Folks with tractors, like everyone else need to let it all out from time to time. And to ignore a problem, can not, and will not make it go away. Things that are happening now, have never happened before, people are worried, and things may never be the same for some on this forum. New Orleans and the Gas price is serious to most here, but may be horse sh!t to others when money is no object. But soon, it will be serious to all. When you can't afford gasoline or diesel for your tractors, you can't afford the farm either. There are post every day on this forum that I have no idea what some are talking about. I don't ignore anyone, but I do look at the subject line, or I may even read the subject post, if it's not something I think I need to comment on, or have no business commenting on, or I can't help with, I cut a chogie to the next one. And I do understand that some can't do this, some can't pass up any subject, even when they know it's gonna cause em nightmares. Those are the whiners.

I will agree with you on this one. You say you cut a chogie, now that is a word I haven't used in a good many years. Another word I never hear in my part of the country is a brodie knob. Have fun.Stan

Stan, I haven't thought of a Brodie Knob in years, and my grandson just put one on my Blazer and I didn't remember the name, we called them thumb busters.

I remember as a sprouting teenager going into Western auto about once a week to check on the newest shippment of "necking knobs" just to ogle over the latest bathing suit clad pin-up picture that was inset in the knob. That would get us guys all charged up for going downstairs to the pool hall which was in the basement under the Western Auto store, and then try to get a free peek at some of the "contraband literature" that existed there. Gee, what todays kids are missing..... .....

Aloha, I remember when I was a teen, I had one on my steering wheel and we called it a suicide knob. LOL

I couldn't live without one of those spinners. Keeps one hand in control, and one free to run the loader!

I have Brodie Knobs on my tractors. At the end of the field, I stomp the break spin the steering wheel raise the mower and the tractor turns on a dime. Stan

Comments about fuel for tractors and horse sh!t- Former neighbors were Amish, they know about horse sh!t and farming with low fuel cost.:) Take a lesson from them?
