I have watched, read, and started replying. There are some very smart people on this board and it is nice to see all the help that is out there. It is nice to see there are still people out there willing to help others.

I have been coming to TBN for about 6 months now, In this time I have weighed brands of tractors,implements,and tools. I have learned a great deal from reading the posts of experts such as 3RRL, JerryG, and EddieW.
3RRL and his how to's are second to none.
JerrryG's knowledge of the MF brand is what lead me to purchase my 1533.
Eddie's ambition to build his own lake has inspired me to embarq on my on projects.
I have only begun to scratch the surface of what TBN has to offer.
Thank you to the staff here for putting together such a wonderfull place.

What TBN means to me is friendship. I found this place while searching for a compact tractor to replace our IH2500b monster. It had grown too big and I was interested in a practical machine. I lurked for a couple months reading and trying to decide if I wanted to hop into this discussion group...until I read this thread:

Goodbye Kubota Hello Power Trac

by Mark Chalkley. That did me in. I signed up, logged on and started asking questions! Thanks to Mark and PTRich (formerly known as willingtonpizza) I was hooked on the Power Trac. As I became more comfortable with just asking questions, I started having conversations with many other members about many things. Mark, PTRich, Harv, CowboyDoc, RobS, Hazmat and Bird were(and still are) the poster boys for what TBN stands for... "Neighbors helping neighbors." I've met a handful of those neighbors over the last five years. RobS lives close to me. Pajoube and I have visited each other's homes and families. Garry (Golfgar4) visited RobS and me and we had time to share a meal together. There are still many members that I'd like to meet in person and spend a couple hours talking with. (I've left too many out of the list but I could post a hundred folks I'd like to meet up with)Good things to look forward too.

That brings me to the folks in the Power Trac forum... It is hard to put into words the feelings I have for the folks over there. They welcome everyone, put down no one and are absolutely the finest folks on the face of the planet. I look forward to reading that forum like I look forward to an icey cold Coke on a hot afternoon or a warm fireplace on a cold winter's night. They are simpley the best.

And finally, I would like to thank Hakim, Muhammad and Ibrahim for providing us with this place that we so look forward to each day. The work, thought and moral standards that they put forth on a daily basis is what really makes this place special. I can log in here and have no fear of what will pop up on my screen if my family is in the room. I can share the stories and photos with my kids. It is like a good old fashioned country store where everybody knows everybody and can share a laugh or a tear over the pickle barrell. Thanks to ALL TBN members for making this possible. I look forward to another million posts.

you cant help but to love a site where there is such a diverse group of people from all different backgrounds, all with the same interests,.... tractors.... jon

Well TractorByNet has been the most valuable research tool and is what has helped me to decide on the 2 solid purchases that I made. Also the friendships that I have made through the years has been great. This place is what I reccommend for people asking me about what tractors to purchase. That way they dont have a bias opinion about what color tractor to purchase. One thing about this place is, it is very diverse in all the information it has from all the outstanding contributors here. Well that and the fact that its owner has compiled the best research book there is out there. Happy 1,000,000 Muhammad

TBN has been great for me. I am in the process of buying a tractor and this site has been better help than anything else. I've also gotten tons of tips and ideas for after I get the tractor.

TBN has been an invaluable resource. I have learned much and I hope I have returned the favor to other members. TBN is what the Internet should be about!

Guys I apologize for not responding sooner. You see I no longer get a chance to review all the threads in all the categories as TBN has grown so much since I first joined. A fellow member and friend Spiker told me of this thread, so here we go.

I compare TBN to a coffee-house where friends can come in, sit down, chat, and share ideas on the things that we all love. And sometimes even the not-so-pleasant things that touch us from time to time.

It's a special diverse place that you can visit where one member proudly talks about his brand-new pole barn, while another member posts a cherished family recipe, or yet another shares his grief over the loss of his family pet.

I am proud to be a member of the TBN community, and thank all that make this place home to many.

It is great to share the experience and fauilures with people who has similar interests. TBN is like going home and telling stories how is the world outside.
