The extended warranty on my 2018 F250 was USELESS! A dealership must be able & willing to do the work, and the parts must be available, in order for a warranty to be useful. Complete waste of money.

2014 is a different emissions tier, I believe. 2012 was the last of tier 3 But not sure.

It might appear to be tenuous to some people, but I quit getting the nasty effects from poison ivy, poison oak, & poison sumac after I quit drinking A1 dairy. In fact, my overall gut health has been really good since-then; going on 12 years now.

It might not be so bad in Oregon if the CCC hadn't planted millions & millions of trees 4 foot apart and if public land didn't have the "dreadknotts" forestry policies. Millions of Jack-Pines in some of the Fort Rock Unit are 6" apart. Tillamook State Forest is a mess and ready for another...

We just finished watching the complete "Revolution" TV series. Great series but we completely forgot that one of the main actors in season two is/was an accused real life pedophile...🤢

It took me three months to decide on which 10 gallons of HST oil to buy for my Mahindra 3016....the lack of standards makes it difficult. Paying much-more for the dealer brand wasn't an option. Considering the use of the tractor helped me decide to wait...severe duty vs medium or light duty...

Disaster for people who use their truck to make a living.

Officially Fire Season in PNW with IFPL raised to level one https://gisapps.odf.oregon.gov/firerestrictions/ifpl.html

Egan muffler for my 461

June 28th I think.

Agree, a tractor is a game changer! Ground Clearance Hydraulics Implements Mobility 🥰

Whatever you choose, I respectfully suggest that a buyer knows how to decipher the DOM plate. "New" could mean a two to three years old piece of equipment....sitting on the lot.

I use mechanical "help" any time I'm cutting near power lines, property boundary, or a structure. Ladder (at least 1/3 of the height), run a cable in a dog-leg to a snatch block, then to the tractor....99.9% more safe than pushing a tree down with a tractor. Barbur Chairs can destroy a...

First thought is something is out of balance
