    Fuel for 200 hp tractor

    Your Mfg should have a fuel consumption rate chart. I know that the owners manual for even something as small as my skid steer has a fuel consumption rate charter. It tells me what to expect depending on how hard I am working the machine. It is not 100% accurate but it is close on consumption...

    Thanks Steve for your post of Premier Golds rebuttal. I am willing to give anybody a fair hearing and do not want to discredit anyone. I asked for opinions and got just that opinions and each of us are entitled to have one. I don't think the individual's personal attack on kmgz was...

    dirtpusher9, absolutely awesome, I have rc cars but nothing that compares to what you do. Mine will go fast but I would rather that they could push dirt. I think that would be a whole lot more fun! Any progress on the scraper? Can't wait, I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas...

    Not trying to hijack your posting, but I had to say that boy is doing great must have had a great teacher. My 5 year old grand son is already trying to kick my big butt out of my skidsteer. The boy has already figured out the controls and can run the machine but only with me in it.:D

    Thanks RTSmith, I appreciate the congrats. And actually the school of hard knocks has taught me one thing, to value the education that I have gotten more (for me) because I wouldn't have valued it as much then. It is amazing how much we think we know when we are young and how life teachs us...

    Financing

    gradydortch, Technically speaking if your company is or were to be a corporation, it becomes a viable entity that has the rights of an individual to seek and obtain its own financing. But with that said, someone has to be the fall guy for the corporation and guess what your it. The laws of...

    Well to start with I am sorry for blowing off steam at those of you who are only being honest with me and trying to help. I have figured it out. I am selling the company to my daughter and son-in-law and I will manage it. Their credit is good enough to carry the business and the new to us...

    xcavator120, I'm sorry if I sound like I am taking this out on you because I am not. I have read hudreds of post about people losing their businesses because of lowlife bankers (not all them fall in this group), or the less than honest people that are in this industry (look at the bid fixing in...

    xcavator120, Thanks for the advice. I guess I forgot to tell you that I have been a salvage operator for over 25 years hauling scrap metal. Both pieces of equipment can serve double duty working both dirt and iron. I have shown him work lined up for a year in both iron and dirt. The problem...

    Do they buy Alder for pulpwood?

    That is about the slickest piece of equipment I have ever seen!!! Need one of those in Ks where fire wood is selling for up to $415 per cord. That machine could make up $1260 per hour that gooooood money when it comes to cutting firewood. I don't know what that machine costs but think of the...

    Financing

    Thanks for the input. That is what I am doing but I don't want to get hooked up with a less than reputable finance company. What the bankers don't understand is that I can pickup a $40,000 piece of equipment for between $10-15,000 which puts me in a position to be able to work for a little...
