Does your tractor sleep inside or outside

[JGY]

Mine sleeps under the old oak tree.

... possibly in the Patriot Hall area -- the historic district?

We poured 6" for our garage and it held a small dozer (7000 pounds) just fine.

I poured 6" -- fiber reinforced -- for my JD 2305 with attachments -- 1450 lbs for the tractor.

tomd999-- Is that a Huffy mower? seems like I ran one of those when I was a kid... weighed more than I did, as I recall. Remember the weird wheel location.

Update on tractor quarters-- while priming & attaching plywood to the inside walls of my garage this fall, I got this idea.... Only temporary at this point, but the tractor now has some protection from precipitation. Seems to work very well.

Used the blower for the first time this year yesterday, moving a real soupy mix of 4" of snow followed by about an inch of rain. Slowed it down some, but it was still able to handle it- what a change from the ol' walk-behind! Lottsa ice, lost power for 8 hours. Sun peeked through for a few minutes.

My tractor stays inside. As much as these machines cost, it only makes sense to keep it looking nice.

Mike Costello, awesome shop man. I would kill to have that space to work on stuff...

Under a roof of course!

My tractor sleeps in the cold but inside a temporary winter car shelter, took a while to find one that was high enough for the cab. Basically it's a large tent. It's a far cry from a heated garage but I have a construction propane heater that will rise temp inside to above freezing for monthly maintenance and I have access to my BIL's body shop for emergencies. Next summer I plan on modifying my existing heated garage to accommodate the tractor even though I am told that it's not a good idea to "thaw" the tractor every night in cold climes. Those who came up with this theory probably never tried to perform the simplest of task with both hands frozen.

Inside heated garage. The warm plow blade helps the snow
stick to it. Oh Great. elad

Sure wish we had a 'Poll' option here at TBN.

Inside a unheated garage.
