TOPIC: new toy

i'am going to try this, and hope the pic's work. i stated a couple of months ago that i was getting a new toy, and i took delievery of it today. thanks to my wife, alot. and this is why i did not spend much on boats this summer. but we get alot of snow up here and i wanted a new tractor so when i retire i'll have somthing that will be around with out troubles. the ford is the one i had, 55hp with a 9 foot snow blower. the john deere is a 33 hp, with a 6 ft blower, but is 4 wheel drive. sure is nice. by the way , iam the big guy and the little guy is my grandson. just so you know i hate snow , now snow is going to hate me. lol. thanks for letting me brag. frog.

Nice, but where do you put the outboard??

Beats my Craftsman 28" walk behind.

Now those are some Man Toys!!!!!!!!!!!! Well done my friend.

frog ,very,very cool,what ya going to do with the old one?,john,p.s. hes a cute little fella.

very nice tractors. how in the heXX me, a city boy got so tied up in tractors is beyond me. i personally like the old iron wheel tractors and the crawlers.

Andgott, the outboards go in the bucket,which is in the barn for now. i have a bad back and can not lift anything heavy, so the bucket is it. Elgindave,nothing wrong with a walk behind if it gets the job done. i have 1/4 mile drive way to plow so i need volume. Waterwings,yes i'am waiting for snow, cab has heat and air cond. and sure is more fun to drive then the old ford. John. i traded the ford in on the j.d. i got enought for it to pay for the blower and center mount p t o. thanks i think he looks like me. lol. poor little guy. lol. lol. Vuyosevich, you took an interest in tractors just like you did in boats, plus you do not need a big shed to keep them in. thanks for all your replies, i am thinking of naming it little frog, or maybe havihg a naming contest. so long for now. frog.

name it "deer john",i get dear john letters in the mail everyday,lol,lol.

i have a big wrench that i painted green and wrote john deere on one side, to fix tractors . and on the other side i wrote dear john, that is to use in getting the big D. lol

Blow some of that snow down to North Florida!!!

Love the John Deere. Grew up on a big 'un back in the 50s. Plowed a bunch with that one on Florida farms.

Here is the one I am restoring. It is a tad unusual.

R L , i would like to see your project, but all i get is a little box with a red x in it. when i click on it my screen goes blank. what am i doing wrong? plus all of your pics of boats in your other posts do the same thing. thanks frog

I see all the pics from everyone. Maybe ask in Support. Anyone else having this problem? It is actually a photoshopped backhoe with no wheels & tires but with 4 hoes supporting it.

thanks, i'll check into it. frog
