I know there is a lot of people work this hard. When I was a kid we scooped corn into some of the cribs. But the wagons just held 100 bu. and generally were two of us. Now days cleaning out a grain bin is a long hot job and the truck holds 1000 bu. And there is always something that doesn't work right. Need to be a electrical and mechanical genuis. Plus deal with GPS. I think my SIL and SON work harder than I do or did. Just different. Vic
