Gas prices in Indiana need to be brought down. Unfortunately we have one of the highest gas taxes in the entire country. This must change! As your next state senator, I will fight to lower the gas tax!

@Mike_M_Klotz Hydrogen if they can work out the distribution network. Storage has been solved, it just requires heavily regulated (non-nuclear but nuclear related) materials.

If EV’s in their current state are a stopgap tech, and small displacement turbocharged engines are a fad, what’s the next shift in automotive propulsion systems going to be?

We had sloppy joes at church potluck today, but some of you may call them loose meat sandwiches or maid rites but it's all really just the same thing and it's silly when people pretend there's any difference between them.

@wrowclif Sloppy Joe's have a tomato based sauce. Maid rites don't. Big difference.

Checked my property tax invoice today and it is $331 less than last year. This is largely due to SEA1 in 2025.

@JeffMurphy10 This became 30% of our revenue in yr 1. It's 250 sqft of space. No regrets.

@MattHintz3 There is a reason why I keep wrenching on what is in the driveway. Also, never attempt to buy a vehicle in Kentucky.

I survived an automobile transaction today at a dealership. There has to be a better way than how things went today

Not much effect? It has exactly the effect of a 66% BTU additve would have. It has no effect on gas prices. You get less MPG and you pay less for it. W/O E fuels are a blend of premium with 85 Octane and so much more expensive than the OG 87 E0 of yesteryears. Its a false comparison.

@cyrano54 @agtradertalk Huh? It is a better octane booster than MTBE. At this percentage does not have much effect on mileage. And helps depress gasoline prices. Local 87 octane rack prices are $2.77 a gallon w/ ethanol (e10) vs $3.15 a gallon without.

@MattWallace888 Not completely true. It isn't the only option, but rail is the best option in a lot of parts. They could still get barges to unload into trucks to haul it over...but at a higher cost.

A Minnesota farmer just came forward and what he revealed will make you sick. Midwest and Plains farmers have ZERO alternatives to rail. No trucking. No barges. Nothing! So if Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern merge into a single massive transcontinental railroad, these families will be completely trapped, with no way out. One of the farmers being impacted explains in the video exactly what happens to his livelihood when there’s nobody left to compete 😳 This is a monopoly being built in real time and the mainstream media is silent about it…
Wall Street Mav@WallStreetMav

This farmer put it well: When railroads consolidate and competition disappears, farmers don’t ship less. They just get paid less. That’s the reality of what the Union Pacific-Norfolk Southern merger would do to the people who feed this country.

@Bkitch1Bodie @ADTrost Brock kept switching their sweep designs. So we went with commercial hutch sweeps on last two as like the simplicity of them. Doesn’t look like current Brock tho?

@agtradertalk Worthless effort. E15 is only dispensed in 1.5 to 2% of pumps. It costs money to convert a C-store over to E-15 so passing a law still takes a major investment by the infrastructure owners to make it happen.

We should all have our own hydraulic hose supplies and machines. If you buy a manual Chinese one and some hose from an online distributor, decent hose but not Parker, you will pay for it within a couple of hoses maybe the first.
Not exactly handsome but definitely handy.@wilgocki55

Dealer parts prices are becoming insane. 200psi sprayer hose at jd $10.50 per ft. Ag Spray? $3 per ft same hose. Timiken bearing at agco for a rhino shredder, $950. Online, same bearing, $380. That's not to mention the local zim dealer complaining about direct pivot parts prices.
