Yeah, I get the benefit of not having to sell and having all the pressure on it. The one I like talking about most, I'd say field belts for sure. High-speed discs have a lot to offer, a lot of good unique value. Grand carts as well, all equit, all stay on that side of it. They just are an undervalued piece of the harvest operation for sure.

Well, I mean, it's an indirect application. I've been looking for a good opportunity to squeeze this one into the conversation, and it kind of ties back into something with you, Dave, is even just in transportation and logistics in general, whether it's hay or anything else that you're moving on the product, we have a full line of... equipment hauling trailers now.

Everything from a small 8-ton tilt deck or 5-ton car equipment hauler type trailer all the way up into we do low boy heavy hauls as well. Oh, really? Okay, very good. Again, that's part of that diversified portfolio of products that we manufacture.

But getting a heavy-duty, well-built trailer that we design around construction contractors needs, but being able to find a place for that on the farm, whether it's moving the skid loader, whether it's throwing a few bales of hay on it, whatever it may be. Love it. It's just a great gap filling product kind of thing for us.

Yeah, for sure. We've taken technology to heart. I mean, I think You were hesitant to say short-line equipment earlier. I'd say a lot more people would say it's the dumb iron of the farm on that side of it. And I say that with love in my heart on that side of it. But technology is the next big play for us.

I mean, we've seen it from the innovations that we've made in our electric swing hoppers, on our swing augers and our harvest belts, to some of the automation systems that we're now baking into our grain carts with the joystick operation, but then the scale systems that we're doing it.

And we've worked very closely with some of our technology partners that supply the hardware and some of the software for that for us. But now we're seeing some of those same companies taking big steps forwards on their own with autonomous grain carts and things like that. So we're in a really good place with a strong internal development team.
