Over the last few years I've bought a couple of new tractors to take some pressure off my D17. Yeah I know we're only doing food plots, but the farmer in me kept saying "we need bigger stuff", and like most farmers I kept buying bigger stuff. While the D17 never complained, I just had a feeling I might have been pushing it a little. It's a great over-achiever as it is, but I also respect it enough not to abuse it, so I've kind of put it in semi-retirement. Now it gets used mostly for planting, and at a nice easy pace too.
With Spring being LATE this year we've been behind, but it's finally warmed up and it's time to get seeds in the ground. 2 nights ago I made the trip to Moms, where I keep it in storage during the off season. Last night we planted around 3 acres of corn, we have about 4 acres of beans left to plant. This tractor ALWAYS puts a smile on my face.
Parked for the night, ready for when the beans show up;
