mabsoon 60 #1 Posted April 22, 2016 /looks up Wheel Horse on Craigslist... All I need is a pair of 23x10.5x12 turf tires ... And a tiller! ...And maybe that and that and this... "Well there's a set of tires, but they're cracked!" "There's a set of rims & a set of tires, I wonder if they will go together?" "Nope!!!" "Do you sill have the tires you posted 2 hours ago?" "No?!?" Drat!!!" Well, there's a tractor with a tiller. I wonder if they'll sell it separate?" "No? Next add!" Same thing different response. "You will separate? How much? $275 How much do you want for rhe tractor the blade and the tiller?" $300?" Looks like i just just bought my second Wheel Horse!!! Who knows, I might just keep it to use with the tiller! Oh, yeah, I told my wife I'd sell it! I think this might be a common theme around here!?! Hello, New member of Red Square! Thanks to Red Ranger for telling me about Red Square. And thanks to a couple others on C-List and on here for helpful advice. (Namely "Any questions on wheel horses, I love to help" & my New Albion friend Kent). Thought I'd say Hi and hopefully give you a laugh in he process! My tractor would love to be like this when it grows up! (See monster 8 wheeled 520H, begging forgiveness on using your tractor pic from North Central Meet & Greet 2013). The other pic is me on my new hobby!

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,314 #6 Posted April 22, 2016 Sounds about right I think you will find this is the best support group for your newfound addiction to . Believe me it doesn't take long for them to multiply. I acquired my first one about three months ago, the second one came along about two-three weeks ago, and now the habit has rubbed off on my wife...we are going on a road trip Sunday to pick up her first one LOL 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
