Super H,

Some people are in love with Harleys, I had a 650 triumph for many years and a Jag XKE. I've always loved Brittish Iron.

I grew up with Farmalls. I now have my late Mom's Farmall C. It's in great mechanical shape. I'm smilling when I using it to mow, push snow, and pull a dump trailer.

I used to have a 95 GMC pick up. It had some issue, but I could easily work on it. V6 with an engine compartment for a V8.

In late 2007 I learned it was the last year for the GMC classic body style. I went to a GMC dealer and he researched the internet for the GMC work truck I was wanting. He found one and I'll keep the truck running as long as possible, bending totalling it out in a major accident. I bought three of the largest tool boxes on the market at the time. My work truck is a tool box on wheels. I need to make repairs away from workshop. Most may not know, the classic body style are the last of the low riders. Most trucks today, the top of the truck bed is higher than the top of my tool boxes. I refuse to carry a step ladder to see inside my tool boxes and climb into truck.

So I hear you, sometimes we get attached to items and others think we are crazy. I feel the same way about terramites, just love what I can do with one that I couldn't do without one. I may be the only one on YT that thinks that way. Doesn't change the way I feel about them. A few years ago, I bought a second terramite. I got tired of transporting mine form my place in the north to the place in the south of the county.
