Dad went today to see a neighbor, who used to be a farmer. He has sold most of his equipment so far, but told dad he still had his old grain truck. Dad asked what he wanted for it, and he said he'd take $700 for it! It's an F600. He told dad he hadn't used it since 2012, but had started it up a couple times a year up until about 2 years ago. Dad said he had to prime it with a shot of gas in the air cleaner to get it to start, but it took right off, and runs exceptionally well for how old the gas in it is. It does need a small bit of work, but nothing too complicated. It needs a new exhaust pipe on one side, and dad would like to get a couple more quiet mufflers for it, and it has a leaking wheel cylinder, so dad intends on replacing all the brake lines and wheel cylinders and shoes while he is in there. All of the brake parts are available from our local CarQuest. It also needs a good bath! Dad thinks the grain door on the rear is ridiculously small (it is), so he is going to make it so that the entire rear gate will dump and add a much larger grain door. Has a real stout rear hitch as well, hopefully it has enough power to pull a gravity wagon. It has a 361XD, at least that's what the valve covers say. We only have to haul about 8 miles, and we only take the back roads when pulling a gravity wagon, so it should do just fine. I'll probably use it to haul a little bit of firewood as well. All of the tires are in very good shape. It has just over 29,000 miles on it. You can never have too many grain haulers!

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
