As a newbie, I was assigned every night to run the ol international.. not too fun the 1st go around trying to get familiar with tractor at night.. took the next day while daylight to give it the once over... It seemed once I started to like the tractor, clean it out and make it " mine" ..of course it got assigned to somewhere else... I should have continued to complain about the tractor like everyone else did..
I wouldn't have minded keeping that unit... It kept everyone else away cause they hated to use their left leg and right hand.. lol
I think someone thought they would get one over on the new guy... But I was brought up running old IH grain trucks before I could drive my pick up on the road (legally)...lol
Miss those days
