Three weeks ago we (myself and two cousins) drove through three counties on our way to see a relative. I first noticed an 80 with five pumpjacks and none were running. We kept counting and got up to 135 not running pumpjacks when we stopped counting. Did not see a single one that was running.

Have never seen anything like it.

btw - My Dad was a pumper early in his career so naturally one grows up noticing this sort of thing.
