so I got my soil tests back, I need about 5 tons of lime. I can get it from the Greenville coop for $60 a ton and that will include use of the buggy. I'm about 35 miles away. My place is pretty flat with just a few slight inclines, nothing major...and dry as long as it hasn't rained in the last 24 hours. I have a 5065e cab tractor with a front end loader. Trying to decide if I should go for it in one shot or break it up into 2 trips. What say ya'll? Easy decision. Two trips!!!

Here in Lee Co its about $70 ton spread with AG lime.

I left the quarry last year in my 2005 DC tundra with a 2 ton dump trailer loaded with lime and my total weight was 15K pounds. Truck weighs a little over 5K and I doubt the trailer was more than 2K.
It didn't have any trouble pulling it. But you knew it was back there.
5 tons of ag lime is not very much. I hauled 24 tons of it in about 9 trips. How did you spread it? I'm not worried about getting it from the coop to my property.

If it’s not stored under a barn and you have got the amount of rain we have lately, there’s no way I’d try to spread it. Got the t/shirt on that one.
Guy at co-op swore it was dry enough to spread. Naturally no shovel, by myself and could only find a steel fence post to bust through after it bridged over the drag chain. Quick job took most of the day.
"Cull" is just another four letter word...
