[AT] diecast tractors or toys

[Larry D Goss]

LOL!  When the money the scale models were costing started to rival what I 
could spend to buy an actual operating tractor is the point at which I made 
the switch.  My grandkids love to pull the models off the shelves and set up 
farms on the rec room floor, but they like climbing over grandpa's real 
tractors even better.
