As you may have seen in THIS ENTRY, Cliff's brother Don came to visit with two tractors in tow. Once they were unloaded, he needed something on the trailer to take back home to Kansas. Because after all, who wants to haul an empty trailer around... right?
It just so happens that a next-door neighbor had a Ford pickup sitting in his back yard that stopped running a couple of years ago; he'd just bought new tires and a new battery at the time. Don makes his living as a mechanic, and since he was able to buy said pickup for $700, he loaded it up and made use of his trailer. He'll figure out whether the engine can be repaired; if not, he can get his money back by parting it out. He's a Chevy man, so I'm not sure he'd keep the pickup for himself even if he got it running.
The guys had some doubts about how safe it would be, loading something onto a trailer that might be slick with snow.
Little Johnny (the smaller of our two John Deere tractors) looks mighty small to be pushing a big pickup up a ramp like that. (That's our renter's mobile home in the background.)
Push, Little Johnny! Push! You can do it!
All but the back tires are on the trailer.
Little Johnny has done the job once again. Such brute power packed into a small frame.
We love Little Johnny.
