This guy wanted to try and see if a larger tractor would pull his boat up and out of the water on a steep hill. Our salesmen (not me) loaded the tractor on a barge and took it out to this island. You can see the cooling towers from three mile island in the background. Pretty funny, can't say we've ever had to take a tractor out on a barge for a demo before.

Ok I'll bite .....

Did he have to bring the tractor back? Or did the guy buy it :)

I worked at a nuclear facility for 27 years, and I'm not sure I'd like to live with TMI as the view of the landscape...

Pretty tractor, though!

He needed it proven that a Grand L would pull a small pontoon boat up a concrete ramp? A small B series would pull that boat out.

You sure to go to great lengths to make a (potential) customer happy. I KNOW what my local Kubota dealer would have said if i asked for the same !

Well done, that is a salesman that doesn't mind taking some effort to get the sale!
