Oops, posted before I was ready to!

Anyhow, horrid photo sorry, I was driving when I took it and yes I realise that's stupid.

Anyhow, can anyone tell me what the heck this thing is? It looked like some sort of medieval war machine but it had a farm logo on the side. It was huge, took up more than one lane.

That is a grain combine. Probably set up for wheat

Thanks Chuck, I thought maybe a combine but they usually have blades and not that row of funnel-looking things. Certainly plenty of wheat grown around here though.

What Chuck said. It can also be modified to make an excellent (not really) snow removal machine :ROFLMAO::LOL:

LOL. That's funny, looks more fun than simply shoveling snow. I like Top Gear! My little brother got me into it. Have you ever seen the one where they unsuccessfully tried to kill a Toyota truck?

I'm posting from my phone and can't figure out how to paste a link here. :rolleyes: But its a fantastic episode.

The ones with the big blades in front are usually for corn. On some models the blades can be removed

Yeah, I've seen that one and all the others multiple times. BBC America is my go to TV channel and top gear UK my favorite show. Jeremy and the boys signed a deal for a similar show on Amazon after Jeremy punched his producer and BBC let him go. Looking forward to it!
