All the Deeremarts here in western Michigan just recently merged with a bunch in Indiana for 16 locations all under one name now.
I don't drive a Honda or Toyota myself,but I have inlaws who work at Toyota in Georgetown Ky. When you put a face,a name and a family to those jobs,it's pretty darned hard to accept that we're better off buying cars made in Mexico because it's an American name on them.

I guess when it all comes right down to it though,I hate fads. No matter what it is,if I'm in to it and too many people pile on and take an interest,I'm out. I like to shop in the small stores where people will talk to you.I listen to music that isn't played to death,watch obscure TV shows,you name it. When I vacation I'd a whole lot rather sit at a general store on the Ozarks talking to a few locals than stand in line at a theme park or some other tourist attraction. Even with these Olivers,I've mastered working on them and getting parts to the point that I can have parts for them faster than I can a Deere and can work on them with my eyes closed. That's why the foreign built Olivers have caught my interest. Not many folks want them and I don't know much about them myself. I don't just want to read up on them,I want to learn hands on.

Plain and simple,if somebody tells me something is worthless or that an idea won't work,that's what I want to have or try.
I'm just not in the main stream.

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
