			For sure...not too many Farmers are impressed with $100,000 cars.  They prefer much more expensive machinery.

			Nothing runs like a Deere. I sent this to my farmer B.I.L. he hates green. I'm the rebel here as I drive a Dodge truck, not a Ford truck, and I have a green tractor. I rub his nose in it every chance I get. All in fun of course.

			And....... the genetically-engineered grain contained little or no nutritional value.   
		
	
		
	
			
			
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	-Like Nestle formula in a baby bottle, the consumer ate and ate and ate but couldn't get anything out valuable of the meal other than calories, which only made him fat. -Meanwhile, the lack of needed nutrients eventually caused organ and other bodily problems-which required the consumer(now labeled patient) to exit the labor-pool and seek unavailable treatment. Eat those dollars up kids, they are the best food available.  |

We had Deeres on our farm. All B series tractors (B, 50, 520). I liked them. The 50 was "my" tractor. Then I worked for a farmer with a Farmall M and I thought that was the tits until he bought a JD 3020. I spent many many hours on that thing. It really sold me on John Deere.

			I'd like an old B myself, but it's way too much tractor for what I need. An M would be nice but for now my 330D is just fine.

Nobody I know got their combine free from the gubbment.  They pay by the acre to have it done. Small farmers just can't pay that much for big equipment.
