The first tractor I ever bought is a 1955 John Deere 60. It gets some work, like pulling empty gravity boxes to the field, running auger, and pulling a 10ish foot RWA disk, but is mostly retired from the "real" work
My second tractor is a 4010 diesel that turned out to be either a lemon or just VERY tired. I got four times what it's worth in it. Only thing I haven't had worked on is the tranny (fingers crossed)
My third tractor is an early open station 4430. It isn't *mine*, but came with the farm to use until I don't need it anymore - thanks, FIL. I treat it like it's mine - new rubber on rear, regular maintenance.
My fourth tractor is a 2040 with 521 loader. It's only half owned by me. My FIL bought it a couple years back with major issues. I fixed it up and we trade it back and forth - he gets it for winter snow removal and I get it for summer fence work.
I had my grandpa's 3020 for a while, but then dad took it back. I hope to take it back from him again soon.
I hope to get a bigger cab tractor this next year if finances will allow. My 4 year old really wants to ride, but momma don't like open station tractors.
So, what's the count???
2 outright, 2 halfway, and 2 in the pipes

You are probably used to the 12 volt Diehard, charged with 200 amp alternator of your 3/4 ton that always is ready and always starts. It's this type of experience that brings about the many queries we get for 12-volt conversion kits. Since only a few kits are available (we sell kits for the
