About 6 years ago dad and I drove about 2 hours away to go look at a forage harvested advertised in good shape, and the few pictures looked good. Made arrangements to meet the guy at a certain time and he gave us directions. We found it and we're a bit early, so I didn't worry about him not being there yet. Here it was on a trailer parked in a ditch, and by the looks of it had been there all summer.
It had a flat tire, worn chains and belts, and just really want add it was represented. At this tone our was a good 1/2 hour after we agreed to meet, and he still wasn't there. I called him up, and he says he's on his way, but he's still an hour out! Asked me if we were going to take it, and I just laid it out for him. Said the machine was in no way field ready and needed more work than what we were trying to replace. He still asked, and I told him no, as we only came with my car to check it out, instead of showing up ready to pull it home. At that point he got upset with me and started complaining. I forget what I told him but we agreed to disagree and we drove home.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
