    Fill in tow vehicle

    Had to use the back-up plan this past weekend to get the camper out of the barn. With all the rain we have been having, and camping season fast approaching, the field was a little too squishy for the truck. I even entertained the neighbors by taking it down the road the 2 miles to the house. Had a couple thoughts during the trip, "you might be a redneck if you ever pulled a camper behind a tractor" and the Green Acres jingle kept running through my mind.

    @Pap and Mimi - sure hope you did not exceed the payload capacity on ole green !.......that will get some folks pretty fired up !

    My B-I-L uses a newer green machine or neighbor's Bobcat to get his fiver in and out of the shed. Spring and fall can be pretty greasy.

    Traded my old faithful 2640 in on a Kubota with a cab a couple of years ago. I trade hay making help with a guy who owns a 2840 and have spent plenty of time behind the wheel. Got tired of burning eyes, sneezing and sweating all summer and freezing in the winter. The orange will never last as long as the green one, but it will outlast me.
