@rhofford He was an older fella, kinda hung up his hat after that. There weren’t many smiles that day. You can see the windows were dirty from the engine fan running in the water.
@bigmothufacking I run a 570 dt. Pulls a vaderstad 80-12 with 980 cart easily. Deleted it and averaged .35 gallons per acre across the farm last season. Zero issues with it and far more dependable than my last CNH tractor
Wonder why farmers are shitting themselves when they aren't getting the rains? This gives you a pretty good idea.
In the past 13 years farmer inputs have increased by 68%
Equipment costs up 75%
Commercial seed up 49%
Fertilizer prices have doubled.
This is not sustainable.
@BDuchek I have had to replace the brass fitting that comes off the fuel pump on the fuel supply line. It had a hairline crack in it and it was bleeding back.
@RonKrahn I’m pulling super b’s with 3.55’s and super 40’s with 22.5 rubber. Works fine, we come out of fields with them too, rarely split the bottom end on a 18 spd. Think about what you’re doing and you won’t have a problem. 👍
