One 1st was first time driving a Minnie-Moline and the second, at the same time, was driving a Fiat built tractor. Sorry didn't get any pictures. Too dark.

Used a friends, families G-350 MM (Fiat, Oliver 1265) for a church hayride. Growing up in Delaware we just didn't have many MM's around. Maybe only seen a couple. Here in north central Indiana there are quite a few.

LIttle bugger did pretty well lugging on the hills. About as good as my Case 800 but it probably weights 1/2 as much. (800 is 250 miles away).
 
I hear what you're saying, INCase, but will (pleasantly) beg to differ- You've driven a Fiat-based tractor, but even though it had Moline badges, you haven't driven a Moline. Don't get me wrong- the Fiats are a sweet rig, and I wish I had one- but in operating characteristics,they are about as far from the long stroke, luggin' and chuggin' Molines as you can get.
 
No, I agree. It was the 1st MM badged tractor I'd driven.

It is definitely not an Oliver or MM or Cockshut or White or whatever other color they made/painted them. I've heard the MM badged fiats are kinda rare...which is why this friends family has it and a G-450. haven't seen a ton of green ones either but more than yellow....
