      Well their owners are like religious zealots... and the think the machines are Christ-like and can walk(drive) on water!

      SF3. why not just buy the make that comes with a 1600 gallon tank? I'm sure the mods done to new JDs must void any warranty?

        Not sure origin of those pics.
        But neighbour had exact thing happen to his young son. He almost drowned. Couldn't open door. Modified tank made for very little room between tank and back of cab. Had trouble finding something to smash window with in neck deep in water. Can't swing your arm under water. Case has factory glass breakers hanging in cab and now I know why.
        Local case was not phone distraction.
        New field. Lot of sloughs. Water level with field surface. Simple mistake. Operator was 18 I think. On the phone with Dad while chin deep trying to get out, panicking. Dad didn't know what he was gonna find when he got out there. Cab fully submerged. Kid standing on tank.
        Looks funny I know, but nobody here laughed.
        This spring an elderly man died when he put his track hoe in a dug out on new land.
        Maybe leaving spoil piles beside the dugout serve a purpose????

                  It does void the warranty but we have another company that does cover it. New sprayer comes with big tank and it’s green just need a crop

                    I suppose if you had just been driving right through all of the sloughs on the rest of the field, you would have just drove into this one also.

                    I still think texting/snap chat/etc
