Wish I had a photo of this but I don't.

A few years ago my neighbor thought it would be "OK" to drive across an areas where he was "pretty sure" there was no septic tank. He did this with a tractor with 18.4 x 38 rears that were loaded plus had cast rear centers and maximum wheel weights. That puppy was heavy. Not sure what it weighed but he broke through the lid of his septic tank and dropped the wheel into the ground a few feet. What a sight and it took a huge backhoe and some time to get it out. But wait, there's more.

The tractor needed an oil pan, oil pump, front tie rod, axle support and something else. I said have the used parts UPS'd but he wanted to drive the 100 miles and pick them up. I say "wanted to" because his poorly maintained vehicle wouldn't work and he asked me to drive at the last minute. I was reluctant...but...

He's not great on directions and we got lost and confused several times. The last time we accidentally passed too close to a stopped trooper and I got a ticket. Neighbor was silent. My neighbor passed away a couple years ago and while I miss him, I don't miss these adventures.

I was able to get it out using the hoe and loader. It took about three hours and i had to back ir out probably 25 yards. The area looked dry when i went in. Now it looks like a swamp.

It's funny how that happens. When you show people the aftermath, they wonder what you were thinking.

And it all seemed so good just before the tires sunk to China with that "squish sound"
