@PTx_Ag @ptx_trimble @PrecisionPlant To add to that we are able to apply exact flow rates per row and turn compensation adjusting flow rates per row for exact lbs or kg per acre per row. Using liquid pays for itself with row shutoff in contour. Cotton country in Texas. Love it!

@PTx_Ag @ptx_trimble @PrecisionPlant We run vApply HD modules on ours for Rx variable rate liquid fertilizer and row shutoff.

@lawrence_farms @robertreese_4 The kit also came with a replacement coolant overflow reservoir. It took them a lot of coolant system flushes but they got it fixed.

@lawrence_farms @robertreese_4 We had the same issue with our 13.5L S680 last wheat harvest. It had bad deadbolts. They were repaired at John Deere’s cost under the PIP Parts Improvement Program. That is a known issue with them. I’m not sure of your exact cause.

This old lady handed her bank card to the teller and said “I would like to withdraw $10”. The teller told her “for withdrawals less than $100, please use the ATM. The old lady wanted to know why... The teller returned her bank card and irritably told her “these are the rules, please leave if there is no further matter.

There is a line of customers behind you”. The old lady remained silent for a few seconds and handed her card back to the teller and said “please help me withdraw all the money I have.” The teller was astonished when she checked the account balance. She nodded her head, leaned down and respectfully told her “you have $300,000 in your account but the bank doesn’t have that much cash currently. Could you make an appointment and come back again tomorrow? The old lady then asked how much she could withdraw immediately. The teller told her any amount up to $3000. “Well please let me have $3000 now.” The teller kindly handed $3000 very friendly and with a smile to her. The old lady put $10 in her purse and asked the teller to deposit $2990 back into her account.

The moral of this story is.... Don’t be difficult with old people, they spent a lifetime learning the skill.

@FDGenetics I used to use colored coded zip ties before them.

@FDGenetics You definitely need Outback Raps!!! Some of our equipment used 5 SVC remotes and I can hook them up in a minute vs the old 30 minutes.

[Chad Halfmann @thechadmann]

@QShieldknight Awesome! We should finish today.

@FDGenetics I haven’t had much luck with Oreos and Chunky Chips ahoy

@farminthrufaith I’ve laid in the hospital after my 3rd back surgery thinking, wow it sure is nice to get some time off although I was still on the phone fielding work calls. Same goes for when I’m sick in bed at home. It’s not me, it’s working with one family member that doesn’t care.

@QShieldknight We love our Kuhn Kraus Gladiator! I added a Montag steerable liquid cart with Precision Planting Pump Stack behind it and Precision Planting vApply HD Flex modules and put out variable rate prescription with it.

@FDGenetics I’ve only ever had my boat towed in on the coast of Texas by an airboat. I plan on a night flounder gigging trip this year. Glad y’all had fun!

@FDGenetics Has horns used for checking for oil !

[Chad Halfmann @thechadmann]

@FDGenetics @Cornfrmr Same here. The place I’m actually on at the moment had three dead cows with twine in their stomachs when we got the place because the previous old rancher set bales out without removing twine.

[Chad Halfmann @thechadmann]

@winsomefarms Ours is in need of replacing. I’m going back with Rumber. https://t.co/JwERf7kTXW
