Who's Carl Sagan 🤭😂 Honestly I dont have a clue 😂
LOL - type his name into Google and get ready for Billions upon Billions of results (a similar phrase is attributed to him but he never actually said it)

He was involved in many NASA discoveries and missions, had a TV series I believe was called "The Cosmos" and was instrumental in SETI, back in the 70s and 80s, even into the 90s, he was almost a household name in connection to space, planetary discoveries, and the universe, as well as general scientific methods. There's even a term used in honor of him, a unit of measure that is used when anything is astronomically huge - "the sagan".

So, slow day because one little factory in New York is apparently the lynchpin of the entire industry... Took the time to learn the build planning EDI system, and here are the scheduled builds for LB, JL, JT, and DT through the end of CY 26.

Each chassis I then grabbed the engine option.

This is going to be my last update on this, since it's really a wasted effort and there's probably 35 posts on this board in the past 24 hours about waiting for the 5.7 right now lol.

But..........but..............but what about all of those reports from the experts and insiders and magazines and blogs and Youtube channels - it's coming, he said it was coming, 2026, yes, it's coming.
you are wrong because the insiders said so.
Don't confuse us with facts and numbers, the CEO said it was coming, the media and forum posts said the CEO said so. And what about those Youtube posts swearing that "secret sources inside Jeep" have said so?
No, you must be wrong because you are outnumbered.
More posts and people say it's coming that those (the one) who say it's not.
To the internet, numbers matter, the more posts that say something is so, means it's so.
If 10 people say something works a certain way and only 2 say no, it works differently, then those two are wrong.
So - sorry, queue in the fellow broadcasting from his hotel room - he's got sources!

You can't just run a piece of equipment to a shop, and if you could, it meant down-time into the weeks and that can't happen during planting or harvest. And if it broke in the field, you fixed it in the field. Welding, cutting, fabricating, building, engineering, you had to do it all.
I bought 6 row planter dirt cheap because it was a 36" row planter and no one was planting that row width and more save for a very few really small farms. The standard at that time was 30. So I had to use some math and move things over, shorten bars, reconfigure the markers and in the end, had a 6/30 planter and no one knew the difference. It sold like any other 30" planter on my auction, although by the time, 12 row was more standard. Had it been a 36" row planter, might have gone for scrap. I had too much power in my big Case tractor and the front end was a bit dicey at times, so I moved the front axle forward, longer wheelbase, more stable with a heavy load on the rear.
You are a plumber, electrician, builder/remodeler, machinist, you name it.

I dont know who these posters are that know when the 5.7 is coming but it wasn't long ago that you were telling us to eat the shit sandwich of ev everything that was being served to us. We actually dont have to eat shit sandwiches at all. Do you remember that?
