We had this old guy for our combine.

International 915
the first time i cut corn in our new 915 i was around 10 years old. I had been running a Massey 300 for about 3 years and I was almost scared shitless at how fast you could push the 915. That was the finest combine every made.

Great video .
My father in law passed a 53’ super c to me a few years back.
It’s what I use to take care/farm my 12 acres.

There's a joke that talks about coyote love or wolf love, or some shite like that. Anyway, it's something about bringing a fat chick home when you're drunk, and then waking up the next morning with her laying in your arms. You don't want to wake her up and just want to GTFO, so you gnaw your arm off like a coyote or a wolf.

I fricked that all up, but I remember it being a decent joke when told correctly.

Maybe not the smaller tractors but 70 and 80s model JD and CIH farm tractors are still holding incredible value.

I have a 1976 International 986 that will outwork my 2016 Deere 6110m all day long.

There is always something wrong with the Deere.

Coyote Ugly - when you wake up hungover with an ugly woman laying on your arm, you gnaw off your arm, so you don't wake her up and get the hell out.

Double Coyote Ugly - she's so ugly and nasty, you go ahead and gnaw off your other arm, because you're afraid when she wakes up, she'll try to hunt down a guy with one arm gnawed off.

Hard to tell from the pic if your pto driveshaft is one piece but we always used some sort of cable restaint over the top in case the shear pin breaks at the bush hog. That damn thing will be flying around in circles without any restraint and can knock your head off.

The thing about a tractor is it will last forever. Even if you work the shite out of it. As long as you maintain the fluids and what not it will go a long time.

with his 4020
Still have 2 of those in semi-daily use on the farm. Both 1968 models. All original in pristine condition. Worth a premium when we bought them (late 80s/early 90s) and worth a small fortune these days.

Here's why farmers don't buy the new model every couple of years:
New Cotton picking machine $600,000
New Harvesting combine $100,000 to $500,000
New tractor $70,000--$120,000

We had a 4010 and a 4020 too. Those 4020’s are one of the best tractors ever made.

The 66 series tractors are probably the best ever built!

We had one with mud hogs on the rear end. It would go anywhere.

Friend of mine tells a story about how you should always hand a girl the tv remote.

Short version: he drunkenly takes a fat girl home. Later that night after sobering up and having done the deed she asks for the tv remote. He tosses it to her and she drops it on the floor. She leans over in the bed to get it and he gets a full view of her fatass. It makes him throw up. Moral of the story he says is that you always hand them the remote, don’t throw it.
