[AJD] Re JD trailer ID

[greg at theoldtractorcompany.com]

Wait just a minute

I had assumed when this thread started it was referencing the old
equipment trailers Deere offered long ago. 

Snowco trailers were a more recent offering that personally I equate with the introduction of 
Deere's lawn equipment.

We used a Snowco for many years until it was stolen and in fact still have a single
place Snowco trailer here we use from time to time.

Which one?
