"It's the same size as a car to park" this Case tractor dwarfs the King Country News office.
The King Country News Office in Te Kūiti had a supersized visitor when contractor Rob Burgess pulled up in this Case 200 CVT – obviously top of its field.
Why bring that much horsepower to town? He had to drop off a muck spreader, (unless he was pulling our legs).
The digger/bulldozer/tractor driver is working on Ranginui Station near Mangakino and said it took him two hours to drive to town at 50km/h.
“It was fine, there’s not too much traffic on the road today,” he said. “It’s nice doing 50ks along the road, you get to see the countryside.”
And the most important question – did the parking gods smile on him? Yes indeed – and that’s not really a ‘turnip’ for the books, it’s just one of the many reasons people love the King Country town.
