I just can't help it; whenever I see a (removed) tractor the word: "toy" pops into my mind. I was raised in CA where we really didn't utilize big wheel tractors since all the heavy work was done with Cats, but EVEN THEN we regarded the Ferds with sort of a chuckle because they were so lightweight and, well...... powerless? GREAT for feeding chickens; zooming out to see how the irrigation water was doing; teaching kids like me to drive before we graduated up to the John Deeres; and maybe raking hay. Anything tougher than that was kind of.......well.......out of their league. Incredibly, they still command a HUGE price in the west since every little "ranchette" owner wants one.
