johnnymag3 2,558 #1 Posted May 29, 2020 Ok, so what did your Horse tug today, or pull out of the ground.....or tow something it shouldn't have. We all know these machines are incredible and durable. So in a word or two, show us or tell us what your 30 or 50 year old tractor did today to make you say.....why did they stop making these tractors ? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnnymag3 2,558 #2 Posted May 29, 2020 You may add anything you like about the stamped steel, beer can Tractors made and bought today....Oh, and then buy again in 2 years.....and then again in another two years....Can you believe they cost as much as a Wheel Horse back in the day ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 69,697 #3 Posted May 29, 2020 We haul 1000 pounds on a regular basis with the Cinnamon Horse. Loads and loads of wood that are anywhere from 400 to 600 pounds. Here it is helping to clear the land for the horse stable last year. Note.... ZERO hesitation even at low idle. 6 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnnymag3 2,558 #9 Posted May 29, 2020 People that have never had a Horse ...really don't get it. These Tractors are way beyond, and way ahead of the time of all of us. I never really knew what one was until 1969 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But figured WTH let's try it anyhooo. I didn't mean to leave it low idle either. I just forgot to hit the gas. Duug duug. Duug duug. Duug duug. And before I knew it the tree was out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 63,508 #15 Posted May 29, 2020 Here’s a tug or two from Jane. The Couch. We were looking for a comfy spot to enjoy the drive by tractor show. The Splitter. It’s a heavy monster and that’s when I realized Jane don’t mess around. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

troutbum70 857 #20 Posted May 29, 2020 I wish I had a picture of my dad on my 417 pulling my semi back into my driveway. It was just the tractor, but it was not running and a slight up hill grade. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
