You're doing it wrong, you are supposed to do it with the old tires before putting the new ones on...

No I put a 4 spd toploader in a few years ago. These truck arn't great for a heel toe so you just drop the clutch and stand on the brakes.

No I have seen that happen a few times by mistake. Kind of hard on the trans.

Yeah we got the rain but it's far to late to save the corn. Most of us have cut it down already and planted late beans. The area I'm didn't get any rain for 71 days straight. Add that to record highs and it was just a bad year.

I see corn crops around here simply left in the field. Always a tell tale sign to me that another American farmer has fallen victim to ceasing operating. :pray:
:hj: Sorry but the field in your video is sad!

Most of the farmers around here including us had insurance to ease the blow but it still hurts.
