The good news is if he drove it DOWN a hill he managed to stop it.

Where did you pick this up and where are you taking it?  I hope not your yard😎

Not a fun thing to run, especially with a 12V71 green leaker sitting rite next to you. And with a 175 gallon hydraulic tank behind and under the pilot seat.

Get in the seat wearing a sub arctic suit because it is 5 degrees out. 25 minutes later you are in t shirt and shorts soaking wet from sweat with windows and door open.

That’s interesting that you mentioned that because my family started with horses and a wagon but later on they were telling me about side curtains and no heat and most of them were boozers ha ha and draining the radiators at night oil lamps for headlights. OK now I’m going way back.

And yes, TJ I did change the subject a bit all the same. I would like to drive that thing hell after little while I might not even wanna get out of it.
