JCM 9,168 #1 Posted March 12, 2023 This might be tough for those that have a large collection, but post up 2 of your favorite and why. The 520-H in deep snow with a 44'' 2 stage is my favorite picture. That was the most snow that I have ever had to clean up here in Maine since we moved here in 2008 and was very impressed how it handled that storm. This year I had no machines ready to do snow removal, but I believe the snow totals so far this year surpassed that.The 420-LSE next to the brook just looking relaxed sitting there with water flowing by is another favorite. Thanks All. 7 8 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,902 #9 Posted March 12, 2023 These are the same image, obviously. Mrs. P has an awesome picture taking phone and she did an amazing job editing it. We had an impromptu family photo that day, with her dad’s side of the family. It all started with tractor rides with Unc. That’s me. It ended with snowball fights, snowman making, snow angles, and all that jazz. In my opinion, this could be on the cover of Time magazine. It kind of screams urban family life. A family worker like @PeacemakerJack’s Iron a horse 875, kids playing after the work is done, etc. I am pretty sure there are three generations in the background and for an unsuspecting picture looker, the classic lines of the Pond Ride Away Sr. tell them it could have been there since grandpa was a kid. 3 13 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 62,902 #10 Posted March 12, 2023 My second favorite could very well be one of these. The girls learning to “drive” on a not so @SylvanLakeWH style train. The safety built in was the fact that Putt Putt with no engine was light enough in the front, that the tires could drag sideways if Rylee were to steer the wrong way. The red Craftsman in the background was forest green, but we had recently painted it red to be like Putt Putt, resulting in a family paint war, with Mrs. P, Jada, Rylee and I. The paint did not wash off well and we wore our “wounds” from battle for the next coming days, if not weeks. That is my little BIL Blaze, the Marine currently stationed overseas. The garage in a box was my storage, my workshop, my man cave. We had a two stall garage under the family room in the house, too short to house any of our vehicles. It reminds me of our beginnings as a young family, and the little adventures and joys in life we experienced on that 1.57 acres. 6 6 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tonytoro416 1,034 #16 Posted March 12, 2023 I don’t have any pictures of the tractor way back when but I have been on this tractor since I was 4 or 5 years. Doesn’t look like much in the first picture. Been through a fire. But we are getting closer to getting it back to how it’s supposed to be. This began garden tractor love for me 4 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Monstrosity 1,128 #19 Posted March 12, 2023 The 1277 is currently my favorite, mainly because I got it for my son to learn how to operate. He has yet to drive it himself but he's getting closer he's only 5. He learned how to disassemble as well as my daughter on this tractor. My second favorite right now is my C1054 Diesel project slowly its coming along. 7 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know that’s why I love this forum. Dad always makes the comment of not having a Kohler on this one so it won’t rattled all the bolts out of it lol. Says the Kohler is the Harley Davidson engine of garden tractors. Definitely some valid points lol 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
