I am convinced that there is NOTHING more mind-numbing than driving a tractor. Did WAY too many hundreds of hours of it while growing up.

Depends on what you're doing. Driving a good orchard tractor down on the border was lots of fun for me at the time. Putting up borders, irrigating, breaking down borders. Losing count of how many indigo snakes you see either on the ground or wrapped around a branch on a grapefruit tree. Wearing my favorite pithe helmet and singing R&R tunes to the drone of the tractor engine. I wish i'd stayed on the farm instead of spending 30 years in advertising. Right now I'll bet Rick Perry would rather hear the drone of the tractor than the Austin liberal media making fun of him and his Paint Creek roots. ;o)

That looks like an old Ford...its a beauty. Which model is it? I have an 8n, 1948.
