Welleverybody knows Infernal Combustion engines run better in the evening. ;-) (Gloaming, as we call it) &, of course, with the smaller tractors in the good old days, it took longer 2 get everything done, hence the longer hours. I have fond memories of plowing far into the night with the 8N trying 2 get the fields ready 4 planting. Took many hours 2 do wh@ a giant multi-bottom rig does in a few minits! & 2 this very day, I bush-hog @ night, 2 escape the HEAT & Sun of midsummer!!
