Hello! Freezing drizzle here tonight in SEMN, so I thought I'd post a question I've been pondering for quite some time. The question is: What tractor make & model (i.e Deere 3020, IHC 656, A-C 175, etc.) was available from the manufacturer with the largest number of options and/or configurations? My vote is for the Oliver 1650, which was available as: 1) Gasoline, diesel or LP engines 2) Narrow front, wide front, short wheelbase, tricycle, mechanical 4WD, and hydraulic 4WD 3) Wheatland, ricefield, industrial, high-crop and utility configurations 4) Straight-drive transmission, 2-speed auxillary transmission, 3-speed auxilliary transmission, creeper drive transmission 5) Open station, roll bar with canopy, fully enclosed cab 6) Internal or external remote hydraulic valves 7) Many other wheel and tire options I got to thinking: a collection of just this ONE MODEL, in all of its various configurations, would be many dozens of tractors! What makes/models get your votes tonight? Be safe and warm out there! Merlin in Rushford, MN

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
