Here's the thread from Red Power, lots of pictures. Red heavy obviously but all brands represented. https://www.redpowermagazine.com/forums/topic/164730-hcop-2025-pics/

The fella that brought this to the show was with our clan and roomed with us.He's a life time farmer from our area and one of the nicest guys you ever want to meet and talk to.Probably one of the more unique pieces at the show and fully functional.

Talking with a friend last night and we said we should go next time. One question. If you take a side x side or gator to the show, does a tank of gas last all day running around that place.

We took our Honda 1000 Pioneer a couple years ago and had plenty gas in the tank but we went prepared and had an extra 5 gallon in the truck if we needed it. Makes it nice for carrying extra water, sandwiches and snacks too. To much going on at the farm this year with sweetcorn to sneak away.

We ran around Wednesday afternoon, Thursday, and Friday on one tank of gas in a JD Gator. If you're going for the whole show an extra 5 gallons would be a good idea.

Oliver66farmboy has a long video on YouTube from rantoul (I haven’t watched it yet) it’s probably a little Oliver centric but his videos are usually pretty good ( if he doesn’t go off on a rant about politics).

I stopped by the AC tent on Friday and talked to a couple people. Tent was crowded but I must not have been there at the right time for a picture. Said hi to Chuck with the AC Partners group. The wife bought a new orange shirt for herself.

I was at Rantoul until Sunday morning. My 220 fwd was to the right as walked into the tent. We have a group picture and another of the 220 fwd owners but not a forum or facebook group picture.
