First of all your just a motor head! Anyone who
talks like you do loves motors. I'm the same way.
I only got into tractors in the last three months.
There is a lake around where I live that has gone
down immensly in the last year. People boat on
this lake a lot in the summer. Because the lake
is so low there is only one or two spots to
launch a boat. People who live around the
lake use there tractors to launch there boats
where there is no ramp. Thus the need for a
tractor. I saw a fellow who had a very nice Farmall H. He used it strickly to put the boat
in and out of the water and to get people unstuck. I need to do the same.
I have become very interested in the Farmalls.
I had a uncle who had two, years ago. He still
has one that sits around rusting away.
As I have watched this site I have noticed that
Farmalls are quite desireable. THey seem to come and go very quickly on the site when for sale.
I am amazed how many Deeres there are. Problably half of the tractors list for sale are Deeres.
I think your right about the market being at the
top of its climb. I don't know how long it will last. That will depend on peoples perception
of whats going on in the economy and how much
desposeable income they have.
I would be interest to see how many of these tractors sold on this site are actualy used to do farm work, tractor pulling or just show. I think that would give you a better idea of why people are buying them.

When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
