[AT] D17 with front fenders

[charliehill]

I think maybe Al said that and he and I have one thing in common.  We both 
live down here in coastal NC on loamy sand.  When it's wet enough to make 
mud it's too wet to be in the field for the most part.   Really, most of my 
tractor driving these days is bush hogging and some of the stuff I bush hog 
would rip the fenders off of the front wheels even if I could keep from 
running them into brush big enough to be called trees.
