I thought it would cool here what got you all in tractors.

I started when I was 13 or 14 by getting 2 cheep walk behinds fixing then selling them so I could pay for a rider (I mowed 7 acres with a 21" walk behind and Dad said if I wanted a rider I had to pay for it) so I started getting cheep mowers fixing them then selling them. I did get a Scott's JD L2048 and used for a bought 1 year then went with a craftsman LT1000 and Killed it so I got a 420 and a 425 AWS to mow with, but when we moved (a bought 1 mouth ago) I had to sell all my tractors so I dont have any right now. I have had a bought 40 lawn tractors and garden tractors in the last 5 years and around 25 of them have been JOHN DEERE.

My father is to blame , more to thank I think and every where I have worked we had JD's.
After selling the street rod I needed a new hobby , one led to two and etc, etc just to
share some special time with Pop.
Its always been green but there have been a few others and one still remains as it was a
gift from a neighbor who has since passed on. It will never be sold as it has a very special place
in my heart and I am only the third owner as the other two were he and his brother in law.

I have always liked John Deere best my grate uncle was a row crop farmer in the Columbia basin tell he passed in 2007 I also have liked ford trucks all my life because that's what he drove!! my dad still has my uncles JD2440 and my brother has my great grandpa's ford 2N.

I’ve loved tractors from the day I was born by mostly for me it came from helping my grandpa farm. He has an old 1965 John Deere 2510 with a JD model 45 loader on it. That was the first tractor I ever drove. And it became my favorite tractor. When I turned about 11 my grandpa finally started letting me drive the tractors around by myself. After that I got my great grandpas old 1951 Ford 8n. Me and my grandpa restored that tractor to take to tractor shows. And now in the past 5 years I have about 4 tractors ,3 being hand me downs and my forth one I bought from mowing lawns which was the JD 110.
But anyway now that I’m older I’m allowed to drive the bigger tractors and help around a lot more.

Well I have always been a motorhead. Have always had cars, wheelers and what not. I bought a JD 216 few years ago for mowing and snow duty. My daughters took interest, so we picked up an 86 S92 to restore. Then we got into GT pulling.

I've been given and collecting farm tractor toys since I was 3 years old and have a small collection compared to most collectors. My favorite piece of the collection was the 1/16" scale John Deere 110 toy. In 1989 I decided to search for the real McCoy and add it to the toy collection. Needless to say, the smaller toy collection has taken a backseat to the now larger toy collection.

With both the large and small tractor collection, plus the numerous other collections that I have, I've determined that I'm out of room!! 😒
