Vermont man arrested after crushing five police cruisers with giant tractor | The Sideshow - Yahoo! News

Kubota or Massey or IH

The article said nothing about the tractor other than it was red and weighed 15,000 pounds. I wonder who makes "giant" tractor.

The pictures I saw on another sight (did not watch the video) it was a mx255 tractor. So I got kind of a kick about the police statement that it had to be the largest tractor you could get. Granted a large frame rc tractor is a big tractor by no means the biggest. But still how could these guys sit in their a/c office and not notice someone outside destroying their fleet. Kubota does not make large frame rc tractors. Base weight of mx255 is approx 20,000 pounds

I was getting ready to post that too. I wonder how they got him stopped.

Absolutely hilarious. I've wanted to do that for years, but alas, my L4200 just doesn't have the weight .

This is the picture NBC news has.

I liked the part where they said he crushed five cars. It was more than half of their fleet, which was eleven cars.

Huh?

 

[ctlguy]

Report I read said it was five cars, a van, something else I can't remember but a total of 7 units crushed.

Yep...I guess we all think it's funny...but this guy is going to be spending the next 5 years or so in jail...and taxpayers are going to pay for those vehicles.

Pretty stupid since he would have probably got no more then a few months (if that) for the pot and resisting arrest crimes...

How can they charge the guy with leaving the scene of an accident? Doesn't look very accidental to me?!
