haul an 80S mower with a 9' sickle bar in the transport position....it may make it under the interstate overpasses....but watch out at the motels....AARGH! Good news is steel is stronger than osb and stucco....

Was too P*ssed off for pics....should of taken some so I had something to laugh at 10 years from now....I think I turned my $100 mower into a $600 mower, tho...if I am lucky. It was mostly cosmetic damage, but the lighted "10 Foot Clearance" sign I also took out might be kinda spendy...I have $500 deductible on comp and $1000 on collision....hope it will fall under comp.

It happens Eldon, I took an overhead wrought iron fair sign out with our bucket truck once (Yes, York Fair for you locals) Control stuck & did not set boom down fully. Fair Manager asked if I took out any signs lately for years after that every time he saw me. I finally told him I was glad he never made any mistakes, he never asked after that. Hope you don't have to go back there again...Harvey
