I'm still 25, and my first tractor was a Kubota M7040 bought last year. Actually my first bought tractor was a Kubota MX5100, but I traded several months later for the 7040. Not enough power.

In the summer of 06' my wife and I moved from the city on to 135 acres. It was a chance opportunity to get that kind of land 15 minutes from the city, and the only reason we stumbled upon it was because our apartment lease was coming due. And in 07', I touched my first tractor, then drove it. I haven't regretted anything since. We both grew up partially in the country, but neither had any experience or knowledge about farming. I never paid attention to all the hard working going on around me.

Now I take great pride in being a farmer. She does the horse breeding, I take care of the crops and maintenance (all the hard work?). I hope to pass everything I learn on to my kids one day.

And now I'm in the market for a second tractor to start ploughing, discing and seeding the land. Something over 100hp that has all the features my Kubota doesn't... 4wd, cab, power, weight, duals, etc. :) Best of all, I've already got the wife's approval on this one.

Today's Featured Article - Gatherin of the Orange - by Rick Nikolich. In July of 1998 I was talking to fellow Allis Chalmers collector Mike Schilling about the annual "Gathering of The Orange" AC show coming up in August of 1999. He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana. ... [Read Article]
