OK, I hear you. Not sure if it applies in my case, though. This tractor is use for tillage only, the hard work that gets it good and hot for 8 hours a stretch. I've just spent about 16 hours working down my fields... and in this clay, that tractor is getting a good workout!!! Anyway, it's doing that, or it's parked. I have a smaller, more fuel efficient tractor I use for the light work. I'm also trying to keep the hours down on the big one too. It's just about to turn 8,200 hours. I want it to last until I hang up my farming spurs. With only 50-60 hours a year, it just might! BTW, not sure if you remember my TA questions from last year, but this year, it hasn't missed a beat and I've been using it a lot more. I keep finding new opportunities to use it. Like sliced bread, man! Also, still holding at about 4.25 GPH working hard. Even better in fact. Put in 27 gallons after 6.5 hours work chisel plowing yesterday. Oil consumptions is down too. Just one quart in 16 hours. That's less than 30 percent of what it was when I first got it.
