Thanks, we are going to Washington Illinois. Just outside Peoria.

20 miles west of me... Have a safe trip!!!

Small world, I was there 2 nights ago for my daughters swim meet. I live about 100 miles west of Washington in Macomb. Good luck with your trip.

Got a friend that lives by Colchester.. I make it over your way couple times a year..

I actually live out in the country between Macomb and Colchester. My wife went to school in Colchester.

Also be aware that any vehicle over 16000 is required to stop at weight stations.

Thanks for all the information guys. Trip went well. Both weight stations I passed we closed when I went by. Had great weather for loading then had rain across most of Oklahoma. Thought I'd post a picture after getting loaded. Found a good place to get the ramps as flat a possible to keep the plow from high centering. Got past the first 3 mold boards but 4 didn't. Had to put a board and piece of pipe under it to allow it to roll on up. Its not in this pictures but we had 6 wheel weights put on each side of the plow to help distribute the weight some. Still had more weight forward than I would have liked, but didn't have much other choice. IMG_0571.jpgIMG_0570.jpg
