Ah yes.... I remember those days.... hop on the Ford 3000 for a spin around the 80 acres... Those days are gone. While I enjoy tractor driving, running a commercial mowing business in the summer tends to take the polish off the enjoyment. Mowing lots in 95* heat and 90% humidy to keep the show running is mostly work. 15 days til closing on our new home in the country will certainly help, maybe it's just living in town that keeps me from that enjoyment!

In my profession i'am indoors all day long,no windows to look out ,never know when it starts to rain and have to deal with sick people who are usually not in the best of moods.At the end of the day i have to do something outside to retain my sanity. Three years ago i bought my first tractor and i must say that it is much more than just an expensive toy(as my wife likes to call it). My blood pressure begins to fall as soon as i hear the diesel engine start. I enjoy driving over my property just puttin' along forgetting the cares of the day.It is the best therapist i've ever known and worth every penny i paid for it.

There are lot others out here who would mirror your feelings. Just the sound/smell of the diesel seems to change the neurotransmiter system to makeing all the good ones and that warm happy glow starts to prevail and the grin starts to get bigger and pretty soon it's " Who cares, I'm having FUN time "

You're cruel, John!! That is a little beauty!! I saw it mentioned in KC's ad, but I hoped it was a wreck, since they didn't have a picture. Well, if they have it long enough, we may check it out. My wife could help me with the snowplowing with that little baby!! This weekend, I'll be checking out some somewhat larger tractors./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

I think Joy should be allowed to ride her tractor whenever she wishes. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

I've only used my tractor twice in real work since I've purchased it. Once to pull on that tree that blew over and once to push snow. Pulling that tree probably took all of 15 minutes and playing in the snow maybe 1.5 - 2 hrs (experimenting with the grader blade). Yet I've put several hours on the tractor since I brought it home. Hmmmm /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif. That grass has to green up any day now and I still have to figure out a way to use it to pull cattails out of the pond!

Boy, that is a nice looking tractor. I had looked at a few of them before I got my Ingersoll. I love the looks of them, but for the price people are asking, and how usefull it would be to me, I had to pass. I can get a lot more work out of the Ingersoll. I still keep my eye open, would still like to find one some day, but money has to go other places for now/w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif
