Well, the comments are interesting! About 7/8 said not to do it, as it is too dangerous, and it's crazy. And of the 1/8 that said they have done it, most said they were younger then, and wouldn't do it now.
Most interesting is how many people did admit that have thought about doing it!
Lot's of creative ideas were suggested, like using a rope on the gearshift of the towed tractor to pull it out of gear after it starts, or to let the tow vehicle get stuck in soft ground both before and after the second vehicle is started, or the idea of a common reversing driveshaft between PTOs, or a belt to link them together, but the best (in my mind) was to use a stationary tow vehicle with a winch to pull the dead tractor towards the tow vehicle with a remote control to shut the winch off without leaving the seat.
In any case, thanks for the suggestions. No, I'm not a troll. But I do spend a lot of time going back and forth in the fields, and that gives me a lot of time to ponder different ways of getting things done.
I've heard of some newer vehicles which have remote start, I wonder if they also have remote kill....
