My dad, a contractor, had a Ferguson tractor with a front-end loader bucket. He let me climb into the bucket once, and lifted the loader up into the air ten feet or so. It was thrilling until my younger brother, sitting on Dad’s lap, reached over and pulled the ‘dump’ handle.

Is that the same Ferguson that made Al Bundy’s toilet?

I was just a 9 yr.old girl when my farmer uncle was short-handed loading bales in a trailer - so he told me to jump on the tractor and drive LOL!!!

It was a Massey Ferguson. I remember that like it was yesterday!!!!! I done good!
