Mornin',

Well, in fairness to the guys who are playin' the farmin' game for real, they do indeed have a point.

To me, these old tractors are just toys, but to them tractors are tools and they just cannot be "down" for repairs for any reason.

When I quit farming, I was running 7 farms and the annual budget would bounce around the $200K mark. Guys tell me that now, they are playing with figures that I can't even get my head around.

With that kind of money, downtime is a major expense and I can certainly understand where they would want brand new equipment.

My ol' pee brain won't even go to the sandbox where these guys are playin' nowadays. :>)
