Many,many yrs back,late 50s,early 60s,there was an old illiterate bachelor tinkerer in my hometown,that had a small Deere(a trike H or M maybe)that ran on compressed air.Had two 100lb LP bottles mounted on each side of the engine horizontally and a totebox on the back for his "groceries".He had no drivers license and it was his transportation around the village.It was NOT LP powered.Just made a Pss-Pss-Pss-Pss sound.I was just a kid at the time.General thought was that ole Vern was "not right",but he could fix or figure out just about anything.No idea whatever happened to the Deere.He passed on in the late 70s.
