I bought my first a couple months ago. Keep telling the wife I need one for every attachment. I just get dirty looks.

Be careful planning this will be easy.

 

Wait for a day when you will need two things at once. Two implements. One implement, one trailer. Whatever.

Buy another tractor and set them up so you can go from using one thing to another without swapping.

 

After she jumps from one tractor to the other a few times you could mention something about being super efficient.

Stout little machine with the stack and blacked out rims.

I like that rear wheel/tyre combo! Is that a standard WH rim and what size tyre do run?

23x10.50-12

Thanks! I could make out "Tru power" on the side so knew they are Carlisle but could'nt see the size. I have 26x12.00-12 on my Murray to IH project, your tyres look way more square or flat than mine. Probably because of the height to width ratio of the tyre versus the width of the rim. Think i'll buy the 23x10.50-12 for my WH 512-D whenever I get to overhauling that machine.

Interesting topic.  I'll throw a couple in here.  I have a few sub-collections in my overall collection.

 

This is my "accidental collection"  Accidental because I never had any intention of owning any of the pewter colored GT series tractors... then in the matter of about 3 months managed to find and acquire three brothers from the 1984 line...

GT-1100 with Ark loader (and K341 repower),

GT-1600 with original Briggs twin

GT-1800 with original Briggs twin, 48" deck and power-flow bagger

the 1100 and 1800 are here to stay for a while, but the 1600 could be available if anyone is interested.

 

and this is my "Non-deck mower collection" 

a CBR-32 mounted on an RJ-58

a LMR-301 mounted on a Suburban 400

a Bachtold Front Mounted Weed mower on the 633. The Bachtold is NOS, camed from a closed dealer in Iowa. It's scratched and dinged from being mounted on tractors for display, but has never been run)

I've added a SMS-50 sickle bar to this too, but am still looking for mounting hardware to put it on my 953.

 

And this would be my "Wheel Horse Farm PTO collection"

PTO-66 belly mounted Farm PTO shown mounted on a 1968 Commando 6.

8-3211 Farm PTO shown mounted to a 1968 Raider 9 (which is currently repowered with a K181)

Still patiently waiting here Jim.  

 

The Amigo will be a nice addition to the Bantam, Swisher, Speedex and Garden Mark.

Like my "accidental"  C160 herd. 

The only one I was specifically looking to purchase was my first. Cinnamon Horse C160-8, 1974. 

I've now been gifted some and tripped over others. 

 

 

Excellent collection you have there! 

[OldWorkHorse 3,045]

1997 314-8, 1974 B-80 aka FlowahPowah and 1967 1257 aka 1257HEAVY. Have a few more but all taken apart so not as nice to look at right now ha.
