You know you’re a tractor man if:
1. You refer to youthful backseat activities as “grappling”!
2. You have the impression the family car dash is missing an instrument because it doesn’t register PTO rpm!
3. Your buddy has a black powder rifle and you refer to it as an FEL!
4. When a party requires that you bring your own “joy juice”…you show up with a bucket of hydraulic fluid!
5. You’ve always dreamed of meeting a girl with a twenty inch neck who could weld and whose father owns a tractor dealership!
6. Your house got air conditioning five years after it was installed in the tractor barn!
7. You fall asleep at night dreaming about having your own 1950’s style service station diesel fuel pump complete with lighted globe!
8. When friends telephone… your significant other usually tells them you are out “playing dirt”!
9. When skidding on wet roads in the family car you keep looking for that “second” brake pedal to correct the situation!
10. You felt that buying a new backhoe attachment to dig a single ten foot long ditch was a perfectly justifiable purchase!
Can anyone think of some additional traits that might identify a “tractor man”?
