[AT] Showing tractors

[jahaze at aol.com]

Farmer,



I don't think anyone would really care of you wanted to show the Yanmar, most people are tired of seeing the same old tractors over and over again (I know I am), just think of?it as adding a little diversity to any show you attend.



Enjoy, Joe?

    I posted the question below in the middle of a long message that I sent 
after many of the members were at or on the way to Portland. I would still 
be interested in what other clubs might think of a Yanmar 1500-D as a show 
tractor. BTW, it is one of the odd green colored ones, not the red/orange 
and white later ones.
