ebinmaine 63,125 #1 Posted March 8, 2020 Don't ya love it when you ask someone to do something and they do that... And then something else.... @WHX24 and/or @Achto Just wanted to say a forum public THANKS for the work on the hubs I sent out. They look great !! And Colossus will be very happy to use them. Pretty awesome how a bunch of folks around the country/world take such great care of each other and their machines. 8 6 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCM 8,649 #2 Posted March 8, 2020 I remember recently a RS member needed help to bring a tractor from Mass to Maine and for me it was a very positive experience I believe for the both of us. Amazing when 2 people are upfront and honest with each other how things run smoothly and develop into hopefully a life long friendship. I just wish this World still operated on this basic old school system that WORKS,we would all be better off because of it. Have a great Sunday all. 9 5 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 63,125 #3 Posted March 8, 2020 @JCM ... I'm sorry you had to be subjected to "me" for that many hours in a row. Good to hear your psychological recovery is going well. 1 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClassicTractorProfessor 5,261 #9 Posted March 8, 2020 I agree 100%, that is one of my favorite things about this place. We are all one big group with a common interest, and everyone is always more than willing to help out a member in need. I have witnessed this many times here, and it makes me proud to be a member of this great forum. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ended up having spinal fusion surgery the week of the show and two great friends that I had never met, but will never forget loaded the tractor up and brought it to North Carolina for me. Total strangers that I now feel closer to than family. @Wheel-N-It and @Jrblanke, you guys are the best. This site is family and we are blessed to know such great people. 2 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pullstart 59,708 #14 Posted March 9, 2020 I’ve met a few of these guys we’re talking about here.... I guess they’re pretty alright indeed Aint it funny what (once) total strangers will do for each other, and how many people share so many interests more than just these tractors? It’s truly unique! 1 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
