Amen!!
Here's a typical situation: I know where there is a still useable/refurbishable JD B. But the family says it was "Dad's first tractor; he bought it when he started farming in 1949." Well, Dad's been dead for 12 years, the tractor has been just sitting, and the family can't make up it's mind about selling it. No one in the family really wants it to use; they just want to keep it because it was Dad's first tractor. OK-no problem, but again, no one wants to keep it, use it, or fix it up, so it just sits, deteriorating a little every day. And no, they wouldn't consider $1000.00 for it, even though that is probably more than it is really worth because of some things that really need attention. So....they will just let it sit and be offended by the next person who offers them fewer $$$ next year and eventually it will rust into the ground or find its way to a boneyard. Sad but typical...
