ad11ad, welcome to the board and congratulations on your new tractor! Your first pic has me jealous (I've been thinking of a 2310 or bigger for some time now). Your second pic though, has me scared. Forgive the safety lecture, but I've read too many posts about kids getting killed (sorry for the strong words, too, but they're real) riding around like yours is in that picture. If you're not familiar, do a search and read about some of the safety considerations of taking a passenger on your lap. Have fun, but for the sake of you and your family, please be safe.
