Have you ever watched an antique tractor pull and thought, “I want to do that!”? This episode is for you!

Dan goes back to the basics of antique tractor pulling and walks through what a first-time puller needs to know before taking their tractor down the track. From registering and understanding the rules to setting up your hitch, wheelie bars, and weights, Dan covers the practical details that can make your first pull a whole lot less intimidating.

He also talks about how to hook up to the sled, what to expect when you’re ready to pull, how to safely unhook, and even what to do if something breaks down.

Whether you’ve never pulled before or you’re thinking about taking your old tractor to its first pull, this episode will give you a better idea of what to expect and help you get prepared.

So if you’ve ever watched a tractor pull from the sidelines and thought, “Maybe I should try that…” — give this episode a listen!

How do you get the next generation interested in antique tractors—and more importantly, help them develop a genuine appreciation for the history behind them?

In this episode, we talk about the things you can do (and the things you should probably avoid!) when introducing kids and grandkids to antique tractors. Dan shares stories and lessons from his own experience raising kids and spending time with his grandchildren, along with some of the ways he has encouraged the next generation to appreciate old tractors and the history they represent.

We also hear from our host, who didn't grow up on a farming family, about how he developed an appreciation for antique tractors despite not having that family background.

Whether you're a lifelong tractor enthusiast, a parent or grandparent hoping to pass along the hobby, or someone who simply wants to preserve the history of these old machines, there's something in this episode for you.

The goal isn't just to teach the next generation how to work on an old tractor—it's to give them a reason to want to.

Join us as we talk about passing the torch and keeping the love of antique tractors alive for generations to come!

Can you identify a tractor without seeing it? Put your tractor knowledge to the test in this fun episode of the Farm Tractor Repair Podcast!

In this episode, Dan and Rachel face off in a tractor guessing game. Our host gives them clues about a tractor—its features, specifications, history, and capabilities—and they have to figure out which tractor he's describing.

But don't listen passively! See if you can guess the tractor before Dan and Rachel do.

This episode is a little different from our usual repair discussions, but it's a fun way to test how well you know some of the tractors we've talked about and worked on over the years.

How many can you get right?
