    Hard To Believe

    I've got a '67 Z28 that I bought in 1972 for $1500. My dad made fun of me then because I "got ripped off". By the late '70's it was worth maybe $1200. In the '90's I decided to do a full restoration. I invested another $5500 and my wife had a flippin' FIT. About 3 years ago, I went through it...

    Do animals think evil thoughts?

    We've got 3 dogs and 4 birds. (Conure's, a type of small parrot) One is the sweetest thing on earth MOST of the time, but on occasion get's what is best described as the "angry bird" look on its face. When it does, watch out. Someone is gonna get bit. She attacks the other birds, or bites me...

    what is your favorite tractor

    I've got a '71 Massey Ferguson 150 diesel that's hands down my favorite. Owned it since new. Also have a 4440 Deere that's been here since it was about 2 years old. Looks like it'll outlast me. Just recently bought a 7830 Deere that I'm taking a real shine to.

    Re: Why did the Fast-Hitch fail?

    Nonsense.... Didn't happen. Sounds like the typical Binder faithful excuse/bash Deere kinda comment. Patents are now expired. If the fast hitch was as wonderful as some people try (unsuccessfully) to portray it, the design would find it's way back into the market.

    No till

    I started no tilling in the mid 80's. By '91, was 100% no till. My yields match or exceed that of my neighbor who is still 100% conventional tillage. It takes a full commitment to the practices of no tilling. There are also hybrids that do much better than others. Just "trying no till"...

    A comment on my Toyota Tundra query

    If nothing else is clear after this thread, it is the fact that bigoted, self centered, close minded people will NOT buy a Toyota. Other than that, We're all good.

    John deere 71 planter

    During the latter years of the JD71, Deere contracted with Yetter to build the #71 units. I don't recall off the top of my head exactly when Yetter started building them, but it was somewhere in the late '70's. When Deere dropped the #71's from their product line, Yetter bought sales rights...

    A comment on my Toyota Tundra query

    You will hear Toyota owners bragging on them. FACT. You will find most Toyota owners buying another Toyota when it's time to buy another vehicle. FACT. ps I fly Old Glory on the pole in my yard, own several John Deere's, a Harley, and served in the U.S. Army. I just refuse to buy junk...

    Anyone offer an opinion on Toyota Tundra trucks?

    Camry's built right down the road from me in Georgetown Kentucky. A large part of the support industries that build parts for the Camry are within a 50 mile radius of Georgetown.

    Anyone offer an opinion on Toyota Tundra trucks?

    And prior to that, Tundra's were built in Princeton Indiana.

    Anyone offer an opinion on Toyota Tundra trucks?

    The cynics and the haters will spew forth their "opinions", but they're pretty much worthless as far as opinions go. (Based on anything EXCEPT facts) We use quite a few pick ups in a business I own. (Currently have 9 on the road) Over the past 35 years, I've owned dozens of Fords, Chevy's...

    Receiver hitches

    If it were a law, it should be known as the Shin Protection Law. I can live with a dent in my bumper, but a trailer hitch to the shin....Well....That's another story entirely.

    Old iron verses newer iron???

    I've got quite a collection of older family tractors too. Some date back to before WWII. 3 of my dads tractors, 2 that belonged to an uncle who farmed with dad, and a few others. I use them on the farm for moving wagons, occasionally running an auger, doing some light mowing, and in general...

    Old iron verses newer iron???

    Quite a few of those who post here are more or less "hobby farmers". For those guys, it's hard to justify new equipment. For those who farm on a bigger scale, it's just as hard to justify old equipment. As hard as it is for some people to admit, there are quite a few bigger, more modern...
