    Really, really dumb question about difference between off road and on road diesel fuel.

    This is part of the instructions for reimbursement for farm use or off road diesel. (You are the claimant on this paperwork) Caution: Claimant has the name and address of the person who sold the fuel to the claimant and the dates of purchase. For claims on lines 1c and 2b (type of use 13 or...

    Really, really dumb question about difference between off road and on road diesel fuel.

    Out here, they have proposed a big change and you're not going to like it. The proposal is no more keeping off-road diesel separate. Instead, ALL diesel will be taxed at the higher rate up front and then you apply for reimbursement. If you buy 500 gallons for your off road tractor, forklift...

    Another tractor manufacturer out of business?

    @Rustyiron, do you remember when corded electric lawn mowers were all the rage? You could buy spindles that stuck in the ground so the extension cord didn't get dragged over your flower beds. Thank you for posting that, WM75Guy. If you'll allow me to get my geek on: Stephen Heckeroth is the...

    You "Road" Your Tractor?

    That's why I enjoy coming on here. Many of these threads bring back great memories. And speaking of great memories-- The volunteer fire department asked me to mow along both sides of the road that runs past the station. I had a Ford 8n at the time and said, "I'm always happy to help, but...

    The one thing that you wonder why you didn't buy sooner?

    High quality flashlights. Always bought cheaper ones, thinking "The kids will lose it before I break it, so might as well get a cheap one." High quality flashlights are definitely worth the extra money.

    The Life of a Custom Mowing contractor

    Thank you, Hay Dude, for sharing. I agree with others who tell you that there are things in your pictures that we never new existed. When you say hydraulic brakes on the baler, to you mean wrapping net brakes, or wheel brakes?

    Auto dealer maintenance upselling

    I bolded that part about the 4-way gas monitor. The kid was working on a frac near our house and forgot his lunch. Asked me to bring it for him, and since it was so close I drove his 1978 pickup to show it off for his friends. We stood around the truck talking for a bit, and then I started...

    Auto dealer maintenance upselling

    A caution on air filters. We used to be trained to open the box and inspect the air filter. Our latest training is NOT to do this, because it's so easy for tiny particles to get into that box. Instead, the latest training is go strictly by mileage. If it's due for replacement then replace...

    Is anybody else saddened just by reading this?

    Buying Advice Auctions?

    This is one example of how efficient our economy is. The auction company near us has a business relationship with a metal scrapper. At the end of each auction, the scrapper comes in and picks up any "No Sales" and hauls them off for scrap. He gets this for free. The flip side of this is he...
