Model HTA ??

We tend to think we have it conquered, then all of a sudden someone new comes along and asks again. I heard gene bender was going to have a talk with the president, see if he wouldn't include this in his state of the union address. If he can acomplish that then I'll try and get to the prime minister here in Canada. That might cover it, but then who knows how many folks listen to those guys anymore.

I have no plans to ban old tractors... I'm totally lost here. <_<

(hoping you can take a little joke)

I do like gravy on my fries when I'm up there as well!

All in good fun, like Super Bowl commercials. ;o)

I know all about "eh", however it is a rather regional thing. I never heard folks using it where I lived in NS, and I never hear it around SW ON. I will agree though, it's used excessively some places. I've run across folks using that so badly I feel like giving them a kick.

And I don't like gravey on my fries. I figure if we can't enjoy this tractor thing, not much point in having them.

Keep the humor alive!

This particular Sun., dad didn't go to church, thus Charley was all alone in the pew behind Deacon Brown. Midway through the service Charley broke wind. Imediately, he jumped to his feet and yelled, "Hurrah for the Deacon."

Bear in mind, this happened before my time thus my only recollection was here say. How true the story is, I have no way of knowing. Could be that someone always fanticised this happening to Deacon Brown. I do know the Deacon was not particularly popular.

Well Hugh...it IS pretty cold in IA today.

The Super HTA did not and does not exist, nor will it ever. They took a Super H and a 300 and put them together.

Well, they did. They made ONE, presumably as a test mule for a possible T/A design. They tested it. They scrapped it. It no longer exists.

Anything you see that claims to be a Super HTA is a CUSTOM tractor, like a custom hotrod based on a '32 Ford, for example. It grinds my gears when some of these guys call it a "hoax." It's not a hoax.

Super HTAs are real running, driving tractors. They're just not production tractors. A hoax would be a photoshopped picture of an H made up to look like a Super HTA.

These guys have no problem with Boyd Coddington or Chip Foose chopping up a classic Ford or Chevy and turning it into something special, but when an old farmer puts H tins on a 300.... Jeez Louise, you'd think someone stole their lunch money!

Proves to me what a cop once told me. He stopped me doing 58 mph in a 50 mph zone. I hadn't been on this road since it had been downgraded from 60 to 50, roughly 3 months before. I pointed that out to him and told him there were no speed signs between where I turned on and here. He said, "Oh yes there is back by the park entrance." I said, " Sir that sign (same size as our speed signs) said it is illegal to throw garbage in the highway."He said, Mr. MacKay, I'm going to let you go, your someone who actually reads signs."

My point is if we had folks that actually read the forums, before they start typing, this question would rarely arise. When I came to YT, I read for 6 months before I typed anything. It also makes you wonder why Kim bothers to archive this discussion.

Ole Doc. gave it to me once for an infection, took it Sat and Sun. I did feel a bit unsteady, however on Mon morning I decided to do some plowing. When I got to tractor, I couldn't get in the cab. Went back to pickup and drove to Doc's office, he was in and saw me right away. Didn't want to let me drive home, said I was on the verge of a drug induced stroke. Finally he agreed as long as I map my route and stick to it on side roads. He was heading for hospital shortly behind me and would use same route. He had to drive by my door on route anyhow. He called at the house on his way, told me to drink lots and lie down for the day. That was 11 am. 5 pm on his way back he was back at the house, checked me over. Next morning he was back, checked me and gave me the OK.

I'm telling you I was one nervous lad for a spell, but I think poor ole Doc was more nervous than I. He actually stopped long enough to have dinner with us that first evening. I expect 3 pre teen children around the table with us made him think a bit about possible mal practice. Thankfully I came out of it with no adverse effects, and ole doc and I remained friends until he died. I often wish I could dig him up, I think he'd still be better than the quacks we have today.

Of course, this is all hypothetical, as I have never heard of a Super HTA seller making such claims.
