I know any piece of machinery needs a little bit of engineeering to make it sucessful, but that many switches, buttons, and guages in any machine is just wrong. Used to me you had to know what you wre doing to run a piece of equipment. Nowdays they've tried to engineer the human equation out and make the machine do all of the work. I guess it's just all part of the dumbing down of the human species.......Ever see the movie Idiocracy, with Luke Wilson, or the animated WALL-E movie? Both movies were a bit exagerated but given the current trends in technoligy I can see humans being nearly there in the not too distant future.

On another note, if my experience with the 9930 Deere cab I'm using in my latest project is any indication, just wait until there are problems with any of it. I've called three different Deere dealerships and Deere itself and so far can not even get anyone to tell me what wires go to what in the top of the cab. There are only 6 of them and they are all color coded and numbered....finally figured them out on my own.... Then there are the ones going to the instrument cluster. Again, only a handful of color coded wires, and nothing. The dealerships say there is no actual wiring diagram for any of it, and the guy at Deere called back two days later and left a message saying he had found a little bit of stuff but then it "got really complicated". How complicated can a set of electric guages get? Ok, I say that, but I will admit I figured out all of the guages themselves, but have yet to figue out the deal with the high hydraulic temp and air filter restriction lights. Can't get the air filter to even light up (and I know the bulb is good), and the hydraulic lights up several different ways.
AQnyone got any ideas??????

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: How to Remove a Broken Bolt - by Staff. Another neat discussion from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. The discussion started out with the following post: "I have an aluminum steering gear housing with a bolt broken off in it. The bolt is about a 3/8" x 1 1/2" bolt. I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t ... [Read Article]
