You'll be good to go 80km/h. I tow everything 80 even air drills. Only thing I won't tow that fast is grain bagger, if you even hit 60 with that you better learn some fancy driving or you'll be parked in the ditch, negative hitch weight is scary.
I always bring a grease gun along and stop a few times to feel if hubs are getting warm

80 with an air drill?? So you’re that guy …. 30 mph is about max there are tricks you have to do to keep the tank from going all over at that even We’ve pulled one home from North Dakota and right by border for ourselves. 20-25mph slow and steady

If that air tank starts doing the hospital wobble you’d be in the ditch before you know it at 80km. Be the tail wagging the dog.

They come into every area shut down family farms and inflate the price on everything only thing there good for is banks and machinery dealers
Sadly it’s the way it’s going. The Hutts are experts at it. They surround small farms and when you sell no one will compete because there is no way to expand and build a block. I was told every Hutt colony needs 10,000 acres to split off. Our county has the most hutt colonies of any county in Western Canada I was told. It’s getting pretty black out our way. And when you want to sell the crows start lining up on the fence lines.

I find less wobble at 80 than at 50 or 60. It was raining though so that helps keep tires cool and was just a little 2320 flexicoil cart so I wouldn't have felt it even if it did wobble. I would go way slower with these big 1000bu carts though.

When I worked down there in SW sask it was common to see him at the bar in maryfield. Guys would always try to fight him but he would always refuse. Scared him good lol. Locals dont like him because he gets to drive his equipment int he parade tossing out candy meanwhile there are guys with nicer machines. Still a cool guy though ! His wife used to be hot

His brother married a girl from Kola.(just across the border in Manitobahstan) That's how they got interested in that area.

Awww boohoo you don't get to throw the candy but your equipment is shinier and newer... waaaaahh. I swear some farmers have such giant ego's it's ridiculous.
