I wish I could give some awesome explanation. Yesterday I got pissed and fired her up after connecting the terminals that have been discounted for a bit. After warm I noticed error wasn't flashing dropped into reverse and both manual and auto popped up on dash, it locked up and died.
Dropped the oil went to Rotella t6 5-40 and Lucas oil Stabilizer and she backed up. Threw a clutch reset at it and took off. Sounds stupid but that's how she got under power.
Felt good rolling around in my own machine again it's last good weekend was directly after the Takeover. Was a great ride and beyond words to roll alongside my daughter, we hit a couple things pretty hard had what a blast
That’s awesome! Rotella is magic oil! Lol

Not sure if you're aware but that T6 is no longer rated for gas engines.

I just checked the stuff I have - its got the API C ratings for Diesel and Jaso MA/MA2 but no S ratings. It used to.

They have a new one called T6 Multi-Vehicle for Diesel and Gas but no wet clutch ratings.

So CP. It seems like PJ has been back in action for almost 6 weeks and we certainly don't seem to have a lot of actual photographic evidence/proof that you are still riding???????????????????????
Well honestly we haven't been able to much. Life in the way. Only been back out riding twice since but plan some shortly hopefully:)

Hay season is even worse. I'm not sure what we scale at cause we are in the country on small roads or gravel and don't go far or fast, but 15 big rolls should be around 42000-45000 lbs before you figure the trailer weight. Probably around 50,000 total. Again we don't go far or fast but it's loaded and you know it.

Hay bales come in various sizes, but I have never seen any that even come close to 3000# ...... lol. Large 6x6 bales, wound tight may be 1200# ...... I have seen a FEW of these. I have never seen a 1500# bale. Yes, I have weighted a number of loads after buying hay at the chip mill scales next door. The heaviest verified load I pulled with 3500 Duramax was 40K++, loaded with green cypress. Pulling was fine, stopping ...... not so much ..... lol.

I’ve never put one on a scale but ours aren’t square bales they are the round rolls. Several of the farmers around us estimate them between 2-3k lbs each depending on how damp they are and how tight your machine rolls it. I do know I’ve scaled my toyhauler at 33k lbs and pulling hays feels substantially heavier. The 33k includes the truck as well fully loaded with 5 guys. Can’t remember what the trailer itself weighed.

Guess I should have stated that I was speaking of round bales. We don't have large square bales around here. Yes, that is why I weighed them, because I too had doubt about the farmers estimated weight ..... lol. If a round bale is that heavy due to moisture, it is way too wet and did not dry enough. As a general rule when figuring load weight, I allow 8K for each the truck and trailer, to be in the ball park of load weight.
