I can see your problem from here, never park all of them together, if you keep them strung out all over the place, the females just think you have one red tractor and you keep moving it around! (I think I have 10 now)

Nice toys. I started my boy at the age of 4 on a TD-6 with a dozier blade on it and created a monster. As for to many toys well if that is all you have you better hurry up because I have at least 30 tractor on the place and if I include my partners then it would be more like 40. He owns some I own some and we own some. I also play with 2 wheel toys which also created a monster with the boy who is in Africa doing his for god and country in the U.S. Navy

WOpp, NO! Ask your wife "Can A Girl Have Too Many Diamonds?????"
I think Not, After you get her a nice pair if diamond earrings... I will bet she says nothing!
You may have to cough up some shiny bangles from time to time, not every time though. Food for thought.
Later,

I don't understand....There's only four?!?

Is four pairs of shoes enough? Four cooking utensils?

It's not your fault that your tools are physically larger just to get the job done.

The guys have pretty well summed up the situation. Rather than start out buying "bling", I'd paint her name on one and see how far that goes !!! I really like the "parking" solutionn - spread those puppies out. Craig

They are investments.You can usually recoup most of your money.Try to say that about a car or worse yet a boat.

You can never have too many toys! I'm sure your bride has lots of toys... horses, diamonds, etc.

What models of crawlers do you have there? I'd love to have one to play with, someday I'll get on hopefully.

Not really toys, therapy to keep oneself happy. There are a lot worse we could do. I just tell my wife my hobby could be 5' 4" and blond and she leaves me alone. Allan.

Hi WOpp,

Yes! You have (1) be many and need to sell me one. I am a master gardener and have all these rocks and boulders in and around my garden that need to be removed. I would need one with a good strong bucket on the front.

Now that's funny Allen. They say marriage is 50/50. The Husband tells his Wife how it is, and the Wife tells her Husband where to go.

I have always been told that 1 is too many and 100 is not enough. I have to agree on the first part but don't have the 100 yet to say on the second part. But I am going to find out. lol

You have to keep her involved in the toys and you'll never have to many. Just don't let her see the check book. LOL

Get your wife interested in [u:88096828cf]quilting[/u:88096828cf] and she can't complain about your hobbies. I can guarantee I don't have nearly the $$$ in my hobbies as she does. I know she has about $8K in sewing machines and probably $50K in material... that's her figures, not mine. I don't say much 'cause she worked and draws a retirement just like I do, and we both have part time jobs to help support the hobbies.

My philosphy, a man cannot have too many tractors or too many guns. He can however have too many women trying to tell him otherwise. Nice tractors even if they are red. Dale

Click to expand...

I only have one IH tractor, one JD garden tractor and two Dixon mowers, but I also "collect" guns. Even with 40+ guns, range equipment, etc., I'm still not up with my wife's quilting stuff, plus her trips to quilting things, that I don't even ask what they cost :shock: .
