The 50-Plus Room - for

[thør]

I think the diesel fuel got gummed up with how cold it’s been. It’s 50 years old, but the most reliable tractor I’ve ever owned.

If it won't turn over, it's not the fuel.

If it's gelled, you can add a little gasoline and that will thin it out.

Yep, upper midwest was common to see vehicles plugged in before EV's started showing up.

Been that way here since before I started driving.

I will say that the advent of decent synthetic motor oil in the 70's helped a lot.

Napalm, anyone?

You need glycerin for that.

But, if your tractor diesel has gelled, you can add some gasoline to it and it will run. Been there.

I was told denatured alcohol. I have done this a few times.

Happy to meet you all.

Over 50 here and vastly prefer men at least over 45, but preferably over 55.

Menopause and HRT has only heightened my sex drive.

Just got hard reading your post!

We talk about everything... last week it was civil war generals and how to cook the best ribs and this week was sheds and best time to pit one in. Just a great group of people. I am thankful for my lit friends. Welcome

Ty for the welcome. Nice to see it isn't all sex in here lol. Obviously some is good but we all live lives and do other stuff and have other wants, needs, hobbies, interests, etc.....

[Wh_te_er]

Haha.... glad u cleared it up

Sometimes the best thing to do on the coldest of days is to forget about the vehicle outside and just stay inside in the coziests of homes. Nice thing about being over 50 is being able to say “I’m too old for (fill in the blank).”

Did that at the cabin after Christmas when it was -30°F. Went outside for only essential things, like fetching firewood and performing bodily functions.

 

[Wh_te_er]

Yea well I guess rides would make sense for some posts.

 

[Marriedman61]

So is everyone in here just as horny as I am? Lol

 

[Biggalute]

Questions for people but mostly for the guys
Do you do social (partner) dancing?
If so what kind?
If not, do you wish you could? What stops you?

Im about to start a dance in my town, and would like to get some thoughts I do expect a significant 50 plus audience.

I’ve never been much for dancing, although I can get into some of the 60s dances with a group. I always feel way too conspicuous since I’m usually at least a few inches taller than anyone around me… plus I feel like I look like this:

Something about life has definitely changed lately. I keep noticing old people who are younger than I am.

I have a pin that says, “It’s weird being the same age as old people.”

 

[AlexBailey]

When did young people get so old?

Hello all, 58 yo, WWM that has had MMF play a couple times and really enjoyed it. I'm a computer guy, I have 14 grandkids, and love Sci-Fi. Not good with tractors though.
