I'll bite

I love how you kill em' in two years but here is a early 90's Ford that is still going- oh, or is that a real sharp picture from back in the day?

You love keeping up your place and performing maintenance but you boast about overloading and breaking stuff. Huh? I just hope your silliness does not endanger or hurt anyone else.

Its your money so do with it what you wish but the truth at the end of the day is you will get more work done by working smarter, not harder (and breaking stuff).

my $.02

The only equipment that gets abuse is my truck. I never bragged on beating the hell out of anything else. I buy used trucks and use them.

I paid a whole $1500 for that truck a little over 2 years ago that's a whole $62.25 a month. It served me well and I'm sure made me back way over the $62.25 each month. What do you pay $400/ month?? How well is that paying you back?

Most of the decent guys here through a little advice at me such as the ford straight 6 and so on that seems to outlast the others. Some of the jerks in here just had to add their $.02 cents to sound smarter than the rest of us. I'll mail you're $.02 back to ya

This is a great site, but one question one should _never_ ask here is "Which color of tractor/ combine/ truck is better?"

Oy! It brings high blood pressures _real_ fast, for no good reason, from otherwise really good people. :)

I got a '92 pickup that I bought new, and it is running good at 140,000 miles, and has done everything I asked of it. I work it, but I don't beat on it at all. Other pickup is a '95, got it 5-6 years ago, it works. Doesn't really matter what brand they are, some things break, some things don't.

I suspect you might want to move up a bit, if you have a 1/2 ton, go for a 3/4, or to a ton if you have a 3/4. Might add a year or 2 to your machine.
