That's a BIG 10 4 there Rubber Duckie. In a few months I turn 60. I've been on or around tractors since day one. Most of these acronyms are still new to me. We always called a FEL a loader back in the stone age

How about at TLB==Tractor, Loader, Backhoe. Or as I grew up calling them, a backhoe.

Ohhh, so that 'F' stands for folding.

Ohhh, so that 'F' stands for folding.

It can also refer to the structure when forgetting to fold before entering garage or other low clearance areas.

When referring to the missus', DW=Dear Wife, or DW=dumb wife, apply as needed.

I just saw on another board where someone who was describing some piece of equipment said, "It can be a real wife (another word for her) to operate."

I hope she doesn't read his post.

Seriously, TBN could use a glossery of terms. It could have brief explanations of terms as well as their acronymns and links to more in depth explanations (like the PTO reference at TractorSmart).

I'd be glad to help if there is interest from the TBN grand poobahs.
