Well If I could get $7.50 a bale I would think about delivering it. LOL I sold a fair amount of horse hay 30 years ago. At the time I was getting $2.50 a bale and $.50 per bale to deliver on loads 100 bales or larger.
Quit about 15 years ago and had gotten it to where I only delivered semi load lots. Had three large horse barns that had hired Mexicans an they did all the work. I just backed into the barn. Then they thought that they could buy hay out of the Dakotas cheaper. So I just cut the hay acres back to what I needed and crop farmed the rest. Made my life ten times easier.
P.S. The next year after the big horse farms all went together and bought Dakota hay, one of them came to me "offering" to take my hay off my hands for a $1 a bale less than they had given two years before. LOL I walked him around the house an pointed to the "new" contour strips with corn and soybeans. I told him that was his former hay ground and it was not going back to hay for at least five years on the current rotation. I guess he figured I would keep making the same amount of hay and just storing it for him to come along and buy/steal. LOL

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". 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
