Lots of new stuff for this year's show. Abby's Broadmoor 717 made it's first appearance as well as my new Sovereign 18hp. My 7016 had been struggling as of late and overheating. I believe this caused the coil to fail and with the engine mounted as it is I decided to get something newer and more reliable for mowing duties of my dad's 2 acres. I found a nice Sovereign with the Kohler OHV V-twin 18hp Command engine. Couldn't be happier with it. This was my first hydro transaxle, too. It pulled the hay wagon just fine, as my daughter's Yeoman 616 did, too! She wanted me to try and pull with it so i did, and even though it definitely fought for traction at times it did it. We had some friends of my son come too, and they brought their Sovereign so we had two there. Lots of tractor time this year as we had 3 beautiful days!
It looks like you all had a great time of building memories. The girls look so very happy to be spending time with you and the new tractor. They are so blessed that you get to spend time together as a family even if they may not realize it right now. Thank you for sharing this.
