Thanks Bux, had most of that figured out except the drivetrain, but I guess there would be several options available in this situation, as long as you could come up with the needed HP to pull the load.
bbs1965, can't speak for TX, but having traveled there, and OK, NM, CO, and UT in the past 20 years, plus a few trips through the states north of this area, there are a lot of projects around, but they ain't next to the interstate. All a guy has to do is look around the countryside a little, which I realize is not easy for a lot of people to do, but they are out there.
