It really can pull stumps
So today my M37 earned it's keep a little bit, in my wife's eyes. I used it to pull a stump left from a tree broken by a winter storm. I have used my M1008 in the past to pull a stump, and I could feel it working...although it wasn't working too hard. This one came out so easy I thought the chain had slipped off! The M37 sure has some pulling power. H.

Re: It really can pull stumps
My wife said something really unusual tonight as she came home. She said "That sure is a cute truck, it looks older than 1953". In shock, I said "You like it?" She said yes, and that it looks like I am having fun when I drive it. All I can say is....... Wow!
Re: It really can pull stumps
If she called it "cute" then you'll probably be allowed to keep it. It MAY also mean the truck (and you) have been forgiven and you may be able to spend money on it now (instead of just time).
Congratulations!
Congratulations!

Re: It really can pull stumps
WOW!! I ALWAYS LIKE HAPPY STORIES!!! GOOD FOR YOU AN YOUR M FRIEND!!!
MY WIFE NEVER LIKED MY M37. ACTUALLY, I THINK SHE HATED IT. OH, WELL... 13 YEARS LATER, MY TRUCK STILL "MAKES" HISTORY, WHILE MY WIFE "IS" HISTORY LOL
