More Auction Madness

Tractor price is debatable but wow paid too much for a used 8” auger. Surprised they have a 35hp motor on an 8”

I'm not. We have a 30hp on ours and could definitely use more augering tough wheat

What do you expect when you go from 9” intake to 8” tube. Them supercharged brandts are nothing but horsepower hogs…..

I have lots of old stuff. 9370 all it does is nh3 in fall and heavy harrow in spring.4000 hrs. It could run airdrill if needed.
Old ih auger /vac tractors. 3406 b cat trucks.
. I realize eventually I will have to venture into the electronic age . But I will hold out as long as I can .
No million $ combines here.120
140$ acre rent. Fert 150 -180$.
No . How do you do it? Then add a mil.2 air drills. Combines etc. No. I admit I am a small player. But if you can't make 100$ / acre
Why do it?.

Yep , our 9270, 835, 1070 and 2290 have earned a permanent spot on our farm until the sale

Speaking of high prices ( gouging ) , saw a 1990 ish dodge diesel 3/4 ton 4x4 reg cab long box for sale on KIJIJI , 78,000 original km , dude was asking $60,000 !

I almost spit my coffee out on my desk when I saw that one.

Well i think alot of farms dont care about truly making money, they just get into a trap. What came first... the million dollar combine or the 130$/ ac rent?

Half the btos i know dont have a clue what township their land is in ..but they can tell you how many acres they farm!!!

Since auctions went online i dont even bother to look , and i used to go to a good few auctions before the madness started , allways got something usefull , got lots of great tools etc over the years , and some bigger equipment too , now watch kijiji and FB marketplace etc , far better deals to be had
