Thanks, I only pulled it in to get it out of the sun to wax it, ha! It’s a Gladiator. I have the 6 speed manual so my tow capacity is only 4,000. The Max Tow trim 8 speed AT can pull 7,600. I didn’t get it to tow with it though. Theoretically it’s enough to pull my SX190 (3,000 dry on trailer) but I haven’t tried it. The real issue is the pay load. I think the GVWR is 5,800. Well, the curb weight is like 4,700. So there ya go. Knock off 3-400 for tongue weight and you can see how that works. But I ran it on the trails at Yucca Pens WMA last weekend which is what I got it for, hence the need to wash all the dust off this weekend.

The blueberry bushes have started to flower. Before they reach "full bloom" and the field is full of bumble bees we fertilized the field today. Spread 1900# by hand. Not afraid of the bees, never been stung doing it, we just don't like to interfere with pollination.
A lot of field work ahead of the 2021 season.
Getting it done before the temp. goes to 90° later this week.
