Too many people think that everybody else is just waiting around in case they need something. Twenty some years ago, someone came knocking on our door at about 8 am on a Sunday morning. They went in the ditch and needed a tow. I went outside and the guy told me that another neighbor had told him that his tractor was broke. I took our tractor to go pull him and his friends out. The car was an old POS without even a hood and couldn't get traction on the wet grass. This was in the summer. I knew there was nothing wrong with the neighbors tractor. I pulled them out and wanted to push them back in, when the guy said, "I'd offer you something but spent all my money on last night at the bar. Then they just took off. It really depends on who needs a tow. We had a guy hit the ditch behind our subdivision because he was quite impaired and the neighbor wouldn't pull him out because he was drunk. Half an hour later a tow truck showed up. 5 minutes later the tow truck left. All night long every 5 or 10 minutes you'd hear the guy spinning his tires like an idiot trying to get out. My neighbor finally went and pulled him out after he figured he sobered up a bit. If someone hit the ditch because they were impaired, that's the best place for them and I'm not going to pull them out. The guys I pulled out weren't drunk, just cheap. Dave

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. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
