My wife has explained that I have a more generic form of tractoritis - about 6 at this point, 4 Fords, 1 Oliver and 1 IH (656D- ya really need one!). I have continually been able to justify the "need" for each of them. I think you need to work harder on the justification end - I have several suggestions for approaches: 1. The great deal - once in a lifetime, gonna make an easy $1,000 bucks etc. Of course you have to sell to realize any gains, but that is a whole separate conversation. 2. Plan to get back into farming. Organic farming is really viable - people making tons of money etc. Need a reasonable size, larger, smaller, loader, etc. to really thrive. 3. Investment opportunity. Tractors are appreciating 20% a year - how much did we get last year in our retirement account? 4%.....etc. 4. New/old tractors are a lot cheaper than a mistress and you always know where I am going to be. I think you need to go easy on the delivery of this one, maybe use it as the ace in the hole if you really need it. Regards, Tip
