Next focus is going to be on getting the workshops moved around after the pole barn is done in a couple weeks. I have a feeling it won't be long before Trina starts attacking the 1045... attacking the 1045... I always like that model. You do not see many. Does it have white and black seat? It is kind of a lower rider with that seat. Edited October 20, 2022 by Retired Wrencher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is kind of a lower rider with that seat. This particular tractor has the wrong seat from a different brand. We do have a correct 1045 steel pan seat that is sitting on The Military Tribute Tractor. I'll have to wait and see what Trina has in mind as far as swapping seats and repainting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was after her for a year or two to get an 854 or similar. Nothing. I showed her @Rob J.'s 1045 and that clicked I guess.... Now we need to work on getting her a 953 because of @Sparky convincing her to take his own for a ride. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
19richie66 17,508 #31 Posted October 20, 2022 I sat on a roundhood and I felt like I was on a tricycle as a kid. They are neat machines but I need leg room 😁. I like the big wheel bunch. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

19richie66 17,508 #40 Posted October 20, 2022 I don’t fit well on them and to me, when you say round hood, I’m thinking RJ or suburban. My bad Mr. Lindberger. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Snoopy11 5,714 #43 Posted October 20, 2022 2 hours ago, ebinmaine said: I don't exactly appear "aesthetically pleasing" on the small tractors Says who? I will say, having various machines myself, the size differences in round hood machines (L-157 particularly) is much different than bigger models such as the 800 Special. I happen to like the size of the L-157 however, in this I probably differ from most Wheel Horse fanatics. My first Wheel Horse will always be my favorite. THEN... if you really want to experience size... buy a 718-Z... that machine is truly a dinosaur... raw power... and it let's you know... it is BIG...
