There are plenty of people on here changing the oil at least twice as often as it need changing. There are others riding to the coffee shop in a 400hp V8 pickup and you are complaining about using a couple of $ worth of urea each day compared to hundreds in diesel?



I don't do either of those things and I don't see why it matters if someone else does. Wasted expenses need to be cut where ever possible to stay competitive. Like you indicated in an earlier reply, all tractors put exhaust into the same atmosphere. In places like Russia and Uruguay, farmers are using brand new tier 2 tractors with all the worthwhile electronics that promote longevity and efficiency, and without wasted expenses for emissions compliance. Our own government is giving those farmers an advantage, at our expense. Some of us would still rather compete the old fashioned way as opposed resigning to the fact that a firm attachment to the government tit is what keeps the farm going, like most Europeans.
