[AT] Spam> Favorite tractor?

[Howard Weeks]

My stable includes the following at the moment:

*51 Super C Farmall
 52 Cub Farmall
*53 Super M Farmall
*70 154 Cub Loboy
 44 A Farmall
 46 B Farmall
 39 Allis B
*60 430T JD
*55 70D Standard JD

I use them all but prefer the ones marked with an asterisk.
They are very easy to get on and off of.
