Hey all,
I was planting corn this spring and my 4 year old boy REALLLLLLLLYY wants to ride with me on the tractor. I have a 60, a 4010, and an open station 4430. half a 2040. (I also have my grandpa's 3020, but that will never be disfigured by a cab.) I let him ride on my lap for a short round, but it is hard to keep hold of him and do what needs to be done on the tractor.
I have spent several hours in those miserable, loud, uncomfortable, hot boxes when working for a neighbor. However, I simply can't afford to trade in or buy another tractor right now. One that was particularly loud was a Hiniker on a turboed piped 4020. The other was particularly uncomfortable was a Year-A-Round on a 3020 loader tractor. I liked the look of the Hiniker better and figure most of the loud came from the piped 4020 screaming full throttle while plowing and chopping. My 4010 is my "light" tractor that does everything but the heavy work. It spends a lot of time on a front mount cultivator. That should cure (or at least lessen) the "loud" part, but it won't solve the "hot" part. The 3020 is a very recent addition and it may spend a lot of time on the cultivator instead. I just think the 4010 is the best candidate for the cab.
Would I hate the Hiniker as much as I think I would? Is there a better make and model that I should be looking for? I'd sure like to let my boy ride along safely...

Today's Featured Article - Search For Spares - by Anthony West (UK). Following on from the aquisition of the old Fordson F, I was very much in need of spares. As a novice though I didn't appreciate the fact that there were so many Fordson tractors made, that all the other makes seem rare by comparison. As far as I was aware a fordson was a fordson and it was only through trial an
