@FarmerChris13 I bought this Yamaha RMax a couple of years ago and have been very happy with it. We use it for spraying, rock picking and running around the farm. I even take it to get groceries sometimes.

Best side by side for fencing/poly wire moving cows and general farm abuse? I should be looking at one to (more) safely be able to take the little cowgirl with me this summer.

@SmithDnksmitty It amazes me how it will look like that, then all of a sudden it's green, then bolting in a short period of time.

Some of the brownest winter canola plants we could find before and after 4 days inside, hope it’s a good sign for things to come. 🤞

@JoshBoersen @scottyheps @WheatPete Your canola looks fantastic. Ours looks a bit ugly right now, but it does every spring. We've had a lot of rain down here, now have standing water and freezing temps on the way. I suspect we'll lose some low spots, but we'll see in the coming weeks.

@Chance2FarmLtd We will get this one to the field this spring, then we'll strip it down next winter for paint and interior work. If we get carried away, maybe even put new rubber on it.

@AlexKnight936 Easy to fix and reliable. This one will get a bit of work over the next 2 years, minor things as time allows. Then I need to find a Big Bud.

It may not be fancy, but I will guarantee you that it will never have a def system failure. This was grandpa's favorite tractor. We sold it years ago, but now it's back and it will never leave again as long as I'm around. Next winter's restoration project came early.

@FrankBr05713205 We have some more modern stuff around here, and the def issues have me thinking the same way.

@AlexKnight936 That’s the way to do it, keep your old stuff. It’s made far better.

@xpmike I thought about using it on the air seeder part time, but with so many small fields, we have to back into a lot of corners, and we all know how the versatile transmissions shift. Haha

@AlexKnight936 I pulled a 28 foot bourgault air drill with the one I had. Of course had the motor on the back to run the fan.

@Rockratt They don't make them like this anymore that's for sure. This is more of a novelty than anything, but we'll put it to work doing something.

@TravisN36284321 Didn't have to go far or do much tracking. It stayed local, and we are friends with the guys who bought it. We have been bugging them for years, and finally wore them down I guess. Haha

@GordonLyon14 The little 5.9 this one has will pull hard as long as the RPMs don't drop too much. Friends of ours had a 555 with an 8?3 Cummins. It pulled pretty good.

@AlexKnight936 The only problem with the 500 was it wouldn’t lug down like a 555 or 835 would.

@Chance2FarmLtd Sure does. It was done before they bought it 25 years ago. Great little motor!

@jcurtis7ac It was converted to a 5.9 when we bought it back in 2001. Whoever did it did a really neat job.
