Alot of words such as envy, and jealousy being thrown out on the table here. To me, that's not what its about. Definitely not my point.
Do I admire someone who can buy a tractor such as this one, and add it to thier collection? And have enough money to do so? To answer that honestly. I would have to say, Yes, I do.
Truth is, if this tractor would of brought just 135k dollars more, it would of trippled the previous record set in 2019 stated by the poster of the thread. At 1.47 million (what it sold for), another 135k wouldn't of been all that much. And it would of in fact, tripled the record set just three years ago.
Surpassing the previous record set only three years ago, by nearly three times as much, is a ridiculous price, if you ask me. And no, I don't think in saying so, it's a case of poor guy just being envious of rich guy.
For what it's worth, even if I had the money to of bought this thing, I probably wouldn't of been a buyer at the opening bid (not knowing what that was, but assuming it was higher than I would of paid). I say this, because my desire would of lead me away from this, to buy a steam engine. So, no, my comments are not derived from envy, and wishing it was mine.

As with many things there are often several right answers and a few wrong ones. Some purist I'm sure will disagree to no end with what I will tell you but most of us out here in the real world don't really care do we ? Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
