It's winter and some of you are snowbound. Maybe you need a Fordson Snow-Motor to get you around. It's a little bit of an antique (1926) but it has a unique propulsion system. I wonder why it never caught on?

That was trick as sh*t Don.
I want to say that this type of propulsion has been introduced in a videogame that I'm playing. Apparently the tanks use this instead of tracks. Once I get the add-on I'll try and let you know.
