Does anyone else have a name for their tractor

[crestlinefarm]

My old Craftsman riding lawn mower was named "The Goat" for it's ability to eat through anything.
My tractor, when I finally find it, will be named Bonsai. Since I'm looking at small Japanese tractors, that will be fitting.

My BX1500 is named "Mary Anne", the name of Mike Mulligan's steam shovel in the old children's book. I'm going to retire in the basement next to Mary Anne when I'm old.

'Ruth.'

I have named most every machine I have loved 'Ruth.' I met the original Ruth in Ocean Beach/San Diego in 1976 when I was 18. She was strolling down the beach in a spectacular little bathing suit and gave me a little smile. Struck up a conversation, yaddah, yaddah, yaddah. Best vacation I ever had. If you had met Ruth, you would name equipment after her for the rest of your life. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

My wife thinks I name my machinery after my ornery Aunt Ruth from Omaha. It's pretty easy to pull off because there is machinery all over the Midwest named after my Aunt Ruth.... /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Since my tractor is a Sub-Compact Utility Tractor-Loader-Backhoe, or SCUTLB, I think I'll try "Scuttlebee."

How many guys can say in front of the wife and get away with it and say I'm going out to ride Barbie now? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I see we have some "closet" dirty old men on this thread.....Riding Barbie....................that would get me the couch, probably for a week!!!!

Boondox calls his tractor Clementine though I've never asked why.

My partner's name is Betsy. Drives the wife crazy. Sometimes I will say, "Well, I'm going out with the ho". She knows I mean the Backhoe though. /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

That means something entirely different in Detroit!!!

At least her first name isn't Ida!!

Sometimes, what you post can be taken out of context!!!
