I see by his boots that he's ready for mud season.;) Now, you need to buy him a trailer to haul all his stuff in. Nice looking boy for sure.:)

Thanks for the good words. He has a trailer, but likes to leave it behind because he found it makes a difference in the hills he can climb. I need to work on some traction for him, but don't want to overload the drives.

As for driver training, I'm a bit concerned on the tractor side of things considering this weekends new "learning experience" has been to put a ramp onto an empty pallet and jump, well, thunk, off the other side!

HD video to come soon!

What is the saying, if you pick up a cow everyday from the day it's born, you will be able to pick it up when it's grown? Well, we started my son with a toy tractor and worked up to a lawn mower, then this Yanmar. Well, we had some help with a pond scoop full of dirt off picture.

Gonna be a while before he graduates to Bigger Blue, but the JD140 may fit him in a few years. :)

And then there's the plans to convert his current rig to gas when he outgrows electric. (Mom rolls eyes)

Who needs a tractor when your boy can pull the plow himself?:D

Not sure if he qualifies as a "Munchkin". :laughing:

Not my tractor but one of the munchkins is mine.

It's amazing how quickly they get the grasp of what the round thing is for!

Same Munchkin at 1 year old. For some reason he prefers the newfangled tractor more than mine from when I was a few years younger....

I guess even the Deere toys are now plastic. My Deere pedal tractor was all metal but that was a year or two ago. My daughter has expressed very little interest in anything tractor related. Next week we should find out what #2 is. Maybe it will be tractor loving boy. Your munchkin looks like is he having a ball.

Now that is what a John Deere should look like. Wish my parents had kept my pedal tractor.

They do still sell them in metal, and they are still pedal powered. The electrics are all plastic.

And yes, he's having a ball!

We were at the local Farm Exhibition show today which had some blue, green and orange tractors. He climbed aboard the orange and immediately did what is shown in the photo. I guess without a cab he feels a little insecure! At 5 he knows more about tractors than I did his age and knows how to operate the loader!
