@farmerjim13 We got a used set of 90mm cylinders from ASAP in Bridgeport 2 years ago. Half the price of new

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@LeonardSeeds @LGSeeds That’s what most of our acres got planted to this year again. Hard to beat it

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@BuffaloAgLtd I found 3 big horseshoes in one half section last fall drilling wheat

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@BrianBjork That looks sharp

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@cornelissenfarm How big is your building! It’s massive!

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@JonathanDansel There’s a 12 row stacker Case IH on Big Iron in Yuma, Colorado that is in good shape. He’s a friend of ours and takes good care of his equipment.

@farmerjim13 We went from a 2388 to a 7120 and we are sure glad we went to the flagship design. Our 7120 was really short of power at first and my brother adjusted the waste gate in the turbo and now it’s great! You won’t regret it.

@colocornfarmer We have a 7120 combine and we adjusted the waste gate in the turbo and that helped a lot.

New to the air drill game but so far I’m lovin it

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

Got the first drill going today! Nice to be planting into moisture this year

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@mmbellos It’s a rain gauge. It measures how much rain you get

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

This was sure a welcome surprise this morning

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@aimonas1 NE Colorado

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@44Bridger We are the same way but we are just ready to plant winter wheat so it was a godsend for us

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@andrewjgeer We had a tire on a tandem truck do the same thing and the truck had been sitting for 6 months. Looked just like your tire too!!

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@tmonteIH I have a neighbor that has 2 860s and headers. He keeps talking that he’s going to put them on big iron. Located in NE Colorado

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@Storm5farms You’re lucky. We can’t get our winter wheat up it’s so dry. Haven’t had a good rain since May.

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@Jones6807 @markvoth1 Some days not enough, some days way too much. Just depends

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@ajw545 We run older crustbusters with shaft monitors and they do good for us.

[Derek Whittington @DerekWhittingt6]

@ECSeeds @LGSeeds That’s our go to hybrid up in NE Colorado too. I’ve picked 120 bushel 2475 planted at 10k
