So my wallet made the decision for me. Tractor Supply had one on clearance, marked down to $5k. The brand is Massimo, which is a US company, with assembly in Georgia or Texas, using mostly Chinese parts. I read through a ton of reviews, watched a bunch of YouTube videos, and talked to the...

Haven't heard anyone talking about Trump media lately. It was up 21% today.

You angle the plow so the snow is pushed off to the left or right. I go down the center of the drive pushing snow off to one side, then come back pushing to the other side. Move over 3 feet for the next passes. Repeat as needed.

Can't see my clovers yet here in central WI. Been too cold this spring. Medium red does well on my sand. You should be fine unless the deer completely eliminated it over the winter.

71 million people have 401k's in this country. Anyone know what the average monthly contributions are? There's got to be at least $10 Billion a month going into the market just from 401k's. How can there be a crash with that much going in on the regular?

My workplace started sourcing more of it's copper bus bar from inside the country now, whereas we used to get it almost solely from a company in Peru. And now we're ordering a couple semi loads at a time instead of smaller orders more often. But I have no idea if it's tariff related, or due to...
