Lowboy questions!
Posted: Sun May 11, 2008 7:57 pm
OK - we bought the farm last year & I had to have a tractor. Rojito joined us a week after we moved in. He is a '49 cub high crop. Lots of fun & just what I wanted, almost.
We have many many many mature trees on our land - in fact we have very little sunlight that hits the ground. The Previous owner cut all the trees branches up so he could mow under them with his rider. My cub however is tall & I get branches in my face at every tree (30 or more).
I don't want to cut any more branches, I don't like the look of a tree skinned 10 feet off the ground (especially evergreens). Which brings me to my question, what year of lowboys have the rounded hood look like my '49, and how much shorter are they?
I might be looking to swap out for a lowboy if I can still have that cool 'Old tractor' look.
