New fandangled crap

One day I decided to try a new Jeep Grand Cherokee, told dealer not to put mine too far from the front door..... sooo of course , how the h do you start this thing, then off I go. This chick talks to you, but then I’m checking her out and gonna open her up a bit down Victoria in pretty heavy traffic. Picture this: faster-faster- car starts screaming at me that I am in the wrong gear. Oh geez, what gear am I in, can’t see, look at shift, some stupid bump shift, doesn’t show gear. I look up and all the traffic in front of me has stopped. Squeeling good brakes! Closest thing to piling into the back of a cement truck. I took that thing back, picked up the keys to my old Jeep. She doesn’t try to kill me.

Maybe throw in an air ride seat too......

We put one in our 835. It cost quite a bit.
The old seat was a spine crusher.

Air ride seat. Check. Not a fan of the 4 on the floor either....

800 Versatile but with a stainless steel muffler . For maintenance just give it a new paint job every 40 years.

Western farmers would be better off if they arbitrarily cancelled ALL check offs and used the money to hire scientists to build them a brand new farmer patented tractor. Set up a manufacturing plant. NO giveaway info. No high priced parts. Ans components that easily.slide in an out for easy repair

Well, it’s simplistic, isn’t it!! Pars.

Wouldn't want to be without GPS, but damn are the replacement components and dealer service diagnostics expensive. Basically highway robbery. Lube doesn't even help with the discomfort.

When you've done all you can to troubleshoot it yourself and you need the dealership to start swapping out components to eliminate possibilities thats where it gets expensive, even if they don't leave the new components in that weren't causing the problem. Who keeps components on the farm just in case? Unless you can borrow the neighbors, but with all the settings etc...

We bought a Hitachi track hoe a few years back. It was imported from Japan at some point in its life. No manual and every decal inside the cab was in Japanese. I had quite a chuckle watching dad figure out how to operate it.

Mighta learned quicker if he'd been wearing a kimono :/
