Thanks for posting. Looks like you can see well with the light upgrade. Corn looked pretty good too.

yeah i still am going to replace the top 2 driving lights, i'm getting a price through our vendor now. They are god awful expensive to just buy online (100-110/light) so I'm hoping I can get a significant discount. The volt meter does not even twitch running all lights until I turn the old driving lights on.

Inputs are the "same" for our 150bu corn.At least the sucky prices won't hurt you as much....

Sorry to hear that Steve, is that typical for your area or just a wet year? This was corn on corn and we are still averaging around 250 which is 50-70 higher than normal.

That's awesome to see a R50 run 3.5 mph in 250 bu corn. Mine ran out of ponies at 3 in 230 bu corn this year.
