I farm for my living but in today's world I am considered a hobby farmer. We milked cows for 20 years and now do some crops and a small beef herd where we finish all our calves. I have always farmed with good older equipment. We have a good shop and try to go over everything. In all my years of farming I have never had any field losses due to operating old or small equipment. No grain buyers ever ask what combine do you have before they decide how much to pay you. My dad always said you have 2 choices Parts or Payments. I like shop work and the older simpler equipment. I should have a 6620 but I just do not like that series of combines as they are hard to work on. If buying newer I would go to a 9510 but with 100 acres to cut a year I am not making that big investment. Many farmer do alot of work for Deere, CaseIH and others before they keep any for themselves. In my area rent is over $300 per acre so finding any land to expand is not going to happen. Tom

And, if you are like me, your tractor is under cover, but it sits outside. So with every temperature change, the humidity in the air collects in the fuel tank, in the form of water.
