The Tractor Danger That I Wish I Had Taken Seriously
In this video, Tractor Mike answers a viewer letter from Bob, who asked a simple question: does adding a canopy to a tractor make the engine and PTO noise any louder? To find out, I downloaded a decibel meter to my phone and ran a real-world sound test at idle and again at PTO rated engine speed, both with and without my Rhinohide removable canopy installed.

The Old Glory story is more than a piece of machinery or project, it’s a reflection of our commitment to veterans and to the enduring spirit that keeps America moving forward.
