To every owner who complains that it is the customer's fault that the small stores are closing down, these owners really need to look in the mirror.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
