Tractor Trivia Questions

For the last several years I have put together tractor trivia questions for our tractor club Christmas party. I have even used some of the questions that are in the game section on Yesterdays Tractor. The problem I am having is coming up with new ones and our party is this Saturday. I do not use extremely technical questions. If you would like to help me out just reply with a question or two and please include the answer. Any help would be appreciated.
 
The local radio station used to have a tractor question every day. I was pretty good at it.

FROM A TRACTOR TRIVIA SITE

From what Latin word was the word "tractor" derived?
Trahere "to pull".

What new, unique feature did the Fordson tractor have?
Used the engine block for the frame.
 
guess it depends on your audience and how tough you want to make them.

What was the first tractor to offer a PTO shaft? International Harvester Model 8-16
If that's too tough you could reword it a little to ask what commonly used option was introduced on the International Harvester Model 8-16 - or something to that effect.


you could do some famous names in the business:

Designer of look for the letter series John Deeres: Henry Dreyfus
for the letter series farmall: Raymond Loewy

a little tougher: The first names of mr. McCormick and mr. Deering: Cyrus McCormick, William Deering
 
My neighbor has one. Neat item once he got it un frozen! He actually resets it a little now and then to keep it free. Good question.
 
How about a machine from 1928 till the mid 80s? Most universal and very tough "tractor" made in Dunbar,WV. It is a Gravely. Yes it is a tractor because you have the power unit and can hook up over 35 different items to it. I have over 8 tools for my two machines. Not too far from me there is a guy who plants almost two acres every year and has a couple of Gravelys.
 
I think Allis Chalmers had the first tractor with rubber tires. The first tractor with narrow front - Farmall
Regular.
