Do Not Overload

/ Do Not Overload #12  
I've heard that anything like that happens, tranny goes or major engine problem like a turbo, that they dont even consider getting it fixed. They just get a new one. I think stuff like that goes for $2m plus, so a 30 year old vehicle may as well be replaced for that $3.4m.

Try to explain that to the boss. "Hey honey I need a new tractor, I tore the seat :eek: " next we hear the sounds of...... thud thud slap slap crash, Nope no new tractor this weak :p :D

A turbo is no major engine problem... it will cost 6 grand for a turbo that size, and half a day installing it, but not something to put a million or so, to the scrapyard.

Thanks! I thought it would be more than that, though. A turbo on a motor with that much hp just seems like a whoole lot.
