^^ Exactly! None of my tractors are newer than 1994, and none of them have beacons

I'm a manager of a local wheel/tire shop. We offer kumho, nangkang, nexen tires and other affordable brands. I'm also a hobby farmer, trying to save enough so that I can farm full time.

I worked on my family farm until recently (Wisconsin), I now manage it from my home near Lake McBride, outside of Iowa City Iowa. I'm also still involved in many ventures in Agribusinesses (Consulting) and am chiefly involved in the raising of my son. I am 53 and starting to slow down a bit so I relax with FS15 (PC) and FS17 (Xbox One).

I'm an irrigation contractor in central Minnesota. I specialize in athletic complexes, schools and street scapes but I'll do any commercial or residential projects. Its very rewarding for me and being in Minnesota, I get to take December through March off since the ground is frozen. That leaves a lot of down time for FS17!

I'm an engineering professor at a technical university. Grew up on a small pig/barley/potato farm. First tractor I remember was a Ford Dexta. Then a David Brown 880. Drow tractors from I was 10! Would never let my boys do that. So, to me, playing farming simulator is a mix of childhood nostalgia and love for modern technology. Being an expert on mathematical modelling, I spend a lot of time calculating and resetting mod parameters in Seaons and MoreRealistic to numbers in agreement with EU statistics.

Isn't she purdy, got a brand new truck last week and so far have put about 900 km's on it. That's tiny for a truck in a week but we do very little km's per hour.

Thanks. The day after I got that a clown crashed my older one into the loading shovel in the yard, they are called wheelloaders in the game.

I work with one guy that has to have this specific truck, and he had to move 2 other trucks to get to it. Yet one truck was already hooked to the trailer he needed. WALNUTS :lol: :lol:
