whfan74 2,015 #1 Posted August 9, 2012 Was out at my folks property tonight for dinner and to check out dad's brand new zero turn. Started thinking that the weather was great and it was time to have a little fun. Rolled out my 6 year old daughter's (Addison) Lady Ranger and fired it up for her. She has driven it a couple of times already, but not as much as both of us would like. She was in heaven! Then I rolled out the Commando 8 and grabbed my 3 year old boy (Zach) and placed him on the seat. He was so excited and handled that machine like a pro. This was his first solo and loved every minute of it. Needless to say, I trust my boy on the tractor more than my daughter. Addison has a tendency to notice everything but where she is going. Here are a few pictures of the fun.......... Addison on the Lady Ranger..........notice she is not looking forward! Zach cruising on the Commando Both kids moving like turtles across the lawn............ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevebo-(Moderator) 8,031 #4 Posted August 9, 2012 Scott-there is not a day that goes by that my son does not wake up and ask if he can take one of the tractors for a ride. Then calls me at work and asks when I will be home so he can ride a tractor. I think we are creating little tractor junkies..... They look like they are having a blast !!

whfan74 2,015 #5 Posted August 9, 2012 Thanks guys! I agree...all the blood, sweat and tears was more than worth it. Well both woke up this morning and asked when they can ride them again! I love it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smoreau 658 #6 Posted August 9, 2012 Scott, set up some cones for them to drive around. That's how I got Gabby to stop looking around while driving. She had a lot of fun driving her tractor at the Charlotte show. It's so cool seeing our kids getting involved in this great hobby! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KC9KAS 4,741 #12 Posted August 10, 2012 Looks like the kids are having a blast! Just keep an eye on them and take the keys out of the ignition when you aren't home. That is the medical 1st responder and firefighter in me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kthack657 254 #16 Posted August 10, 2012 Those pics were amazing, I loved looking at them, just wait till they get a little older and really start zooming on them, my niece and nephew cannot get enough of the tractors when we take them to shows...Im just happy they are tall enough to reach the clutch now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
