Brian, I have a John-Deere 316 Lawn & Garden tractor, I also have a five-note aluminum whistle. Never did marry the two, but had the thought of my tractor pulling its tag-a-long vacuum unit and Toot-Tooting every so often.

I'll get some pics up if I can get away from the grill long enough to take some. Maybe even some vids.
Well then have yourself a splendid tomorrow. Weather is supposed to be better anyhow!

I looked at the scheme when I designed it and went "man, that looks like John Deere colors" so, when it came time to buy green paint, one of the selections was the "John Deere Green", and, well, I couldnt resist.

Ray that is a beautiful truck.

No pressure on the service box just wondering. I won't put the dump on my truck til I put a new bed on it. Current bed would disintegrate if I tried to do anything like that with it.
