My OLD 446 has survived another year.

Post by mendonsy »

After a day of the usual spring tinkering and maintenance my 1978 446 spent today mowing my lawn. That makes the 47th year for it to do that.
I don't think there is any tractor on the market today that would even come close to that lifespan.

Good point Mendosy! Maybe you could post a few pics of your 446. We all love pics. Congratulations on another mowing season. It probably lasted that long because you take good care of it. :thumbsup: :peace: Harry

My oldest tractor is likely a 1962 Colt, making me 6 years old then.
