When I was 12 or 13 I started really liking tractors. We had some  
family friends that farmed with a AC Model M. My grandfather told me  
sometime he would ask them to let me drive it. Each week when we would  
go to see them I would think maybe this time I would get to drive the  
tractor. Time went on and it never happened. When I turned 16 I got  
tired of waiting. I could drive then so I went to an auction and  
bought my first tractor a Cletrac AG. This was the first tractor I  
drove. Then I really had the tractor bug. Shortly I bought a Cat 20.  
It was froze up but I got it running and it was the second tractor I  
drove. Then I bought an Oliver HG and got it running. This was the  
third tractor I drove.

The moral of the story is you can't expect anyone to let you drive  
their tractor. If you want to drive a tractor you have to buy one.
