When I was a little guy my dad And I went to the fair and I walked under one of them tractors. Always did impress me.

My Dad and I farm 1000 acres. That used to be a good sized farm but not anymore. We are small beans today compared to some of these guys around. A new tractor like that today will run around 400 grand. way to pricey for my pocket book. They used to be priced cheap because they were not utilized for much more than pulling a disk but today they are used for much much more. They were once considered cheap horsepower but not anymore. The tires are 6 feet high and with the high cab, it really helps with visibility. I'll post some pics of my other ponies when we get back out in the field.CF

Just imagine, two hundred years ago, what a farmer with a mule and one blade would have thought if he ran upon that horse. They would have had to catch him with a net, and put him in a rubber room!

sounds like you need a hunting companion & a surveyor

Please do post more pics.

Major power there

If'n I could have hooked that thang up to the biggun, maybe it wouldn't have got away!
