Smile Finally pulled my tractor!!!

I got my '06 F150 about a month ago. I've been anxious to take my 1941 John Deere B to a show. Today was the day. I took her to the Corn Festival in my hometown of Wilmington, OH. Boy did this truck do well! I had a '02 Dodge Ram with the 5.9. This truck didn't even hardly grunt. My trailer is 1880#, and the John Deere is about 3800-4000# because of the calcium in the tires. My Dodge bumped around alot but the ride was so smooth in my F150, I didn't hardly even know the trailer was back there.

Here's a pic:

Noblem:

if you haven't been on it www.yesterdaystractor.com is a great site! they have forums for each brand of tractor. I have gotten alot of great advice from there.

if you go to www.jdsmodela.com you can see what my B looked like when I got it.

Nice looking B. That's one thing I've always wanted to do is pull a tractor to a show with my truck. I've helped friends get their tractors on their trailer and truck, to a local show, but never mine. Maybe some day.

Those R diesels sound nice when they are running. But MAN what a heavy tractor!!

I think your tractor is sexy... I will be purchasing one to work in a year or so. Kind of excited.

I grew up driving an 'A' model of the same age as yours. I have been looking for a 420 for years to restore.
