    What happened to pickups??

    I had a 2001 F150 I retired (sold to my son) when it was about 20 years old. Was overall the most dependable I've ever owned. Didn't like a lot of the options to replace it. I ended up with a low miles F250 extended cab and long bed that had been in a fleet lease deal, since at the time I...

    House full of mosquito

    I've been throwing half of one of these in a rain barrel right outside the door for a couple of years. Never have any problems.

    Tried Something New

    Yes. Have electric but don't have it quite that close since usually just keeping deer out.

    Tried Something New

    I haven't tried any of the newer expensive sweet corn varieties, but planted a few rows of Ambrosia this year to make my wife happy. I like to plant truckers favorite for cornmeal and watch it get 12-14 ft tall, so I watched this stuff and wondered if it would make anything. Took a while, but...

    back pack sprayers

    Had one of these for years. Strap finally broke and the strainer was cracked, so instead of keeping it going I got another and kept the old one for parts. I've got a 16gal that goes on the atv and a 60 gal tow behind, but I use this one for most around the house/muscadine/ garden jobs...

    Cattle herds are at their lowest in 75 years.

    My wife has tried bees a couple of times and enjoyed it, but it is another expensive hobby (IMO) considering the time it takes to stay on top of any problems and that they can take off and be gone. I think she finally has given up on it. She has some friends who are very successful with them...

    Cattle herds are at their lowest in 75 years.

    I think many like me have a price they are willing to pay and what is available now is past that point. I bought some beef for burgers marked down that was cheaper than I've seen in a year or two. I used to eat ribeyes regularly, but thick pork chops will work. The last two times I made...

    Heat and Age

    That may have been a factor with me the other morning, since it was overcast and I didn't grab it as usual was only out for an hour or two and back in early. Hate wearing it because it makes me start sweating immediately and doesn't take long until my glasses are dripping, but the extra sweat...

    Heat and Age

    Be careful if you are getting old and live in an area with high temps this week. It never bothered me until one day when I got close to 60 I stayed on a tractor 6-7 hrs and felt fine....until I got off and started seeing stars. I was a couple of miles down the road and temp gauge in the truck...

    Looking for a tractor replacement

    Yes, general statement in regards to any brand with an ECU. Mine happened to be a 2020 NH Workmaster, but have heard the same thing about the others. I knew how crazy electronics were on cars, but it was a big shock going from older to newer tractors. My problem ended up being relays that...

    Looking for a tractor replacement

    Just an opinion, since I'm no expert, but do the research on any model interested in and figure out what year they started using proprietary software on a dealer's laptop to troubleshoot or reset/reprogram engine control modules and computers. Stay away from them. Spend less on something anyone...

    Deck wash port on mowers

    Anyone I've ever known who got paid to work on them said keep water away and if you think you need to clean a mower it use air.

    Looking into 3pt Tillers

    1st gear is plenty slow enough for my 135 to do a good hob. Creeps along slower than some others I've used it with.

    Looking into 3pt Tillers

    I'm using a 6 ft and most of the time it is hooked to a MF 135.
