One other odd story that might surprise a person: One of my friends was planting wheat with a drag type Great Plains fold up wheat drill. He hit a soft spot and almost got stuck - as he was rocking forward and backing up to get out - the hitch pin came out of the hitch... Since he had raised the implement up on it's wheels and it was full of wheat - it made it rear heavy and tilted backwards, raising the hitch up about the same time he started backing up... It stabbed the hitch (roughly a six by six inch square beam) through the Sound Gard cab on his tractor, under his arm, and out the front of the cab next to the exhaust pipe before he got it shut down... Didn't even hurt him - but he was just six inches from being shish-kebabed on that hitch... HH
