Although I've just realised that I can't even get the acronym right! Obviously it should be TACH!

I thought it was TAAT (tractor assigned at birth) and now we know that Mumsnet has been in on this for years.

My fiat 500 is a tractor. Because they say they are.

I used to like tractors, but I’ve gone off them. I’m an ex-tractor fan

Eh?

Huh?

Aaaarrggghhhhh!

The variety of the apparatus attached to some of those beasts is astounding.

Y'ain't seen nothin' yet.

I would like to know what misspelling of tractors would lead to non tractor websites?

DS3 loves the bit in cars where mater takes lightning McQueen tractor tipping.

There's a tractor restaurant in Helsinki (or there used to be). I've eaten there quite a few times. Now I wonder about my boss's motivation in booking it.

I had a birthday meal there once. 😁

When does a tractor officially become a bulldozer ? I mean, my father in law built all sorts of stuff for his Massey F.

My dad used his tractor to plough to plant field grass after prolonged drought. It rarely got used as we were usually in drought. I think the only thing my family’s tractor could identify as was neglected.

Lets not mention the Non comBinery harvester!

You are most definitely on a roll… er! 😃

My father in law had one of them on his Massey. (rollers, to be clear)

A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian was an enjoyable read

And then what about the ride on mowers? Can they get cosmetic header and harvester attachments and line up with the combined to do a broadacre pass?

BootsAndRoots · 01/05/2022 12:06

A tractor is an adult lawnmower. But don't get me started on Diesel to Petrol conversion.

What I want to know if what exactly was the similar to tractor that he was looking at?

TheBiologyStupid · 01/05/2022 11:58

An excellent cartoon by Nick Newman in today's Sunday Times, with a farmer being told, "These tractors come in red, green, and 50 shades of grey".

Helleofabore · 01/05/2022 11:35

🙄 (sarcasm alert)

I liked your attempt.

So those tractors who are just tractors without the combine, are what then? Combines with their combines removed?

Show quote history

They are whatever they say they are plus a combine without its combine is still valid.

Or something.

@PeripateticKoala I think we have a relative in common. My umm bil I think has a thing for tractors, owns some, goes to tractor meets etc.
Unless it's really common?

Helleofabore · 01/05/2022 11:49

So a little Massey Ferguson tractor with some cobbled together parts of a header and the harvester sucky blowy thing, is still a tractor with artificial enhancements, ie. Not parts built for an actual combine harvester, but a tractor who is trying to replicate one.

IcakethereforeIam · 01/05/2022 11:46

Would a smart tractor that identified as a small truck be a trans-IT van?

It's okay, I didn't bother taking my coat off....

Helleofabore · 01/05/2022 11:45

I getcha now!!!!

DialSquare · 01/05/2022 11:41

Actually it would be the combine harvester that is Cis.

See this why I'm glad I'm on the side of reality as it's too confusing for me even when joking!

Cis tractors of course Helleofabore

Helleofabore · 01/05/2022 11:36

I was pretty unhappy my dad never let me drive the tractor, as you can see. I have tractor issues….
