Three Names

[farmer 1,075]

Hello All,

I recently purchased a Commando 8 for restoration, and its got me thinking about names. Imagine you were the person who worked at and your job was to name the tractors, so far youve come up with-

Rangers, Commando, Raider, Charger and Bronco.

Then your boss comes in one day and says, "We are going to produce three top end models 16,18 and 20hp, you got to name em".

What would you chose?

How about...

Eagle 16

Grizzly 18

And the Bison 20

Only my nonsense :thumbs:

Only one I can think of

Maverick!!!! :thumbs:

[stevasaurus 22,273]

That is way too easy...

Brontosaurus, Stegosaurus, Stevasaurus, Sallysauraus, Tyrannosaurus, Raptor

Farmer, if you did not know, those names that you mentioned were the names of the OLD AFC football teams. Except for Commando. :thumbs:

Keeping the same theme, I'd say name one Titan. (Go JETS)

Pollack Pete,

It would be fun to see the neighbours face when you tell him you've got an F-16 in your garage. :thumbs:

When Toro announced they were discontinuing the tractor we tried telling them to 'downsize it' quality wise and they'd still sell but it fell on deaf ears.

:thumbs: i always wondered about that commando name now we all know

[TT-(Moderator) 1,129]

It's really strange that some auto manufacturers didn't get bent out of shape about using names like Commando, Bronco, and Charger - since they were already taken.

Guess things were different back then. :thumbs:

I know zero about American football (except you really like to call it football ) so this out of my "league". As Chris said though, keeping to the same theme, the Titan 20 sounds spot on.

Why Commando ? I would like to think it was the first "named horse"

and the first to "go in"...... are the Commando's :thumbs:

[WheelHorse_of_course 99]

That is way too easy...

Brontosaurus, Stegosaurus, Stevasaurus, Sallysauraus, Tyrannosaurus, Raptor
