throw a slowmoving triangle on it and tell the cop it's your tractor ;)

dealer plate or a repair in transit plate. may be a parade permit? or the famous f**k it and do it and worry about the it latter, just trailer it over there.

X2 on the f**k it ideal i think if you got her in a dress next to ya the cop shold let you slide, just dont be doing any thing stupid on the road

I agree, I'd just drive it and worry about it later. If you put JUST MARRIED all over it and streamers and whatnot they're probably not going to bother you. Now, this is coming from someone who lives out in the sticks and knows all the cops so take it with a grain of salt.

I think it will depend a lot on where you are driving.  44s wont be that bad on the street.... more so if you live outside of metro detroit.

I plan on driving my Blazer on 44s on the street quite a bit.


And with wedding stuff on it... I dont think you would have a problem.

my uncle did it for his wedding. This was in the mid 90's though. If I remember there were over 10 trucks and there's was huge. They drove right through Waterford with no issues but that was then.

No cop or court system would let a lifted truck slide as farm equipment.
