Knowing where our 8006 came from, I have to call you on that statement because I'm sure one thing which it certainly never recieved was careful maintenance.  To be honest the same it true in it's life here....it's an auger tractor, so as long as it starts and runs and the PTO turns, it gets used.  If we're lucky, someone will think to put fuel in it before it runs out. 

I sure wish we had put an hour meter on it when we got it.  I'm sure it has to accumulate more hours then the combines do because when they are running picking corn, it is running dumping corn, then come winter, it gets to move it all out again.
