City boy, mostly, though small town. Turned 15 and went to work at a hog confinement, with some cropland. At our unit, we had a small (20 hp?) AC 4WD with loader, blade, live hyd and PTO. Man, thought I was some kinda farmer. I'd do anything to drive it around, even in the worst weather, when all I could do was "pretend" to blade snow with that little 5' blade...

I've wished forever that I'd bought that little AC. It was a keeper. Bought my own 560 Farmall about 5 years ago and work it to death, just playing around. 50 acres and 5000 trees to mow around. Used it to backfill new foundation and have moved WAY too much dirt with that poor old girl.
