    I've got three Kenworths, I've got no money.
    And if I buckle and let the outfit talk me into moving their equipment and buy the 3+1 I'm looking at, I'll have even less.
    Oh, plus thinking of having Budco put one or two in their shop this winter.

    On this we completely agree, but you'll forgive me if I do it anyways, because as the saying goes, "When you wrestle with a pig, sooner or later you should realize that the pig actually enjoys it." - unknown author

    Not always. The little old Dresser loader at the quarry no A/C, windows don't open, you can bake a turkey in the cab the hot days. I don't have to run it, told him I'll break all the glass out first so his call.

    Yeah the 325 we got is sitting stretched out in front of the shop more than it's actually working. Just can't keep the hoses from pi ssing every where.

    I do a lot of work for a guy that owns a nearby ranch. He's cleaning out some buildings on some property he's selling and these were inside. A set of Chrysler TC Maserati cars. Both have under 20k on the odometer. PXL_20240805_225321611.jpg PXL_20240805_225347918.jpg

    Those hoods are big enough to have their own zipcode.

    The straw that broke the proverbial camels back was a drive motor issue that refused to be resolved. After having several mechanics tinker with it, and a little over $8k in bills, no improvement whatsoever, I said screw it. Down the road it goes. If any of you guys sees a nice looking Deere 325 on Auctontime in the near future, DONT BUY IT!!!!! I would love to put faces to all you fellows, but NOT when you came for that POS
