Ferrari tractor on Ebay
Original Message   Jul 13, 2005 2:57 pm
I'm not connected to this auction in any way, and have no opinion as to whether this is a good deal or not, but it sure is an unusual tractor. I was not aware that Ferrari sold tractors in North America. I thought they only sold in Europe. Anyhow here is a photo and a link to the auction:

Good find, I'll definately keep an eye on this.  Would love to scoop it up cheap, but I'm sure someone will outbid me at the end like always.

Might be Paula that outbids you Bill?

You are right Marshall. I remember reading on the WTB forum where she used to ride her JD down the streets of Madison scowling at people, spitting sunflower seed shells on the sidewalk (a misdemeanor in WI) and yelling at people to put synthetic in their mowers. One tough babe. Now she'll be doing it on a class tractor.

Surely she's not a spitter. I bet she has more class than to spit on the sidewalk. Paula and Mister Meaners? Well, maybe so. Oh, you're right Highwind, she's into synthetics I hear. Probably because she's been a good reader and pays attention on the forum to the mens advice.

Hi...

I have seen these type of tractors for sale by a dealership in Mass... I have their catalog... they specialize in orchard supplies...

They look like sweet tractors... and there are other variations too... have no prices on 'em...

Would like to see 'em 1st hand...

Paula is a woman who takes good advice from a man?  Will miracles never cease. There is some hope for the lady after all.

Now I gotta call Ripley's and report this for their "Believe it or not" series.

Geno,

How about getting a picture if you hear of Paula riding her Ferrari through Madison, harranging the nice folks?

When dealing with a highly volatile species, like a woman, it would be best to use a long telephoto lens. If she hears the camera click, you'd be mincemeat in seconds. And don't post it yourself. Send it to one of the mods: they volunteered for dangerous duties like this and are therefore expendable. (where oh where is Bobby_P when you really need him)

You'll have solved the greatest mystery since the Caramilk bar secret: what does Paula look like? You'll earn more posting points than you'd get for a dozen reviews. How's that as an incentive for a little risky business?

little risky?  sounds like it could be dangerous.  but, I'll be sure to have my camera in my vehicle at 'all times'.  I could use the points ( don't post alot ) thou....hummmm it is a good idea to be on the moderators 'good guy'  list.     I'll ponder the pro's-con's on that suggestion .  I know the wrath of a angery women..been married 30 years.  I learned my lesson after just 1 time ( she is RIGHT when she's right..and she is RIGHT when she is wrong ).    just kidding dear-  ouch..
