They must be, we didn`t give a s--t and treated them saws bad. They went on to clear cut 80 acres of black spruce, all small diameter trees under 12" but they were tall,60' or more and limbs right from around 8' off the ground all the way up. Them saws limned like banshees.....LOL
Jim you can get a bigger tractor for less money that will last you a very long time !

I know John. Big thing for me is we farm a decent a amount here, enough to where I spend most of my free time in the summer on a tractor and when I have my cows here in the winter there is always tractor work on the weekends. All of the machines here are old, tired and not mine. I never know when I will have one or not. The big International I have here needs a few grand put into it and I just can't justify putting that into a machine that's over 40 years old and will most likely cost a lot more before it's all said and done. Not to mention there's a good chance that once it's back up to snuff it'll get yanked, that's an explanation we'll save for the gtg. I pretty much want new for the warranty and because I want a machine that is starting fresh and has a few more creature comforts like heat and AC. We're planning on paying a few bills before all of this takes place so that we won't be put in a bind. I figure I have to free up about $700 a month to get her a newer vehicle and to get me a tractor. I went through the bills tonight and I can't believe how many tiny payments go out every month that add up to a lot of money. Most of the balances are small but the payments and interest are crazy. That led to a serious talk with my wife about not using them effin things or else. We'll get there.
Sure got quiet in here ?
Everyone musta fell asleep !

Not yet.
You don't have to get a real old used one. But I know that warranty is nice .
I am back, big kitty is here with me trying to keep me from typing on the keyboard, he has grown again.
I might have just fell.

I've never had a new truck, I have an old three wheeler and the list goes on. Be nice to have something like that from new. I'm pretty gentile with equipment and something like that should last me a long time.
How you feeling?
How big is he now ?
My sister has one that is half Main Coon she is trying to get me to take. Nope ! 4 is too many now ! LOL
I understand that ! LOL
Not feeling to bad right now , just seem to get tired easy. Like now ! LOL Bout ready to lay down. LOL
He is over 20 lbs now and about makes up for 3 cats. He is about the nicest looking Maine Coon I have seen yet, and strong as a small bear.

You made a pretty fast recovery so far.
One Main Coon makes up for about 3 regular cats, the cats you have now would not really like a monster coming into the fold....LOL

Didn't think of that either ! No way I will take it anyway. LOL
OK , its Slug time !
