I am in the market for a smaller tractor for small acreage in Florida. Field mowing a few acres, pushing horse manure and dirt around occasionally, and that is about it for now. I sadly must shop remotely using the net as my guide as I am out of country. I am currently researching and...

Earlier I posted a rant about the large gulf between dealer pricing in my area and my local guy being unwilling to budge. I got my tractor from another town and I am happy with the device. I decided to man-up and sit down with the local guy and inform him of my decision and reasoning. I also...

to own an early 60's or older Chevy pick up for your farm to be considered proper? Certainly you can have a farm lacking a 1956 3100, but is it kosher? Here in Idaho most farms(regardless of size) have at least two and the visual impresion I get is: all is well in the world. I don't have one...
