Ruby Red Posted October 26, 2016 Author Share Posted October 26, 2016 Dull day, no sunshine, looks like winter is coming - so we picked the last row with the 404 on 1PR picker and flare box. Good to feed the squirrels and birds this winter, - sure would like to go back 40 years, put the heat houser on to the tractor and pick all week and fill the corn crib Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M turbo Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Would you be interested in hooking that 606 up to my #82 pull type next summer in Ridgetown to harvest some wheat? I going to pull a picker with probably an H, maybe the M..have lots of time to figure that out. I don't think your too far away and might want to play.

north of 60 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Really enjoy seeing your equipment in the field working ! I remember well the first time I drove a 91 IHC combine at a pretty young age. I was trying to negotiate a curve in the road to the field where we were going to start combining. I ended up doing a 360 right in the middle of the road. We had a couple of 151 combines after that, and later on a 403 and a 503. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
