if you wear out a brand new loader in 3 years with current prices, or wreck the front end they are both expensive from what i see for loaders and new parts. The only guys i see that really wreck front ends don't do maintenance, or carry 2 round bales on a grapple bucket all the time, and the weight to far forward is a big problem loading axles and wrecking them, or just plain stupid drivers.
I feedlot I know destroyed 3 fairly newish Deere tractors front ends in just over 2 months. They drove them like they stole em.
I hardly ever see a wrecked front end, (worn out through many hours use yes) on a tractor with a proper bale spike, the maintenance is done right, or with good drivers to. Maybe with some guys the soft ride Kinda stops them breaking the Anvil with a feather, as somebody said here last week. Perhaps if they drove deacent they wouldn't need soft ride loaders! Now thats my thinking for the day with selling new equipment as a dealer, fixing for guys and a lot of driving experience running stuff to. You have probably seen most things more than twice to in the trade and round about life in general ;).

Today's Featured Article - On the Road with Dave Gohl: Tractor Club Beginnings - by Dave Gohl. I was surprised about a month ago when I got a call from a fellow tractor croonie. His message was interesting and to the point. He's says "Dave, I've been thinking about starting a Two Cylinder club for our area. What do ya think?" It was a loaded question. I said that I would be interested, and was wondering what his next step was. (Although I was talking under my breath, since I thought of this some years ago) My friend, Arlyn Lamb of Lakeville, Minnesota was sincere in his miss
