    Learned how to drive on one of those zetors. Gear stick up beside the wheel. No brakes/lights etc. Would only start with a pull!! Power steering was an optional extra we didn't have either. Would love to get one again. What is she Reggie? 3511? You could lift anything with them, given the size of the nose on them

    Reggie any chance you'd fix my bull raddle? The best it can stay on is about 2 weeks.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Don't the lids have a little valve in the top? My hardi has, must be needed or it wouldn't have it?

    The tank didn't collapse as you were spraying or anything?

    Nope, didn't suck in. Probably not airtight, but certainly no liquid came out, and I had almost the full 600l in it, and driving over some pretty rough terrain.
