I posted to mars1952 post a little while ago and it got me to thinking(?), he has a nice list of implements in his profile, and a list of things he is going to acquire/build, but only 1 tractor. What is your implement to tractor ratio?


15 implements, 3 tractors,= 5:1**

Four tractors... implements? I need a pencil and paper and about an hour to walk and look around the place. Implements scattered everywhere... garage, machine shed, barn, yard...

Looks like about implements 13:1 tractor. Needs to be 12:1 because I should sell my one bottom plow.

Now that you mention it, I have a 5-2 ratio. Is that good or bad.

2 tractors, 8 implements. Unless extra BH buckets count as an extra implement. Then it's 2 and 9.

Implement to tractor ratio= 4 to 1
4 implements
1 tractor
I'm not counting the riding mower I use for trim work. After all, this is MAN-LAW!!

I would say that is great. A 1:1 would be good. Bad would be 0:0.

Do you consider a grapple and toothbar as implements or as an add on?

I would say implement, because they each perform a separate function. I would consider the FEL an implement, each bucket, forks, grapple, etc, a seperate item/implement.

What constitutes a tractor? I guess we could nit-pick this to death. Would a guy with a riding mower and a shovel have a 1:1 ratio? Let's not get carried away.

This is not a scientific poll--the TBN auditors are not going to kick you off the forum (at least I hope they don't) of you consider a grapple an implement and someone else doesn't.

I had to look outside to make sure, 9:1.

Count me in for 7:1 and growing.
8:1 if I count my canopy ;)

9:1

can i count my portable layer house that i pull around by hooking it to my boom pole with a chain?

I'll go with 5:1...on implement to tractor + FEL. Soon to be more ( pending mama's aproval.
I'll go with 3:1 on accessories. At this point, I don't know what to get next, another tractor, or more implements/accessories? Tough question, but no wrong answer :)

17 implements and two tractors. 8.5 to 1 ratio.

I'm in the lead on implements so far -- what do I win? I hope its a front blade for my 455, don't have one of those, yet! ;) Do I get bonus points for using both tractors at once?
