Thanks John! Much appreciated on a morning where I feel a lot beat up and a little down in the dumps! It is not going to make me or break me if 40 acres of picking corn produces half rate. But you are right, I really care. It makes a difference to me. I ride a desk for a lot of the year so none of this comes easy. Parents grew up on farms and filled my head full of this stuff. I grew up next to a farm and was snake fascinated with everything that went on there. I like old cars but when I got the SMTA and started doing hay way back when it was true love. That was no easy ride either. Just ask me how I feel about JD #5 mowers and I will tell you to take off the bar and caster wheel, attach a chain, and drop it into the lake. Great anchor point for swim raft or sailboat! So now I use an old IH 990...nothing here much younger than 30 years. I do a good job with hay now and have a regular customer base. Just got to step up to the plate and keep swinging...sooner or later you hit a home run! So whatever happens this year, next year I will be right back at it.

I have 9 tractors now. The SMTA is still my favorite but the 1586 is an amazingly versatile tractor. 19K lbs and it can spin on a dime like a hippo in a tutu and head right back down the field. Thanks again for all your help!
