Moving Iron: The Equipment Market That Won’t Cool Off

In this episode, Casey and Greg break down a red-hot used equipment market that continues to defy broader economic signals. Premium, low-hour machines are commanding record prices at auction, while dealers are quickly running out of 5–10-year-old inventory. They also dive into the growing demand for pre-emissions equipment and the surprising strength of collector interest in older models. But with retirements increasing and demographics shifting, what does the future buyer pool look like? Plus, the conversation turns to extreme weather—where drought, wind, and wildfires are already creating major challenges across ag country. From “powder dry” soils to shrinking hay yields and rising baler prices, the ripple effects are hitting both producers and equipment markets. The guys also explore how new hay technology is improving efficiency—but at a cost that requires careful ROI consideration.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
