What's a picture? I've never seen your picture. I wasn't the one being insulting, you were. But I checked that off as being from someone uninformed about me, my knowledge or abilities. In other words someone who is ignorant. Seeing as yer offering and you now darn well no one is going to drive over a thousand miles to meet you over a beef on here. So who's childish here?
For a picture, well most of the time I'm on the wrong side of the camera. As ugly as I am that may be a good thing. But here you go, best I could find fast.
Now gee didn't a picture make all the difference in the world? It doesn't tell you my abilities at all. It doesn't tell you if I'm a fighter or a lover. All it tells you is I look scruffy and have grey hair. Will it help for you to know that I'm 6'5" and 250 pounds? No cause I wouldn't bother driving across the street to meet you much less driving clear out to WA
So ok, you have brand loyalty to a defunct company that IMO made substandard products. Lot of other folks did/do too. That's reflected in sales when AC was still making tractors and today with what they sell for. You put a 185 or 190 on the block next to a similar condition JD or IH of the same size/age and the IH and JD will bring at least 3 times the money. So I'm not the only one who doesn't think much of them. But do I tell you that you are stupid or unable to run something because you like them? No. Do I get insulting? No. So what if I try to warn people off of them? Tell me you want a show tractor and you want to do a 190 or 185 and heck I'll help you. Try telling me what a great tractor they are for work today and I'll call you on it every time.
