I debated this long and hard. There was hours of debation of if I liked one over the other. Hours of endless debation. I'd try to fall asleep at night, but I just couldn't do it because I felt I needed to debate it further.

No. That would be due to the fact that fields are unpredictable. You can have wash outs, drainage tile failures, dead deer, a tree wash in, all sorts of things you can't predict, so you have to be on the ready to shut crap down or move or stop if it goes to hell. Read more

Kind of. You run the same system when you plant, so that you will always line up with the rows. You will have a light bar that goes from red to green and some steering assist so that you will never venture out of the rows.

Sadly...no. They are front wheel drive with rear steering. They have just enough power to move under load. Hydraulically driven drivetrain (which means it doesn't really have "gears") leaves it kind of like a turtle. Read more

AAAAND now the race begins to make a body kit that fits this.

Oh Senna. I thought it was. And I was like. Oh, nevermind.

That story seems familiar. Oh Yes. It was me telling that to you. Hey, is that some celebratory NSFW?

Wait. When did Natalie Portman get carjacked? And why did she need a car donated to her?

Yes. Crops have to be taken from the field at a specific time, when the moisture content of the grain is suitable for storage. This is a very narrow window in the fall, and you cannot harvest some crops during high humidity or if it has recently rained. When it is time to go, you have to go and get as much as you… Read more

Yeager would have just landed on the A10's and swore at you guys for making him get a ladder to get out of the plane.

No, we know what it is. We just don't know what mac users call it.

A combine is far from heavy equipment. It is a full on grain processor on wheels, with thousands of moving parts. These are rolling piles of scrap. On our families farm we have tractors from the 40's and 50's we still use. The combine is 3 years old. Remember, this machine is responsible for making sure you get… Read more

The combines shown are worth nothing. They are too small for use and the guts inside are all wore out, so they are not able to be repaired. Plus, they are gas burners, and prone to catch fire and not very fuel efficient. With the way yields are these days you also couldn't even make it to the end of the field and… Read more

As one of the few persons in Jalopistan who has driven a combine or seen one of these, a combine has the engine up and high, so the weekness is in the rear steering linkage, which is really light weight.

1960 Chrysler as well was pretty darn sharp.
