Popular Post h67st Posted June 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 3, 2019 I saw online today this guy, Ivan Stoltzfus, is pulling his camper across the US with a John Deere A (with Peterbilt cab) to thank veterans and raise money to help vets that need help. Interesting tractor! 5 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57470-the-straight-story/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd guess his up-time is off the map in comparison to the final tier 4's and some carriers want to hire him...…...especially since he will do East Coast. 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57470-the-straight-story/#findComment-424349 Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavyGunner Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 It’s on backwards, but as far as being better on pavement I have no clue which is normal I guess. 1 Quote The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

NoClueJoe66 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Supposedly the tires will wear less on pavement mounted backwards.
