How many Lady TBN'ers out there

[sweettractors]

This may not be the approporiate forum, however I was wondering how many Ladies were TBN members and are involved in the buying/pricing and comparing equipment. The reason I ask, is that a high percentage of my calls and emails every day are from Lady owner/operators. A lot of them are involved in operations involving horses and livestock. I can tell you they are very knowagable about thier equipment and its operation. Ken Sweet

I can't believe there are not any Lady TBN'ers out there. I am sure they would find TBN a great resource for their farming enterprises. I sure would like to hear farming and using equipment from a Womans point of view. Ken Sweet

Are you expecting all of them to say "yes, I am out here" ??

Maybe I don't understand the question...if it was a question.

Yes "I am out here" would be good. I am amazed there are not a lot Ladies taking advantage of all the TBN groups knowledge and expertise. Ken Sweet

Not delveling into the Rachael,(Just where is that "Embarrassing Moment" picture?") I really think that by and large, most tractor purchases are made by the principal bread-winners in the family. Typically, the 'Male'! At the risk of exposing myself to the 'wrath' of the 'fairer gender'! I'm sure that they have significant input into purchases. I know mine does! The Day to Day "what weight oil?, what counterbalance to use etc. etc. etc. is not of intrest, IMHO. And Yes, I know that there are women out there, that are very self-sufficient, and run Farms or Horse operations, I suspect that that they may 'listen', more than interject input. Something I could probably learn from...........~Scotty
