Let's face it. We here really don't do much if any tractoring. We mainly just sit here at computers and type stuff about tractoring that we learned from other website junkies who don't do any tractoring.
I mean, the proof is in the pudding: our tractor webmaster guru and leading tractor author doesn't even own a tractor.
So, let's chuck any remaining outdoor experiences and pretensions and go completely virtual.
One of you computer geeks should develop a TBN tractoring video game. Think of the benefits. No more going out into the sweltering heat and freezing cold. No more struggling with implements. No more damaged equipment and accidents. No more expenses after the initial purchase price of the video game.
I recommend we have modules on purchasing and operating. Defaults for obnoxious John Deere dealers. Allow people to configure their dream tractor and have 360 degree rotating views of it. Have perspectives from the tractor seat position showing hills and swamps and toys on the lawn. Require evasive maneuvers.
As hardware adjuncts, we could sell computer chairs shaped like tractor seats and computer joysticks shaped like FEL joysticks. The seats of course should be hydraulically connected to the game environment, so we can simulate a front wheel dipping into a gully or even a tipover.
We would of course continue our TBN chats, just as we do now, discussing our make-believe tractor experiences, just as we do now.
Computer geeks and virtual tractorers, use your imaginations. Free us from the 5/16" Labonville chains that shackle us to the virgin hooks on our unused FELs.
