Question of the day; what was the machine that was the most emotionally difficult for you to get rid of? For me is was my old 105 Deere combine. For 19 years I repaired, updated, modified, and even cussed at that old girl but she faithfully ran through 500 acres of corn and beans each year for all of those 19 years. When I retired her she took up space in the shed for another ten years before I finally had the guts to say good-bye. About the only thing that wasn't worn out was the engine, so I kept it and cut the rest up into pieces that were just small enough for my loader to lift onto the trailer and she went to the scrap yard. When the crane grabbed that old dinosaur 635 corn head I had a lump in my throat and silently said "good by my friend". It was kind of bittersweet because I never did like that head. Her heart, the engine, a gasser, is still sitting in the shed ready to fire up and go at any moment. So, what's your story? Jim
