Grandson is studying wheels at preschool. He asked if I could bring a tractor to show. How could I say no.

The kids loved getting to sit in a tractor.

I think I enjoyed as much as them.

The son in laws don't pay me but they do fight over who gets to run it.

For years I had a MX200 on the tillage equipment. That the SIL's would run ahead of the planter.

I was running the 1086 on the planter.

I finally got tired of them getting the MX200 and me in the 1086 so I bought this mx240 last year for them to run on tillage and I put the MX200 on the planter.

Now I'm happy as well.

1086 to a MX 200 on the planter? That's one heck of a nice upgrade. I'm just wishing the wife will oK adding an air ride seat in my 1086 for a smoother ride. Damn thing is a killer on my lower back, and lower back pain put's a little speed bump in the wife servicing duties. Hope she falls for it

Not being critical, but you should have brought an old one too and talked about how it is a good thing to save them. Everyone complains about how hard it is to get the younger generation interested in preserving the old stuff. Take the chance when you get it. Bring the new one too. Just makes it that much cooler.

Repeat...not being critical.
