@AdamSchefter I think this potentially shows a real commitment to Tua and building a sustainable roster built off the draft around him.
For the first time in 20 years the Dolphins have a real plan.

@SecRollins Do you even talk to farmers, there not down in Illinois

For the last four years, agricultural input costs have skyrocketed: seeds, fertilizer, fuel, interest rates, and labor — every single one of them!
We’ve successfully brought those costs down. 📉
At the same time, we’ve secured 24+ new global trade deals, opening fresh markets for American farmers. 🇺🇸🤝🌏
This is the proven formula: lower input costs + new export markets = lower prices for consumers AND a stronger, more prosperous agricultural economy! 💪🌾

Where do hard working heavy machinery go once they've racked up a tremendous amount of operational hours? Oh, to be rebuilt, (if they're lucky) that's where! From 18,000 hours to like new! Just like that! And so a question - how does the industry start enticing more young people to get into the trades such as this? - either as operators or heavy machine mechanics/restoration?

@PETERSONIHFARMS The uncle bought it in 86 for I think 4,500, has around 3800 hrs on it all original besides a head gasket, doubt it’s leaving for now

@MSandschafer This ones for a customer, original DV550 ate its pigs I think, or engines long gone... he wanted to do 9.0L conversion, theres a few other (14/1568's) here for complete rebuild/restoration too.

First day of NFMS in Louisville
The only equipment anyone seems excited to look at has been livestock related 😂
There’s a booth with a really sharp straight truck. $99k. Owner said they have made up to 100 trucks a year, but past few have only been 20-30. Everyone continues the move to hopper bottoms
