How come you younger guys get to have all the fun? :>(

Naa, I just get tired of working on old stuff all the time. I run a business in town as well as farm on the side. The business keeps me 50-60 hrs a week and when I finally get time to farm I don't have time for stuff to be breaking. The last old tractor I farmed with was a 74' Oliver 1955. I had to work on it all winter to keep it running all summer. I had three times more money tied up in it than what it would sell for, and it still needed a hydraulic pump, three tires and was not far away from needing an engine overhaul. I like old tractors to tinker on and put around with for fun when I have the time. But when I need something to work, I need it to work, not break. That's why for serious farm work I got that new orange one.
