FarmVille has upgraded Bushels to include a few new features.
You can now purchase Crafting Building Recipe ingredients directly from the FarmVille Market. You may buy ingredients for your Recipe including complete Bushel sets in the FarmVille Market for 3 FV$ farm cash. If you don’t have the required Bushels or can’t “adopt” any from a friend, this will help out anyone missing a few obscure Bushels for a Crafting Building Recipe.
In another Bushel upgrade, the storage capacity for Bushels has been increased to 100 Bushels.

The video jokingly depicts some of the addictions and obsessions that many FarmVille Freaks face. Here is an excerpt from the opening lyrics:
“There’s just too much violence in the World of War Craft, and I can’t stand the guns in Mafia Wars, so I slip on my overalls and i log onto FaceBook. I want the feeling of working outside while I’m sitting indoors. So I’m wasting the day again in FarmaritaVille tryng to raise my Carrots and Corn. Some people claim that I’ve got no life at all, but at least its better than porn.”
My personal favorite line is, “Life is not about Carrots!”

FarmVille announced via their official FaceBook Fan Page that the FarmVille Pick Up Truck Seeder would be coming soon to farms near you!
You may remember that earlier this month FarmVille polled farmers via the official FarmVille Forum and asked us to vote on what the next vehicle released should be.
We conducted the same poll at FarmVille Freak, and FarmVille Freaks also chose the Pick Up Truck as the next FarmVille Seeder with the most votes. Farmers have been requesting a Pick Up Truck for a long time now, as many feel that no real farm is complete without a Pick Up Truck.
Some of the other choices included in the poll were Fire Truck (second choice on FarmVille Freak), Trolley, and Dump Truck.
From FarmVille:
“Earlier this month we asked for your help in choosing a new seeder or FarmVille. Today we would like to thank you by providing a sneak peek at the artwork for the vote winner: the Pickup Truck. Thanks for your help! **Please note that this is prerelease artwork and subject to ch…ange before you can get it on your farm.**”
Are you happy with the decision for the Pick Up Truck Seeder to be the next FarmVille vehicle? What other type of vehicle would you like to see on your farm?
