Hahahaha awesome. Is that cummins or a Hemi?
Its a cummins. We were taking the bins off of the ground, and putting them on cement, where they belong, and put all the skids on the gooseneck trailer. Thought it would get a few laughs.

I heard that muffman got a window smashed in his truck, and a neighbor of his had his peterbilt sitting outside, and hail went right through the hood. :eek:

Well I havn't been on here in forever, but this morning I went out and bought me a new holland 316 square bailer, with a thrower, and two really nice 18 foot thrower wagons too. Bailer looks like it's brand new, the wagons are all steel, mesh tailgate with 2x6 floor. Think I got a good deal on it, went in three ways with my dad and my brother. We got 50 acres we can bail, what do you guys sell a good straw bail for? And if you were doing custom work for hay how much would you charge a bail to bail it? Something like 40 cents? This is my first peice of equipment and I need somewhere to start, hopefully it ain't a whole lot different price range in Alberta than Ontario haha.

Just dropped my header at Deere to get a full finger table auger like that put on my header. Should help for yellow mustard which can be a pain to feed I'm hoping.

Youll LOVE it. No more "slug" feeding. We did the same to our old 930F. What an improvement!

Yeah last year for some reason it just wouldn't feed properly and then it would all go in at the same time. The old rotor was making noises that were not good. Lol.

Lol. I love running combine in tough beans, it growls, moans, and the constant hammering of the beans hitting the rotor. Ahhhhhh, music to my ears! :D
