Vegetion doesnt give anything away, ever heard of something called depth of field? Who knows but I put 20 down that its real, its just a small grey market 70's80's ride on. Its detailed, the axle movement is correct, and it looks to be a yellow pull strap wrapped around the hitch area. The vegetation rearward could be large bramble or such. You can see the weeds shiny side where they were knocked during the roll, still kinda fishy on a first post with no response. Who knows.
When reading the post close to when this thread started my first impression was that it was fake. But I took a closer look and thought "no..it's real". Then the discussion got going and I was convinced it was fake again--until asenix2001's post. He made good points about the wheel details and I thought the vertical black thing (turned out to be a hydraulic control) made it look real again. Either that, or it was a great fake and the poster should seriously consider applying for jobs in movie special effects.
Anyhow, it was entertaining and I'm glad it worked out fine. Looks like a tough little tractor similar to my previous L245 DT.
