  1. Must push pretty well, since the blade has a bit of a "smiley face"
  2. My first car was a 72 Citroen DS21 Pallas with that manual trans that I bought in 78. After that also had a 76 F150 with a 3 on the tree. Had manuals in IH light line, MG's, Mazda, Toyota, Isuzu. Currently have 88 Nissan pickup, 08 Chevy Aveo5, 89 Toyota Camry wagon and 88 S1600 IH with manual trans. I just saw on GovDeals, a 2003 2500HD, 6.0, long bed extra cab, 4x4 with a 5 speed manual trans and 127K miles sell for $9000. So, I would say they are still popular.
  3. Loegering is the old time company that makes the track and chain systems for wheeled skid steers https://www.loegering.com/tracksystems.html
  4. https://tirechain.com/12-16-5-reinforced-european-style-net-tire-chains-priced-per-pair-set-of-2/ These are similar to what I have, but you have to drive them on. They don't sell mine any more, so they may not be worth a darn, or they didn't sell a lot. I've put them on, but never actually used them. If it's that bad, I'm going to be on the 4x4 tractor most likely anyways.

  6. I bought a set for my Bobcat 873, but have never used them. They are the basket style from tirechain.com. I figured on putting them in the back as it seems like the turning action would try to scrub them off the front. Maybe that isn't a big deal for the ladder type chains. These can be put on without jacking the machine up or running over them.
  7. I'm no expert, but my understanding is that the track pads made for snow have a hole over the sprocket tooth to keep that from happening.
  8. I just paid $500 to have my tractor hauled 70 miles, because the transmission went out in my truck. That was by far the cheapest quote of the 3 companies I called. Would have been $100 in fuel if I had been able to do it, so well worth it to me. I can't see a 400 mile haul being less than thousands, fuel being 4-500 of that.
  9. My wife used to complain about my dirty mechanic clothes in the washer............until I caught her putting horse blankets and saddle pads in there.
  10. I've got a 2355 with just a regular gear transmission for a total of 8 forward and 4 reverse. Mine was made in Germany
  11. If he can afford to drive that car frequently, I'm sure the no front plate ticket doesn't mean a lot.
  12. From what I can find, there are only 4 sizes, all 12" https://www.carlstar.com/our-products/product-detail/versa-turf/
  13. I see that Husky has thoroughly ingratiated his way into your family.🤣
  14. What are those tires? I'd like to see if they have them in 29x12:00x15
  15. I'm surprised that with the pink and blue project you have, there is time for any others😃
  16. BMW = Bust my wallet
  17. I should call my other place the”sunset house” because this happens everyday right out the front door
  18. She has been a landlord for a very long time, and served eviction papers as soon as she was made aware😀 The chair on the right is mine, and the rules are a little more slack.😉
  19. I saw this on Craigslist and thought you all might like to see it. Warning, may cause offence to those who like them clean and original. Unique 1982 International Cub Cadet 982 that has been modified with fenders from a later model, gas tank under seat, Kohler Command 18hp engine, power steering, joystick control for hydraulic 54" snow plow that has hydraulic lift and angle, nice Versa turf tires filled with fluid and 2 sets of wheel weights, trailer hitch, LED lights that are great at night
  20. This is my wife’s chair which he definitely knows he isn’t allowed in
  21. This is the "OMG that's crazy" thread after all.
  22. Sold for $4900😲
  23. I know there are probably a bunch of reasons not to do it, but I have an old metal box of 7018's that a friend of mine gave me years ago because he said they had gotten wet. When I need them, I just lay a few on the welding bench and run the acetylene torch over them until they turn white again. They seem to burn fine after that.
  24. We don't have many chain restaurants left here, but there is a lot of good food to be had if your pockets are deep enough. Best breakfast is from about 5 different gas station/ convenience stores. Pretty much any direction I start out in, there is a place to grab a really good breakfast....... but it's going to be 10$. So, it's only the weekends for me.
  25. All those good drag anchors going to waste😀 Around here we use them for drift fishing in the river on a flat bottom jon boat. It's enough to slow you down, but they usually don't hang up and stop the boat altogether.
