Eddie Murphy’s tractor

[c-series don 11,433]

A few years ago someone here posted that they had (if I remember correctly) a 418? that belonged to Eddie Murphy, yes that Eddie Murphy. It was not for sale, the gentleman wanted to hold onto it. Now I’m not exactly in the position to buy another tractor right now, but I have a 418-8 and a 418-C so to complete the 418’s a 418-A would be nice. I was just wondering if anyone remembers who that was that posted that? And if in fact it was a 418-A? If so and it were ever to come up for sale I might be interested in it. As I remember it was in very good condition and given its history it would be cool to add to my collection.

I believe this is what you're referring to @c-series don

That is exactly it @ineedanother! Thank you! I don’t think we’ve heard from @johnnymag3 in quite a while here? And yes, as I remember that Eddie Murphy tractor is in very good condition. So is @Ike’s 130hr 418. I think there was some movement in the zipper area of my pants when I read 130hrs! I’d like to see more photos of both of them. Maybe someday I can put one of them in with my 400 series?

Yes! you're on another level than most of us  but we can usually find a good reason to tell our wives why we just have to have another

Let me be perfectly clear. My wife is going to want to kill me if/when I buy another tractor! 🤣

If we partner with your wife on the insurance policy, we’ll could be the ones buying more tractors

My wife loves critters of all kinds. Because of that, I decided years ago to preemptively make a plan for all my toys: I told her for every tractor I get, she gets another pet. 

 

Seemed great until I realized that feeding and housing animals is typically far more expensive than tractors... Clearly I failed to think this through. We now live on a farm with a donkey, 5 pygmie goats, 4 dogs, and 3 cats. Of course this is a fluid list that changes regularly. Usually increasing more than not. 

 

I have 8 Wheel Horses. I'm thinking that somehow my original "deal" has been incorrectly applied here... 

 

I know, just get more tractors. We'll see I guess.
