5.00 gasoling would not bother me if I only needed 5 or 10 gallons to filler up. but farmers trucks need 25-30 gallons. they cant go to a hybrid truck as there is not one that can provide the same power on 1/10th the fuel. Prople who live in town might be able to say as long as its under 5 bucks it don't bother me. and as for a raise at work? i think we all know how that one goes. So seriouly we need to figure out a way to get sustainable fuel at resonable cost other wise eventually the farmers who raise crops for the world will stop farming if they lose so much money on fuel they cant make a buck. if the price of crops has to go up so farmers can stay in bussiness less and less people will be able to buy food. then people will expect the government to feed them. Well i'm off topic about tractors and i'm sorry but it is very unreasonable to have to put $80.00 in to fill up my wifes van and $90 to fill my truck. I cant even go boating unless i wann buy 57 gallons and that would not last 2 days on the river. it would not last 1 day if you run it enough. somthings going to have to give. As far as corn for alcohol... thats nice but there are other crops that can give us more ethonal per acher than corn. like grasses. you can turn grasses into alcohol. I would rather pay midwest farmers then mideast oil producers.

My Papaw had a 1954 IH Super A that he bought to replace a Cub. My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to
