First and foremost - I strongly believe that regardless of expense this hobby will survive.!!
However this morning I opened my Email to a letter from a less enthusiastic person who sells parts and tractors. We had been in negotiations for a Cub High/Wide kit that was priced well outside of reasonable...to which he responded "It does not eat..so pay my price or leave it". I gotta say I respected his convictions and said I will think about it. It was later in the letter that he assured me "the rising prices in fuel are spelling doom for the tractor business...just you wait and see" This brings me to my inquiry..how many of you are dumping tractors and equipment now? I personally have it seen it become a BUYERS market over the last few months...but just like most of you I never intend to buy high/sell low.

I am thinking it will be more of a thinning similiar to what occurred in muscle cars..where true collectors sucked up everything and those who were sorta in the hobby moved in a different direction....your thoughts?
