GB = Grain Box
RH = Rear Hoist, dumps out the back (this is kinda nice unless you like to
scoop out 300+ cubic feet of grain every time it gets filled up!)
4 & 2 speed = 4 speed transmission and a two speed axel. (this is necessary
to move the 300 cubic feet of grain from the field to the place that you
would be scooping it out if you don't have a RH or SH) [SH is usually used
for beets and the bed would be a BB]
Wench = never mind
