I recall in a TV commercial a few years ago an M Farmall was heading out to a field pulling a 28' tandem disc. The disc was raised with the wings folded.
The M is a good old workhorse, but lets get real.
What always amuses me, also, is the fact that so-called journalists who write the captions (cutlines in trade lingo) under pictures in a newspaper haven't a clue as to what the picture really is, and misidentify everything from vintage vehicles to farm machinery, etc. And they make the same mistakes over and over and over.
One of my favorites is when there has been a train wreck, bridge collapse, etc., and a photo of the cleanup is run in a newspaper, the cutline ALWAYS begins "Workmen using blow torches.......). The cutline writers are completely oblivious to the fact that a blow torch is a now long obsolete, cantankerous device used to heat soldering irons before the advent of electric soldering irons, and that what the men are actually using are acetylene cutting torches.
Having worked in the newspaper and printing industry myself more years ago than I care to admit to, I just love to write letter to editors pointing out these errors of fact. Of course I never get a response.
