James,
You're right, he is trying and it is tempting, and I'd be lying if I said I'd thought of much else since talking to him about it yesterday. My wifes reaction was pretty decisive though. There is a difference between her and your wife and most of the other wives here on TBN, she's driven the tractor a total of about 15 ft after a LOT of encouragement on my part, and she hated every foot :laughing: That's the sum of her experience on a tractor. Getting her to go to my dealer and actually get out of the car would be as easy as her getting me to go to a weekend scrap-booking convention:laughing: Here's what she wants me to do, in order of course.
1) Sell my CK, take the money and invest it, forget I ever had a tractor.
2) Give my CK away, any takers?
3) Re-consider #1.
4) Stop using it, tarp it off to hide it and forget it's there, maybe plant some shrubs around it.
5) Use the bh to dig a really big hole and bury it. This is only behind #4 because it would involve me spending more time on the tractor!
The only glimmer of hope I have is that she can't believe how much my CK breaks. After this last time she asked me how much they're going to charge to come and fix it after the warranty is over and how much it's going to cost if they have to haul it away. This, and the fact that she knows me and that my complaints about my tractor not being able to do everything I want it to means it's a sure bet one day I'll trade up anyway, might get me a yellow light, and we all know what to do when the light goes yellow!
