Default Say Hello to Buttercup

Buttercup is my new LK3054XS. Here you see her at Upper Valley Tractor in Enfield New Hampshire. I expect KiotiDave to deliver her to her new home some time in the next week to ten days.

Buttercup has the KL1320 FEL with a 54" toothbar equipped bucket. She's going to have a remote hydraulic kit installed so she can power the log splitter she'll have on her 3PH. To help move logs, she also has a locally made frame that attaches to the 3PH and provides a handy way to chain the logs on.

Pretty soon, she'll be busy moving rocks on my property and helping me collect firewood for next winter.

I'll post some more pictures of her in action once I've had a chance to take them.

The PHD isn't part of the package, she was just holding it up to help KiotiDave display it on the lot.

S W E E T!!! And all the Angels in heaven rejoice at the purchase of another LK3054XS. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Sorry, I tend to get excited when another brother is added to the family.

By the way, what is Dave going to use to keep the concrete from flying away when he delivers the XS? I noticed the loader is keeping them in place. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Very nice, will you tell your friends at home what you named it though? If you want to give it a female name how about "Ball Breaker Bertha". [img]/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Killer machine!! [img]/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

You're gonna love it! I'm more impressed with mine every time I use it. No frills, it's all buisness & really can get the job done. Have fun!

Actually, the homelier and more utilitarian the machine, the sweeter the name should be. Such as the septic sucker truck named "Petunia". Or the 1,000 horsepower high pressure steam boiler named "Mary". [img]/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

And in any case, her seat is too well molded and padded for that monicker to apply. I hope. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

As for the concrete blocks blowing away in the breeze... I guess he'll just have to order more tractors. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The sooner you get it dirty the better.

As I am on a 30HP machine quest, what made you go with the 3054 versus the CK30?

CK20, FEL and BH for a little while longer

Congratulations on that new tractor !
My wife wants to name mine , but so far I've been able to avoid it . Next time she brings it up I'll tell her to stop by on this forum for suggested names . As it's a Kubota , I'm sure names like "dinner " ,"snack " , "Kioti Meat " ," Kubottles and bits" ,etc will cure her of asking me again [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] But , That aside , enjoy that new machine . I know you'll love working it it . John

Is that a CK20 TLB beside Buttercup? I'll bet that don't last too long!
