You shall be reported immediately to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Tractors for prosecution at their earliest convenience. Expect to receive the summons in the e mail...

It's all I got and its always seems willing and ready to go. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Then ther's my poor old body that seems to get pushed over the limit on a regular basis. It does complain. Sore shoulder last night kept me awake. Been doing a chip coat seal on the driveway and handling a logs that weigh a touch more than me.

Now that I've bought the tractor of my dreams I come to this forum even more often. Looking for problems with my brand and model. I'm grateful when people list their problems. Each time I read about a problem that hasn't happened to me I go out and check my tractor to see if I can prevent it from occurring.
I wish to thank everyone for providing myself and a lot of other TBN'ers with the info to prevent a lot of problems before they occur. plus if a problem does occur I can come here for answers and advice. What a great place.... and it's all FREE!!!!
I'm sure nobody laughs at someone else's problems regardless of tractor brand. I'm sure they are happy if they can help.
I sincerely hope this forum goes on as long as I have tractors!!!!
