Growing up on the farm, I had plenty of experience seeing old tractors in the fields and watching farmers enjoying driving their old tractors at nearby tractor ride festivals. So, to honor all the hard working farmers everywhere, I thought I should add this carefully made riding tractor to my product offerings. It is authentic looking and drives very well. I am delighted to offer it.
So, take yours on long tractor rides over mainland roads. Think of your adventures as "next level touring at 12 miles an hour!"
The over the farm fields and open road speed is controlled with a seven-speed transmission (gear speed) so you can can choose to travel at reasonable speeds according to field and road conditions. Forward speeds are: 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 16, and 20. Reverse speed is 5. Use the on-screen motion controls jump up and crouch down to change gear speed, or use keyboard page up/down keys also.
To operate, just use the on-screen motion controls jump up and crouch down to change gear speed, or use keyboard page up/down keys also.
The steering quickness of this tractor has been adjusted carefully so as to avoid quirky over sensitivity, yet allowing you to turn quickly when you need to. This allows for a more normal tractor driving feel, yet the turning radius is sharp enough that you can get out of small spaces more easily.
Set cruise control by keying "hold" or "release" in open chat or /88 private chat.
The headlights work with the SL advanced lighting system. Be sure to activate advanced lighting in graphics tab of your viewer preferences to see this feature. Touch the yellow button near the steering wheel to turn the lights on and off. You will hear an electronic confirmation sound when you touch this button.
Touch the seat to hear a friendly "beep beep" which may prove useful if you go on mainland tractor rides with friends (I highly recommend doing this).
Touch the umbrella to make it visible or invisible as desired.
You will notice exhaust smoke begin and the idle sound when you sit to ride the tractor. The exhaust stops when you stand. Touch the red stop-start button anytime you want to start or stop the engine.
This tractor contains a resize script so you can easily adjust the size of the vehicle to your liking. Just touch the PTO flywheel on the right side of the tractor to get the resize menu on your viewer screen. You can also adjust your seating position by using the on-screen AVsitter menu when you sit to drive the tractor.
When you sit to drive you see a view behind the driver. To select more interesting and useful views key "v1" for a view just behind the tractor, "v2" for a nice view just behind the driver, "v3" for the driver's view of the fields or roads ahead, "v4" for view ahead from just above engine cover, and "v5" for view from just above and behind the tractor. You can use open chat to key commands to the tractor or use private channel 88.
Now you are ready to have fun working in farm fields or exploring the mainland or other roads with your new Larsson Model 88 Row Crop Tractor!
Once you are underway you can begin finding other new and fascinating roads and highways all over the mainland. The road ahead seems endless and there are always new buildings, shops, cafes, gas stations, and vistas of all kinds to discover on your tractor rides.
Be sure to organize a tractor ride with friends soon!

Perfection - This tractor is superb 10 stars
This tractor is superb and was just what I wanted. It drives really well, at a sensible speed and manoeuvrers superbly. If there were a 10 star rating I would give it.
The detail is excellent, and the price makes it very good value.
The re-size script means you can adjust the tractor to your avi size too.
I contacted Miss Larsson, the Creator, before purchase and she could not have been more helpful. Obviously a very capable and caring Creator who makes lovely items.
You can buy with confidence from this Creator.
Thank you for this.
