You guys for the most part are older. You should really watch some of these kids today. After many years around tanks I know we had 2 kinds of guys that got hurt on em during training or on firing ranges. The older guys who thought they knew it all and were over confident and young guys who didn't respect the equipment. I don't know very many city boys who moved to the country and got hurt on a tractor or rolled one. Most of the injuries and deaths I hear about are older guys who think they know it all and kids who have been driving tractors for a while and think they are God's gift. Son in laws brother who grew up on a farm, was in FFA is missing most of his right hand becasue he plugged up a corn picker and didn't shut it off before he stuck his hand in it. He'd been running machinery for years, was 18 when he did it. Nephew grew up on the farm and rolled 2 different tractors as a teen. He has grown into a very stable and mature young man. But as a teen he was cocky and thought he knew it all. 78 year old farmer that I knew rolled an H with a baler and hay rack behind it moving to another field while on a tar road. Closed casket. Friends dad missing his right arm, grew up on a farm, "combine accident" after his kids were adults. Another friends grand pa rolled a tractor on himself when my friend was 8 years old, had been a life long farmer. In fact every farmer I know who has died or had a serious injury in a farm accident with have been life long raised on the farm guys with one exception and that one gets injured falling off of ladders and dropping heavy items on his feet, not on his equipment.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
