Awesome stuff and a real improvement over a single tractor unit.
I haven`t seen the Farm Show for a while, is it still on the air?

I watch Prairie Farm Report whenever I remember, it's a great show. The program showcases the resourcefulness of farmers and ranchers. Some amazing home built, effective, equipment is shown.

Apparently, back in WW 11, both the US and Canadian armies, used to try to assign one farmer to each tank, as they felt that if the tank broke down....then the soldier who had farm experience could probably get it going with limited tools and parts.

I heard something like that also but I heard it was because it was just like driving a farm tractor.

We got a few of those combo's at the Rouleau Meusem. One are WD9's and the other is a WD9 and Massey 97. They look pretty crude but they were a work horse.
