Most economical way to move tractor to dealer

[tacticalturnip]

Roading a tractor to the dealership seems like such an enjoyable time compared to trailering.

I'm not too far from my dealer, 15-20 minutes away by truck, but my obese little Kioti only makes 9 MPH in high, on flat ground.

For OP, however, I would third the local rollback option. Unless they have something larger than the SCUT/CUT's common on here.

Someone's large AGCO machines wouldn't fit on the Freightliner M2 I had the joy of driving for a few months.

Only my small challenger would fit on my GN. The others are too wide (requires a special permit)

Don’t forget the 5th chain & binder for the loader.
From start to finish, it takes me 45 minutes to hook up the gooseneck and chain a tractor down.
In 45 minutes, I’m 25 miles down the road in the tractor.

Anything over an hour’s drive and I’ll load it on the trailer.

There isn’t a road in MY area where you run 60MPH pulling a trailer. I trailer 75 loads of hay a year and I average about 40MPH.

I live in hilly & old school “coastal” PA, where driving is misery. You live in the flatlands of Florida, where the driving is actually a pleasure.

One of the positives of living in the flatlands lol.

Here’s a time when I had to load the small Challenger up.
