Many times on this forum folks post the advantages of fluid filled tires. I finally bought one of those tire fluid filling adaptor thingies and went looking for some of Olds famous $.89 windshield washer fluid, but couldn't find any, so I filled those Ford 641 tires with water right out of the hose, to the top with the valve stems pointing up. Maybe this fall before it freezes I will find the antifreeze. Like the man said,'different tractor'. I live in the mountains and if I'm moving I'm going up hill or down hill. With the tires full of fluid the wheels don't spin with a bucket load going up hill and don't slide when going down hill. Don't spin the tires though, you're buried almost before you can get your foot on the clutch. Wife had to pull me out with the Dodge. What I'm really saying is thanks and even though to you big kids it's common place and common sense, keep those tid bits of good information coming.
