No one is making me choose anything, but I am not going to make my house look like a wrecking yard either.
If I trade the wrecker on a tractor I can tow the tractor with my pop's truck and trailer or my dad in law's combo. I don't want to ditch Brutus, but having an old farm tractor to use for pulls during the summer (and there are a shocking number of them within a 100 mile radius of my house) would be neato and if I can score one that comes with a plow blade of removable bucket loader on it, I could be Mr. Plow again in my neighborhood over the winter.
Just thinking out loud. I thought it was cool she brought it up!That which you manifest is before you.

I personally, would rather have a tractor anyday. So much back-breaking work can be done with even a small tractor!
A friend told me I was delusional! I almost fell off my unicorn.

She thinks your tractors sexy.
I bet you would get more fun out of an old JD/Oliver/Ford/IH/Farmall than you ever will with the wrecker...the wrecker is cool but man, the fun potential with the family at he pulls, plus the boys could pull in a few years...memories...dude, I'd be on that like stink on shit.

And I ask what would be the bigger conversation piece, the Wrecker or a tractor.......Unless the tractor you want to get is something special, like the wrecker is I'd stick with the wrecker......

I learned to drive on an old Allis. Mom's got pics of me at age 6 driving it with a big ass hay trailer behind it...

Why not the best of both worlds? Keep the wrecker and get THIS tractor. From an email I got from a guy in Ontario.

Braub, you like tractors. That's Okay with me. More importantly, it seems your old lady is Okay with it too. Go ahead, start looking and get yourself a tractor. If you think about it, certainly you can see that you deserve a nice tractor, and like you said, pullin' with it could be an exciting family activity.
