delivered to our home location would have cost $750.00 but my son wanted to check it out before buying it. It was as Steve Barlow described in great condition for that amount of hours.Now I can say I was once at Barlows farm Equipment in Ky.My savings on the BX2660 was about $1000.00 of what I would have had to pay in my area.

Never mind the tractors, I think you should sell me your truck if it a diesel

I WAS NOT AT BARLOWS!!! I haven't been to Barlows in over a week, I've been in Alabama.
Troy came to my house and visited me on his way going to Hazard, Ky. I live on the hill overlooking Hwy 80 going east out of Somerset. TTroy stopped at Barlows before coming to my house. I wasn't at Barlows.
Now I will be at Barlows in a couple of days to pick up my new 4' Rotary mower.

Just to make it clear, I ment, that when I was in Somerset, I meet Johnthomas. Sorry for any confusion that this may have caused..... I must remember that words mean something. And not to get this thread any futher off course.

OP great post about the road trip. I will be heading to the Jamestown NY area for Monday, and working toward Hornel NY, on the WNYP RR, all next week.
