[AT] Some ads from the 4/10 Lancaster Farming

[Mike Sloane]

While the Lo-Boy is a nice enough machine, many of the Cub implements 
will not work with the Lo-Boy, or they have to be modified. Also, 
because of the way IH engineered the lower height by moving the rear 
wheels forward (among other things), it is not easy to get on to and off 
of the Lo-Boy. (And I suppose there is a visual element also: because 
they sit lower, they don't look as much like a "real" tractor to some 
people.) At least that is my take on the matter.

As for the number of Cubs in the ads, remember that what I sent this 
week was from the paid classified ads, not the free-to-subscribers 
Mailbox Markets ads. Cubs tend to show up in greater numbers in the paid 
classifieds, for unknown reasons.
