    Question IA member?

    Are there NO other members from IA here?

    Default Another Iowa Member! (Cedar Falls)

    I just got mine on 1/03/2009. Too bad the weather wasn't better to drive it. I still got to get a feel of what is coming. 100% stock right now.

    I'm sometimes from Iowa..... (Clear Lake) and I lived in Cedar Falls for 25 years. All three kids and families live there. Spent Christmas there last week. Drove around Q cities on way back to Naples. Many of our close friends down here are from your area, ( retired John Deere execs.) They drive some of the coolest large tractors I've ever seen! (joke)

    Know how you felt.....We slid our way back fro Naples in our M6 GTO with a/s. Had to get it back up North. Fortunately got it to CL and picked up 4wd Denali XL which both goes and stops better on snow and ice. It's gas mileage was same or worse for trip than G8 in Oct.

    Do the tractors run and handle as well as the GT's? 3 out of the 4 in my family has retired from there. I'm the oddball!?!?!?!
