WHX?? 46,404 #1 Posted July 5, 2017 (edited) ....we have the best site on the planet....somebody chimed in on @dells68 thread about scoreing him (was it you Greg @Amcwheel85 ?!?!) a t shirt at the BS and I jokingly chimed in about one too. Low and behold I get PM from said Dells when he is at the BS, and I'm sure busy soaking in the sights & sounds, he & his main little man goes out of his way, gets me a shirt (very correct size & color I might add)... packages it up and sends it to me!!!!!!!! Now how cool is that!!! Now I never met Mr. Dells face to face. Although he was at the BS last year I just got too busy to shake his hand. A big Dells!

Most of our wife's think we're just a bunch of crazy guys who buy junk old red tractors . In reality we're a bunch of guys that are willing and ready to help out any Horseoholic in time of need even though many of us have never met .

19richie66 16,824 #6 Posted July 5, 2017 A point I have made before. Lot of good people on here and I have only met two of them. Spoken to many and hope to make it to the show to personally thank many of them for the help and advice/parts/things I have got from them over the years. This place rocks. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"D"- Man 827 #11 Posted July 5, 2017 A RS member on the forum stated he was going to make a pair of rear axles for his tractor. I PM'ed him to ask if he could make a custom pair to accommodate duals. He not only purchased the steel, the machining and the heat-treating, but packed them and paid to ship them to me, {all without even knowing me} and offered, "If I liked them I could send him the payment, and if I didn't, I could simply return them." At about 1/3rd or 1/2 of retail I gladly paid and am very happy with them. Members like this gentleman are what makes RS one of the best Wheel Horse sites that there is. My thanks to all members like this. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is what makes our hobby great - the people! Most of us have memories of our youth and family using these great old tractors. That is what makes this hobby what it is and ties us together like family. In a sense we are all one big Red Square family! 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WHX?? 46,404 #13 Posted July 5, 2017 Did somebody get an ice cream cone Dells? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dells68 7,494 #14 Posted July 6, 2017 3 Big bowls at the ice cream social before my wife checked radar, panicked, and wanted to go! Since we were hit by a tornado about 6 years back, she is scared of storms! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 14,805 #15 Posted July 6, 2017 3 big bowls? I'm hoping that was for 3 people. I was pretty much at the end of the line for ice cream, and since they couldn't seem to get rid of the strawberry ice cream, I asked for a second bowl (they were melting into milkshake consistency by this time) and I was told no. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
