You Know You're A Tractor Nut When...

[OkieDave]

...you go to Google looking for a PTO generator, get the following hit, and spend several minutes wondering what school parent groups have to do with anything:

 

[oldnslo]

PTO = Parent Teachers Organization

This Connection would make sense

 

[OkieDave]

Yes, I got it eventually. It doesn't help that, down here, it's customarily called the PTA, not the PTO.

You Know You're A Tractor Nut When...

... You park the tractor in the garage with the ROPS folded down while the family car sits exposed in the driveway.

... You spend several hours reading a two year old thread on the forum because someone bumped it to the top and you hadn't read it till now.

... You can name every brand of tractor by it's color but can't tell a Honda from a Hyundai.

... When someone says something about going off-road, you automatically think it includes buying off-road diesel for the tractor.

You go ask your next door neighbor if there is anything they need done and point out a few things that you could do with your tractor.
Pray for rain so the grass will grow so you can have some mowing fun on the tractor.
Pray that it doesnt rain so much that you cant use your tractor.
Trim all the limbs on your trees up 12 feet high so they dont hit your tractor.

You wake up at 4:30 am in the morning (without the alarm going off) because you know you're about to head to the hunt club shortly after daybreak to start putting in food plots on a beautiful, August morning! Yes, I did that last weekend. Friday and Saturday mornings!


You constantly scan the Farm & Garden section on CL looking for that next great deal on an attachment you don't already have!!


You wash your tractor more than you wash your 4x4 truck. Ok, I don't really do this, but I am sure some of you do!!

You constantly read the "Customization" and "Build it Yourself" forums looking for the next cool way to modify your tractor!

You ride your tractor to check the the mail on Saturday mornings when you can't think of anything else you need to do with it.

When you use your Backhoe to dig a hole just to fill it up and call it practice.

 

[Martian]

When your not outside using your tractor, your inside, on your computer, talking to other guys doing the same thing, just dreaming about using their tractor and to pass the time, they small talk, about their tractors and using them, and what they did when they used it last and what they want to do next

I'm almost positive that includes everyone on this site!

When you ride around your property on your tractor just to drive it.

When you ride around your property on your tractor just to drive it.

When you give your four-year-old a ride around your property on your tractor just because you both want to ride on it!

Yes sir, i do that with my five year old grandson.

Drive 200 feet down the hill to see if there are any apples this year, just so you don't break a sweat climbing back up the hill.

 

[mikehaugen]

when you have to hope that nobody cares when you make a pass mowing alongside the road (on property that isn't yours) so the weeds don't rub the car and because there is nothing else to mow.

When the wife threatens to leave unless you sell a tractor and you immediately think about which tractor you can put in her parking space.

That about covers it, I'm busted. Only point that I can add is that I'm tractor shopping every time I take a road trip, ... or for that matter, every time I leave the driveway.

still trying to find a website. link that compares tractor features model by model, side by side
