I been hauling.. getting 280 across the board for tin up to heavy stuff.
I've already scrapped a 750 and 760 Massey combine, A2 and K Gleaners are going in the next week, then likely my 510 Massey goes..
What I can't figure out is like today, I helped a good friend take in a car that needed more repair than it's worth. We took it to a yard that was paying 190 as opposed to the yard I deal with that is paying 280.. 90 bucks a ton difference.. Do people not need (in his case) the extra $180 (car weighed in at 4010 pounds) I know I'm scrapping because I'm trying to pay off all my debts and pay for school, as well as buy another toy.. That 180 would have been half of a remaining truck payment for me..
The paying off debts and school all plays into hopefully being able to get my own business going, and maybe leaving my job in a couple years to do my thing full time.. Easier to do when you only have to make 500/month household bills as opposed to 1500/month to cover the household bills plus debt.
Just a young kid with a plan

Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
