Did you see the thread a few days (weeks) ago on machinery talk? Lots of talk about cheap equipment, but then high repair bills. Even with a guys own wrenching labor parts arent cheap now days. I guess Im not convinced a 500 ac guy working his tail off with older equipment in the end is going to be able to operate that much cheaper than a 2500 acre guy. Maybe $20-30 acre?
