I average 1100 miles per year on tractor rides, not nearly as many as Diesel Tech. I have two tractors that I use for rides. I bought a Farmall 300 for the reasons stated below. It’s a fairly common tractor, parts are readily available, it’s not a heavy tractor so trailering it is not a problem, it goes at least 16 mph which covers all the rides I’ve been on and the TA is great for starting, when you’re bunched up, going through a community, or when you need the extra torque on a hill (not very often). The second tractor I purchased for rides is an IH 454. This tractor is lower to the ground, is easy to load on a trailer, has a top speed of 19-20 mph and has a four speed synchronized shift in either high or low range. I would recommend two accessories for your tractor ride tractor, a buggy top umbrella (don’t get a single pole umbrella you’ll ruin it on a windy day) and a box of some sort to carry a tow strap, extra jacket, tools, and rain suit. Have fun! Wayne

While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
