Crushed Cub Cadet

As frustrated as this has made me, I really can’t blame him. He was just trying to make a living and couldn’t afford to let them set in his yard in hopes that someone would come along and save them. He used to call me when he bought one, and I have rescued a couple of F-12’s and an F-20 from him. Now he is well enough off that he is starting to let tractors set now, choosing to recycle other machinery instead.

Maybe what we need is a federally funded program to save the Farmall’s. :>)

A few years back I traded something for a nice older lawn tractor. Don't remember the brand, but it was pretty good sized and had a dozer blade mounted on the front. I had this tractor sitting outside of our ranch shop waiting for the day I got around to getting it running. Well, my brother and the hired man were "cleaning up". They thought the lawn tractor needed to be up in our iron pile instead of there beside the shop where I put it. I can't figure if they tied a long rope to it and pulled it up there with nobody steering and rolled it a few times, or if they just grabbed it with the grapple-fork on the loader tractor. But one front wheel is bent clear back under it now, the steering wheel is bent down over the hood, and the seat's all bent up.

Too bad there's not a season on stupid people!
