Photo advice for posting

Yea, both front tires are like doughnuts and have about as much traction as oil on slick ice (could they be "R-0" tires?? /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif). IN fact, I was driving up hill one rainy day and turned to go sideways...the front end just slid totally uncontrolled until the front was facing downhill /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

The burn was indeed, very impressive. It's interesting to me how the photos turned out. They tended to flatten it and lose the scale. I was glad I happened to accidently have Brutus in backround to give SOME sense of proportion.

Nice pic! I was wrestling with a similar pile like yours. Did you know there's about $300. worth of sheet metal, plastic, and headlights in the front end of a L4610 when one of those long ones gets away from the bucket, clears the guard, and encounters the front end?

No, Mutt I didn't know that. I DO know however, that when the transmission filter is (hypothetically of course /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif) impaled from a broken off sapling sticking out of the ground roughly 4 feet that transmission fluid sprays everywhere and Brutus goes nowhere /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Richard, I learned years ago to never judge a book by its cover. That same analogy applies to equipment, people, and darn near everything as you know. Just because ugly is, don't mean ugly does, Brutus is a fine looking speciman of a 'work-horse'! He also appears to know what work is all about!
