Nope. Dad had two Percheron's. He was 6 ft 1 inch and those two stood higher than him.

Jerry and Mae. Jerry was a champion puller and pop never could break him of starting out with a jerk.

BTW..do you know what a Ponsse harvestor is now days? Right at around 1 million dollars. The whole harvest system-processor and forwarder are at about 1.5 million fro the cheap system.

John Deere's 803 tracked harvestor is supposed to be at about 800 thousand.

BTW...we used to ride them.

Just like riding a Cadillac. Most gentle animals on earth.Pop loved those two and never got rid of them. He turned them loose and let them retire in pasture.
