378Pete 237 #1 Posted December 14, 2015 My wife is the greatest women in the world. Brought home a trailer load of wheel horses and she met me at the barn to unload and complimented every single purchase. So I added a 1257 an 856 and a charger 12. Also got a 32" snowblower a plow 18hp twin briggs and some new foot pegs for the suburban. They are all very well weathered but two run amazing. The charger 12 was bought as a parts tractor. Will get more pics when I get back home.not sure of the plan yet but i do know the 1257 is gonna get cleaned up to be my primary mower, pusher worker. Will be posting for a few parts so please look for that post. 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think so but having her out in the barn at 8@night ripping all that rusty gold off the trailer and telling me how good I did and all the stuff we could do with the the new tractors, reaffirmed why we have been married for 13 years. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coadster32 793 #16 Posted December 15, 2015 Yup...I stopped at thirteen. Although I never had a problem selling any horses. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I probably could have tried a little harder.Deep down I didn't really want to sell it but I tried to recoup a little money back that we had to spend on an emergency vet bill. Then my wife said I was crazy selling my nicest wheel horse and I very quickly agreed! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coadster32 793 #18 Posted December 17, 2015 Like your wife, mine is a keeper as well. She's pushed a few horses on/off the trailer for me as well. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
