Getting the landscape looking its best can be a tough job, especially if you don’t have the right tools. But, a few hard workers are always ready to devise a workaround. Don’t have a hedge trimmer? No problem. Just Loop some supportive cables under the chassis of a riding mower – keeping well away from the rotors, of course – and start moving.
Depending on the setup, this might even be faster than the traditional way to get perfectly manicured hedges. It also means schlepping fewer tools, but you’re definitely going to get some strange looks if you do this in a suburb or a more populated area.
Something... Has Happened
Okay, we figured it out. Let's go piece by piece. First, there's the tractor, or what's left of it. The cab and back wheels are looking okay, but the entire front of the tractor has been torn to shreds in an entirely unrecognizable manner. In the center is a set of train tracks. On the right side is a train on another set of tracks.
Able to piece things together yet? Tractors don't move very fast – if they get stuck on a train track, then they're pretty much out of luck. Such is what happened here. We can only hope that the driver could get away before anything happened.
The Mod Squad
Customizing your ride is a common thing to do. Whether it's for a specific purpose, because you like to showboat, or it's just something you can do with your hands when you have some free time, plenty of people do it. Of course, most modifications aren't like this little tractor, which at first glance looks like a grill.
They've jacked up the undercarriage and added some bigger wheels – and look! It's for sale! For what is almost certainly a low, low price, you can be the proud owner of this Frankensteined vehicle. The real question is... what will you do to make it even better?
When You Want to Get Your Work DONE
Fields to plow? Grain to carry? Anything else to do around the farm? Consider it done when this tractor starts up. In actuality, this is a racing tractor, and we hope it wins because otherwise, SOMETHING will get destroyed.
Look at those three huge exhausts! How much horsepower does this thing have? Thousands, maybe? This tractor is ready to start its engines and bring home the trophy. Don't worry about safety; there's a roll bar. We've finally figured it out. Any time a tractor gets stuck in the mud or a lake, this is the machine that they roll out to free the first.
We Believe This Is Called Irony
Tractors do a lot more than make sure fields are properly plowed. In places with a lot of snowfall, these heavy machines pull plenty of duty clearing roads so that people can get to and from work without getting stuck or sliding the whole way there.
Of course, some storms even catch tractors unaware. This one might not have been clearing highways, but even a parking lot can become a big issue if there's enough snow in the way. Thankfully, tractors are built to deal with things like this – as long as it can start, it can probably get out of there.
