I don't know "Jack" about All Crops n' implements n' such, but THAT looks to be a pretty nice original unit there. I guess putting your knee pads on and pleading wouldn't work with your wife either aye? I guess I'm fortunate there, my wife talks me into buying cool stuff! I sure as heck don't need an All Crop tho.....

Time to put your foot down as the man of the house and inform her you will be coming home with a combine.

i'm glad it's clear across the country. mine would have nagged me till i bought it! we'll see what happens sunday at our first auction... she's pushing for "buy it now, use it later". i think maybe she likes me out in the shop rather than underfoot.
