Got a good chuckle the other day as I read a local publication. I was checking out different dealer's advertisements when I came across this ad. I know it is a misprint but I thought I'd share the laugh; Farmall 560, power steering, live pto, and two point hitch, all for the bargain price of (are you ready for this) $49,050.

Looks like maybe we need to start buying up all of the 560s we can find before this trend really catches on. Let's see, buy it for $2,500, sell it for $49,000, even I might make a profit.

Hope so Rusty, we're gonna have to sink everything we can get into trucks to come out on Allan's hauling. Harley

Well there you go Harley, we'll just haul whatever Allan needs and then pick up a couple of 560s while we're out there, shoot, with those kinds of profits we could both buy a new truck.

People will be lining up to buy it! I always like it when the dealer advertises a piece of equipment and states below the picture, "won"t last long"! It just sounds kind of funny to me..... Paul

"Won't last long" is still the best.

I bought one of those one time, and sure enough, it didn't last very long.

Paul, I also get a kick out of the sales tactics like, "Only 3 days left" or "Don't miss this one". All the tricky little sayings to give you that proverbial, "Impending doom" feeling if you don't rush right down there and buy it.

What gets to me the worst is those who say, "Last chance before I part it out."
