when i got my power trac about 2 and a half years ago, my wife and i drove to tazewell in our car and rented a u-haul box truck to bring my tractor home , it was cheaper than their shipping. however you are getting a lot more attachments than i did so i don't know what it would cost for a larger truck. the good things about picking it up is the training class they give you plus you can try out the equipment before you buy it, and they also paid for a motel room for the night and took us out for lunch.

Man you had to go and let us know this without giving us the details /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif...

Let the guessing begin....

My guess would be some sort of backhoe...

Hans:

You didn't really think I'd leave for two weeks without a laptop, did you? I/m in Kearney Nebraska, in a motel.

You know, some companies hire ad agencies to get the word out about their products. Power Trac does it by telling Bubenberg and then telling him to keep it a secret. Lots wider coverage that way./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Gentlemen, I spoke with Sean about a new attachment last Friday (Aug. 16). He said I might want to wait on getting a trailer since they were working on something new in the way of trailers. He didn't tell me not to tell, so here's what I remember of the details: PT is a few weeks away from having a "trailer" that you push in front using the quick attach plate. He described it as Y-shaped. The trailer has a place to hold the large bucket and can be dumped by raising the lift arms. It sounds like something that would also function well as a carry-all to put all your stuff in when you need to take several attachments to far off places to do work.Hope that helps. Take care. Ken
