Junkman takes the ride of his life

[PineRidge]

Junkman and I were exchanging posts April 1st at around 8AM. He has not responded since so this may indeed be legitimate. I certainly hope that he is well. I also think that with the number of members that know him that a moderator might move this thread to safety or news so others might see it as well.

I may be gullible but if someone tells me that a friend was injured then they have my full attention and best wishes.

If this is an April Fool's joke "lamarbur" then curses on you! /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif May your tractor tires see a hundred nails and your fuel tanks see only water. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Good Morning folks. I spent an exciting day yesterday and had a restful nights sleep last night. Must have been something in that little white pill that I had taken. I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their concern and well wishes. I am quite surprised at those doubting Thomas's that would have you believe that I would even consider this as a April Fools prank. I would have thought that you would know better of me than to do something like this. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif Getting back to the accident, well, I would just rather not discuss it. It was a terrible event to say the least. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif Fortunately the only thing that was really damaged is my pride as a tractor operator. The Kubota suffered only minimal damage and fortunately for me, it turns out that my BX22 is an experimental model that Kubota was toying with mass producing. The down side of that is that the damaged part is no longer available. I cannot say enough good things about the safety designs of the Kubota product. The dealer informed me this morning that they are getting me standard replacement parts to replace the damaged experimental one. Please see attached picture of damage. Thanks for your concerns..... All is well now and we can resume talking tractors.... can't we??? /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Junkman that steering wheel isn't the only thing around here that was filled hot air. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Although I would care very much for Junkman's safety and well-being......I just don't trust that crowd as far as I could throw the whole lot of 'em. Kinda figgered it being April 1st and all..... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
