[@andrewslagle1974]

How do you get your tractor repaired & serviced on line ?The bottom fell out of the market for used& the rates are up so the model broke!

[@Goodvibes-Adventures]

But switching to becoming a career KZbinr verses serving the local community is beneficial to Bruce only ...That's why our local businesses are closing. Because everything is being done online...If I want to sell or buy something I do it myself not using a middle man

[@scottpayne3745]

Who cares just another video for views

[@qstaffen]

Well I think it would be kind silly to make a video NOT or views....

[@phuqurfeeling]

It sounds like you destroyed a successful business that was handed to you. Your father must be so ashamed.

[@nickbrereton1706]

It’s such a shame, I watched this cause I thought you were finally broke and shutting down, but like all your videos, it’s all click bait. I don’t know what kinda peanut would buy a tractor online without viewing it in person 😵‍💫

[@jrw41069]

So his frivolous spending habits finally caught up with him and he's telling us his father wants to retire. Instead of investing money into the business he wants to play at the truck pulls and shows. Spending money on "Upgrading" his 2 $300,000 trucks and all these other junk will it start trucks to "fix up". If u spent more time promoting the business u wouldn't have to close it. Bruce is 28 yrs old, a youngster in the business world. Buying a tractor online without test driving it or physically touching it is bad business. Bringing all this work to a residential community is going to alienate the neighbors don't wanna see all this "stuff" in a beautiful neighborhood. Letting all ur mechanics go and keeping ur cameraman and one other employee on the payroll is a low blow in this economy. At least keep the repair shop open so that customers can bring equipment to be repaired. Take a look at Tim Gentry's playbook. He didn't let his employees go when he lost his building to fire🤔

[@Holye5833]

I would say you are a fan that wants Bruce to keep coming up... But, nah by the tone of what you say, you're just someone miserable who made mistakes during your fortunate or unfortunate life and that in itself is sad. That is NOT Bruces' problem nor is his would or would be problems yours. I'm going take one from your playbook: "If you spend more time..." actually giving your experience, strength, and hope to others; especially those you do not know. You probably wouldn't be as miserable or at the very least wouldn't be sowing more misery into this shit show of a world especially if you've already "been there done that". w.e
