Power Trac is better than this John Deer

[BobRip]

We found a tractor on Route 14 in Wisconsin just west of Spring Green. I think my power trac is a much better machine.

I am not sure, but that thing seems like a fire hazard. He better have a good fire extinguisher onboard.

That thing was expensive to put together. The natural bales on the bottom cost $30 each. The green bales were $476.23 apiece

hmm, I am wondering if it is solid, or he just built it out of 2x4 and put panels with astroturf or hay glued to them.

It sure looks like real hay and nothing underneath (except those wheels look very perfect). You can see the string pulling in the hay.

That said, probably the farmer made this, but people do spend their money on strange things (PT's?) for no reason other than.....

Now that's a real haying tractor!

I get it... That's funny. Would be much less expensive if painted in Ford blue, but not by much!

This buy had a lot of other stuff there. It is a store. he has a big bug, an alien space ship, a halloween trail, goats, etc. The tractor is minor compared to the rest. It looks like years of putting this stuff together.

OK. Wisconsin, Virginia.... You take a vacation or something like that?

Jim Bird had some great fun with hay bales at his place in Forkland AL a while back.

Here's a link to some pics that have shown up on Flickr.com:

If PT would make a mini hay baler we could all entertain the neighbors

Fun.

O.K. That took me about 3 days to get, but now I got it. Man, am I slow!

All I can say, is I wish I had that hay contract, it is about three to six times the going rate.

We are spending 4 weeks driving across the country. This is our big post retirement trip. We went to Yellowstone yesterday.

Well Congrats on the retirement. I guess the wife said no to visiting any TBN Members on the way? Have a great trip, take some pix...

I gotta quit being subtle.

Most of us think that the real, secret-recipe John Deere green paint must cost somewhere over $800 a gallon...

real, secret-recipe John Deere green paint

I thought that was the stuff that came in the rattle can with the code word "Rustolium" on the side.

I have attached a few pictures of the place with the hay tractor. I should have visited some members.

We were out that way a few years ago. Really beautiful. There is a great museum in Cody, WY, too.
