Cheapskate? Cheapskate? did you read that one Sam??? Or should we do the noble thing? Like the immortal words of Garfield the Cat... 'I resemble that remark'.... I have to admit, my fergies hold their ground better with a bit of weight, even a few gallons of what's left of a not quite drained tube... sloshing around in there the way it does..does help. The comments about soil can't be ruled out at all. Your fields worked up since possibly before Roman times, got to factor in. My dysfunctional gang of peasants curse me because of roots masses... the ground has only been worked again lately since maybe colonial times, it was an orchard from whenever till a hurricane flattened it, oaks came in- so there are recent fine haired roots, old rotten roots... musket balls and gin bottles... on and on.. I must remind my gang of barbarians that Asian soils have been worked every 4 months the last 5000 years, so of course there are no roots there.. Like 333 mentioned, most big Masseys hitched up with the same clevi pin from the wipple tree the horses used. Speed might be a factor? But not in my experience, ya either roll or ya spin... I am always in first low anyway... My old AC's were geared so high, and weighed so little for their horsepower, loaded tubes was a must for many jobs, even pulling a baler up an incline. Loaded tubes just have a different... feel? You can sense the difference with the seat of your pants...Yeah, the loaded fergies... just act like they took their flintstones' viamins that morning. Not always needed, but a noticeable boost... Possibly post war UK farmers couldn't afford the tax on nationalized homemade seawater...
