If you find the 54" mower deck on your tractor is too wide for some spots in the yard. Instead of looking for a smaller deck for that tractor, you start looking for an additional tractor with a narrower deck, you might be an MTF-neck.

Then you start to think about putting a lean to for it on the other side of your shed, the one side without a lean to, you might be an MTF-neck.
 
I think we should make it more colorful. You might be a MTF RED Neck if you own a _______, or a MTF GREEN Neck if you own a _______ and a MTF BLUE Neck If you own a _______, and so with the other colors. I think you can fill in the blanks, some colors will have a few different brands.

The sad part is that as soon as I read the one about living in florida or texas and owning a snowblower, I thought "hey! Larry lives in Texas and has one for Old Girl!"
 
Ya, I remembered reading about it but couldn't remember which MTF member it was. I was going to go with Texas first then second guessed myself. Glad you appreciated it Larry!
 
No problem. I think I fit in 90% of all the previous posts. Gotta push for the other 10%.
You might be an MTF-neck if... your relatives recognize your addiction.

-Your beer fridge is painted green and yellow.

-You're proud of how big your rear-end is.

-You list off your tractors and 20 minutes later you remember 10 more.
 
It matters to you and you know what year each tractor and attachment was manufactured, and who made it, you may be an MTF-neck.

You have a list of each tractor, which belts, filters, blades, fluids, and spark plugs it takes, and you keep it tucked away in your wallet so you always have it with you, in case you run into a deal, you may be an MTF-neck.

If you can tell which neighbor is cutting their grass by the sound of the tractor w/o seeing it.

All my neighbors' mowers sound similar. They're new husqvarnas, cubs, craftsman, etc. new neighbor just moved in has a single cylinder ranch king with what sounds like a gear tranny. That one I can pick out.

I mow with either a wheelhorse with single cylinder old school Kohler, a Massey Ferguson SCUT with a three cylinder Iseki diesel, or my latest acquisition Kubota T1600 with a two cylinder Dihatsu diesel. All three have VERY distinctive exhaust notes, needless to say.
 
If the parts guy at the dealer knows instantly who you are... over the phone
that happened to me, I was working on a co-workers 208 & needed a belt, I called my JD dealer with part number, never gave my name, he said he had it in stock. so when I got there I was fourth in line. when the parts guy seen me he said " come get your belt and go pay cashier"

Back in college, I delivered pizzas (worked at the same place for many years). Many of the regulars I could identify by voice. I knew what they usually ordered, their address and what to expect for a tip...

You check craigs list along the route your going to travel in case you find a tractor or implement to buy.
I did this just this weekend...on my way down to Massachusetts, and on my way home. I even checked if there was anything to get if I went an alternate route through New Hampshire
