I appreciate this...

    How much do agricultural machinery sales people get paid

    How much can an average agricultural machinery sales person expect to earn in a year. Is there a set minimum wage then commission? Or is it based just on commission? Don’t really want people guessing I want to hear from people who actually know because we all know how that will go.

    Tipping trailer ram seals

    How difficult is it to repair trailer rams. Oil squirts out as the first stage gets to the end of the travel. I assume it will need seals on both ends. May aswell do all stages at the same time.
