You didn't see the antenna on the top? Has air too.

I noticed that it had air. Just didn't see the antenna.

Years ago my tractor was a 861 Ford. Bought a heat houser at a farm sale with a top and rear curtain. It worked pretty darned good. Especially when compared to sitting on an open station.

Use what ya got, right!!!

This Winter we've had below average temps. But the snow hasn't been too bad. When you guys have a snowy Winter, we usually do pretty good. Those storms all gather speed and moisture over us and then dump on you.

You might keep an eye out this summer for some "serious" ice (studded) chains for the front. I put my 102" (Snow Wolf) blade on my 5 ton tractor and when angling the blade in deep or medium to wet snow, pushed the front end away from the plowing direction dramatically. There is too much distance (leverage) between the leading edge of an angled plow to the front tires, easily 7-8'. The pictured chains I have helped a lot but does not eliminate this issue. This push can be minimized by lifting the blade out of (loader arm) float position but this will require you to make a second pass for a clean scraping. But you'll love it esp. for stacking!:cool2:

They are ice magnets!!! A friend turned me on to them. I think they are Trygg brand. I've only had them for a month or so and am still like a kid with playing cards & clothespins on his bicycle spokes!
