Looks like I might have to spend the night in the Greensboro area Sunday. Would likely arrive by 4pm. Anybody up for dinner?
Their girlfriends aren't even out there.
That's a lie. It was early afternoon.Dude! Laura told me she saw you at the restaurant last night.
Izzy that brake function is pretty common in a lot of applications, only manual. In 4x4 parlance they are cutting brakes, common in rock rigs. Farm tractors have it in the form of split rear brake pedal, push just one side and it turns on a dime.
I grew up as a "Citified" farm kid. We lived in town but Dad row crop farmed and raised turkeys and hogs at our farm about 10 miles outside of town. Our "big" tractor was an early 70's 4020 John Deere. I had considerable seat time on it as a teenager.

If you are pulling a disc or even something as light as a bush hog the weight is all on the rear tires. When you come to the end of a row and you need to turn, turning the steering wheel doesn't do much to change the direction you are going...the tractor will just continue to go straight and skid the front tires along until you push the brake on the inside rear wheel. A tractor would be useless without this dual brake feature.
