This is my White tractor and it's name is "Honkey"; therefore is called the "White Honkey". We call my shop, "The Hood". Had some work to do in the backyard at my house in town and not having a functioning pickup truck due to frame rot, I used the tractor to haul the skid steer the couple miles back and forth working very well.

Sent this photo to a long term customer of mine who understands my sense of humor well. He is black, kind hearted, and good natured guy, so got a laugh out of this.

Caption sent with this photo:

When there is work to do, sometimes being the only "White Honkey" in the "Hood" isn't such a bad thing.


Tractor will run right at 18mph uphill, downhill with that 7000# plus load strapped to it's ass easily. City cops waved at me as I traipsed through the downtown area which is a state highway.

Thanks Steve; Really is a good tractor I use primarily for mowing with the rear mount finish mower. Isuzu diesel that starts and runs well. 2099hrs on the clock as I type this. Most of the police in town here know me, or know of me. I'm not thought to be any kind of troublemaker and we have so many farms surrounding the small town, nobody thinks much of a tractor driving through no matter the size. Same thing with golf carts, and ATV's; although those now require an annual "city" permit. Plenty of them around. 

Turn lights on, run the four way flashers, display the SMV emblem, and get after it; narry any problems.
That's All Folks!

Wonderful day for a tractor ride or two, three, four, or however many passes shuttling equipment between the shop and house. Waved to probably six police vehicles including two different state troopers on the state highway that fronts my shop. Old "Honkey" continues to perform well rendering perfect response to what is asked for:


And a quick trip to the station to fill the old Hobart Bros. welding machine for next weeks usage. I don't bulk gasoline at the shop but will once a donated but used tank is flushed clean and tested.



Did some more spraying as residual touch up today too, but didn't photo that. 
That's All Folks!
