  1. Congrats Os fans.  Last 2 years has been fun to watch a team that has been bad and neglected for years finally see some success.  I'm typically a Yankees fan but y'all have me pulling for you because of the rags to riches story.

    Well... I was doing a really slow uturn in a driveway down the road and there was a nice gate that was open. No problem except I bumped the steel gate by the lower hinge on the post and it ripped out like tinfoil. Lol. I mean I barely felt it. Hahaha

    Farmers insurance <insert music here>

    Lol. It was a major upgrade from the previous... ummm...unwalled hole in ground. Zero to hero. I was called the "#1 of #2s" during the inaugural weekend. :tomato:

    I was going to buy newer/smaller tractor but the emissions and electronics are a nightmare. Smartest thing I've done since randomly buying 25 acres of forest is buying that Massey tractor. Spent its whole life running hay bales around just 30 miles from where it's parked. Well cared for. Cost me 5 grand... newer tractors anywhere close to that power is 25k or more lol. I'll be under 9k all in for full mechanical restore and a machine that will rarely stop for any reason for 50 years. It weighs more than a honda accord. Don't bump into ANYTHING no matter how slow ur goin..... don't ask....

    Guy I know out in Warrenton has one but as he got older the desire for indoor plumbing won.  

     

    Is it a diesel?  Stuff from back then was BUILT.  Like they did stuff with cast iron and giant welds.  There wasn't minimal engineering to get the most with the least like stuff today.  I bet every part on that thing minus the spark plug weighs 25lbs.  Just be careful getting all the accessories you can run off the drive shaft.  lol

    I know I haven’t posted much lately so maybe I missed something… did some other sub-forums turn to no moderation as practice? The New England sub-forum reads as a “post anything you want.”

    It is my hope that our sub never gets like theirs. and our mods here do a pretty good job to keep it fun and on topic.
