[AT] yanmar

[Larry D. Goss]

Farmer, you "need" a vineyard tractor.  I saw several brands of them
working in among the grapes in Germany a few years ago.  Strange looking
beasts -- maximum width of the whole tractor is about 30 inches. On most
models that means that the driver's seat has to be well in front of the
rear wheels otherwise there isn't enough space between the wheels
without "burnishing your cheeks."  The tractors give the impression of
having been put sideways in a large vise and squeezed.

	I already have a dozen wide tractors, I want this one "because"
 it is narrow...   <(^¿^)>
	It would fit around inside of the barns and I could park it in
an
 empty horse stall. It would also fit between the pumpkin rows in 
the early stages of growth.
