Dad still has a 20X60 and a 20X90 standing on the farm, but they haven't been used in years. If I remember right, Dad built the 20X90 for $80,000 in 1991. We fed a 60 head herd out of them & the feed stayed fresh. There's a sealed door on the front of the unloader to keep the air out after each use.
