Background - I live in a rural area in Western, NY. that is 20mins away from a major city. So it's not in the sticks. I live on 2.5A. The house next to us has been vacate for 2+years due to foreclosure. The house has been sold and the new neighbors just moved in a few weeks ago. I have a feeling...

After agonizing this week over specs I pulled the trigger on a B3200. I worked with Brady Barlow at Barlow Equipment in KY he came through with a great price and delivery to my door in NY. After personally looking at the Kubota 20 series, B3200 and John Deere 2520 it was a no brainer on the...

Ok I'm very close in pulling the trigger on a tractor. So here's my dilemma. I have 2.5 acres that I mow and have light front loader work around the place. I'll be building a storage barn next year and re-doing my landscaping around the house. Most (90%) of my tractor work will be mowing. I...

I sent you a PM. Can you respond to my request?

I'm looking at both these tractors and gotten prices on both. Kubota B2620 w/FEL, Turf Tires and 60in mower = $17450 John Deere 2520 w/FEL, Turf Tires and 62in mower = $20487 Both have 0% financing (Deere 48months/Kubota 60months) I've looked at the specs and both are very similar. On paper...

I came across a used EX2900 with 820hrs for the asking price of $9200. I don't know much about the tractor yet. This is a private sale. Before I go see the machine myself what do you all think about the price? From the PICs it looks in good shape but PICs are somewhat small so I'll take that...

My wife and I moved to a new house late last year. The house is ~16 years old and the previous owners planted 4 Norway Spruce trees that are now ~30 feet tall. Well, those 4 trees are about 30ft away from the front of the house. They are very nice trees and I don't really want to cut them down...

Well, after 7 weeks my Bobtach finally came in. I guess I should be happy. The dealer a few weeks ago gave me a late June delivery. He beat that by a month. In any event, it's installed and I'm happy with it. I was able to find a buyer for my old pin on bucket. He picked it up at the dealer...

5 weeks ago I ordered a bob-tach to replace my pin on bucket. The salesman told me back then it was going to take 2 weeks to get in. Well 5 weeks later I still don't have my bob-tach. I know a year ago there was a serious back log of bob-tachs but I thought they had that worked out. Does anyone...

I've been getting quotes to build a pole barn. I've worked with 3 builders and 2 are very close in price and the 3rd (Noah Burkholder) was about 4K cheaper. My pole barn will be 24'x32' w/concrete and 12'x32' lean-to on one side. It will also have a few windows, man door, overhead door and 12/12...

I noticed a sink hole in my front lawn where the septic field is. I dug around the hole and noticed what appeared to be my septic tank's distribution box. It appeared to have collapsed and the top caved into the center. I cleaned out as much as possible and the bottom seems intact but the sides...

I'm looking at purchasing a 16ft landscape trailer and came across a 16ft Gator Made trailer that seems very reasonable in price. Before I commit to travel to see it and would like know if anyone is familiar with them? Quality? Finish? This is a new trailer for $1850. It has a rear mesh gate...

Here's a PIC of bucket hooks on my pin-on style 68" bucket. BTW - I'm selling the bucket if anyone is interested. I just purchased a Bobtach and new bucket so this one will be sold or traded-in at the dealer. Doug

Bobcat mailed me a refer a friend coupon that gives the new tractor buyer $250 off their tractor purchase. It also gives me $250 off a purchase of an implement if the buyer purchases the tractor. If anyone would like an additional $250 off I can mail them the coupon. The coupon has my name and...
