'09 doin some light work....

My aunt's Yota blew the water pump out of it so my grandpa and I drove 120 miles one way to go get it. My grandpa on the way home said "this is probably the fastest the truck has ever gone." i was running ~75mph on the way home. Couldn't even tell it was back there....

I like your grandpa's truck royal red color so much so I bought a truck with the same color.

Do you use a WD hitch?

No weight distribution hitch, no need I can move the tractor or truck around to get the weight where you need it....

Thats a pretty good looking AC you got there... and the truck too. Don't see a lot of Allis tractors around much anymore around these parts. Thats all my dad, uncles and grandpa use each year.

Thanks, my grandpa bought it 20 years ago and never does anything to it except put new tires on it and change the oil

I bet his '09 more than half of the miles are towing lol

Same with my '05, I would say in the summer months doing construction I have a trailer behind it 4 out of the 7 days.
