Some years ago, about 10 if my memory serves me correct, "loser pays all costs" came up as a possibility in an effort to slow down or end frivolous lawsuits and ambulance chasing. It was about the time that "TORT reform" started to catch on. I recall hearing back then as an example that they do that in England, so if for instance I decide to go out on a limb and sue someone, I'd better have my ducks in a row, because if I sue and lose...I'm paying the costs of everything all the way around. Makes good sense to me, but it got shot down and blown out of the water.
The reason that it got shot down and blown out of the water was that lawyers, personal injury and other argued and lobbied like mad that a poor person that had been wronged could find themselves going up against high powered big $$$ lawyers and companies with unlimited financing and lose their shirts even more so, and in that many in our nation's rotunda are themselves lawyers, personal injury and otherwise...well, you know the outcome of that one...TORT reform, particularly that part became Dead On Arrival. OK, I'm game and can see that part of their argument, but I have to wonder what the percentages are, and since the other way clearly isn't working, it can't hurt to try what Gene suggested, and you seconded. I third it.
Much good luck and success to you and yours. Work and operate that stuff safely, and don't use road gear in the fields. Grin.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
