Wow fit the GT14 into the minivan. :banghead: The tractor looks like a good buy also. :USA:

The other day an ebay seller said he had just loaded a dozer winch into a minivan. My guess it it would have been over 2,000 pounds. :horseplay:

We may have just witnessed the birth of a whole bunch of new "you might be a redneck if you've ever............" Hey Jeff Foxworthy where are you? :omg:

when i showed up at his house with the olds minivan he said"no way are you getting that in there" i said"i think i can get it loaded".i took the snow plow off and strapped it to the roof and put the rest in the van.

That is *exactly* what the seller of my Charger 12 said when I picked it up with my mini van.

I love our mini van. Far more practical than most "SUV's". I get such a laugh at the supposed stigma associated with it.

One thing to watch out for though is tractors with stacks. My 854 made it home in the van, but only by partially unscrewing the stack (I did bring a saw as I knew it would be in the way) - I would not count on being able to do that again. :banghead:

Any way, nice find! :USA:

i was actually amazed at how easily it went in,the access was great for loading with the sliding doors on both sides of the van and although it was overloaded the van hauled it very nicely.

i got the big GT14 fired up today and took it for a test drive today.it seems to run and drive fine just needs lot of little tlc things.looks like i will need an ignition switch.the one one it isnt a regular run of the mill garden tractor ignition switch,should it have the one with the standard one key fits them all or should it have one that is specific to the GT14? oh one more thing,does this take the standard headlight lense that the c series and 68-73 tractors take or is it specific to the GT14?
