Mine sleeps in the barn. First pic is the tractor but the pic is to dark. Second pick is of the old tractor but you can see the barn much better.

Mine will move from the house garage to my new 44' x 64' shed along with the fifth wheel, 5 antique tractors and other stuff as soon as concrete is poured and doors are on.

I wanted to do doors this year but with an estimate of 6000 bucks for two 14 x 14 doors looks like next year!😝

I was hoping to do two garage doors this fall but with an estimate of $6000 for two 14 x 14 doors I think it will be next year

Usually in my attached garage, but for the last two years I've been building a plane in there so there is no room so it stays outside. Hoping the tractor can reclaim it's spot this spring! :)

Thank you for this great song, far better than CCR's version. ( and that one is not bad at all )

Old barn. However, it takes up a lot of space I need for access to other stuff so the first thing I do on arrival is to back it out of the barn. I'll leave it out all weekend and put it back in the barn Sunday afternoon.

Where does my tractor sleep? One of the worst places possible. Under the oak tree next to the house. I have to wash it all the time or it gets that grungy black mold on it.

The little tractor sleeps in the barn, when we got the 5083e it stayed in the barn until dad forgot to shut the door and broke it off while putting it to bed. $400 later we decided the cab doesn't go inside unless it's getting hay or equipment so it sleeps closest to the house.IMG_0737.jpgIMG_0171.jpg

It's always inside an unheated steel building. Electric is available, so if we have sub zero temps I just go out and plug it in for an hour before starting. If snow and very cold temps are predicted I plug it in at night and it's ready to roll in the morning.
It'll always start regardless of being plugged in, but why not have oil & antifreeze warmed up if that option is available to me? It's easier on the machine and the cab heater will be warm a little sooner for me.

In the shed on the side of the shop that was built three years ago.

Here, many more have a 2 or 3 car garage attached to their house and still leave their $50-60,000 car/trucks in the driveway because there's no space in the garage. It's full of trash cans and aluminum lawn furniture. Or because it's too much work to open the door, even with an electric opener. I know people who have said that.

I just don't understand people I guess.

As I look out the livingroom window, I see this very thing-vehicles parked on the driveway as people have too much "stuff" in their garages to get their vehicle inside (it's -27*C and we have 6" of snow). Both in town and at the farm, everything is parked inside heated-temperature set at 5*C-garages.
