Several have a much higher opinion of dealership "techs" than I do. $15 to swap a bulb is overpaid for some of the ones I have encountered, and they would be lucky to put a bulb in without messing something else up. I guess I have had far too many butchered jobs even on warranty work. Don't get me wrong, I know like every occupation there are good and bad, but i seem to get the winners. I had a rattle in the door on a new pickup, and rather than have the dealer rebuild the engine to fix a rattle in the door, I took the door panel off and fixed the rattle and saved myself the trouble. On another pickup I had a window that refused to roll up correctly (manual windows, under factory warranty) all the way, and when I picked it up not only did the window still not roll up correctly, the door was now misaligned - service manager said the window was caused by misaligned door (yeah, right). They did fix the window before I left, but I ended up realigning the door myself rather than drive an hour, leave it, drive another hour, and risk it still not be right. I guess it would not be nearly as bad if I were not an hour from the closest dealership so it is a very big deal if I have to return a second time for the same problem or worse, another problem caused by the tech (that infuriates me).

Today's Featured Article - A Belt Pulley? Really Doing Something? - by Chris Pratt. Belt Pulleys! Most of us conjure up a picture of a massive thresher with a wide belt lazily arching to a tractor 35 feet away throwing a cloud of dust, straw and grain, and while nostalgic, not too practical a method of using our tractors. While this may have been the bread and butter of the belt work in the past (since this is what made the money on many farms), the smaller tasks may have been and still can be its real claim to fame. The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
