As a sprayer operator who sprays quite a bit right on the edges of the Denver metro area I spend a lot of time driving down some heavy traveled roads (Tower Rd, 120th Ave, the field across from Cabelas on the north side, for instance). It is absolutely amazing how stupid people are around such a large wide bright red machine (mine is a Case). Just yesterday I was going down a narrow 2 lane road in a no passing zone when a nutjob lady kept trying to pass in her Lincoln. I signaled to turn left slowed way down got partway through my turn and she tried to pass. Luckily I was paying double attention to my mirror thinking she would try something this stupid. You will be amazed how fast I can come out of a sprayer and give a cussing lesson on how to drive and pay attention. This is by far my closest call. Last year two other machines were hit by vehicles and both those vehicles were found at fault. My machine has the red lights (brakes that you do not touch as its a hydro) and also has a set of led yellow lights that no one pays attention to.
Slow down around equipment....especially if you are out joyriding around anyways.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
