You only haul 11 straw bales at a time? My calculation shows a bit over 10,000 pounds for the load, plus the weight of the trailer.

For the short hauls we use the 82 Dodge with just a little 318 gas and go a little slower. Back on topic, flax straw bales make good wind break material - they don't deteriorate. Our neighbor even made a couple of calf shelters out flax straw bales. :o)
