  • ** Huge Thanks to John at Fountain Tire in Moosejaw, SK for not sleeping to keep us going when it really counted up north! That guy is part machine and knows how small the window is that farmers have to work in 🙂
    ** Getting new front tires this time as the others are separated from the heat of the move... Tho, they don't owe us anything as they are 5 - 6yrs old and have thousands of miles on them.

      @@mikemitchell2554 yep, i most likely built that one here in Ontario, cranked out 208 trucks in two 10 hr shifts.
      Worked in the back shop fixing problems that happened when built. Most was just bad air/wire routing issues or putting on parts that didn’t get done online.
      Crappy part, company closed that plant in 2009 and now it’s a flat piece of land, and it’s all moved to Mexico

    Good for another six years! Will the rest of the drill last that long?

    Is it just me, or the thread of the big tyres is backwards?
