After a long road of needing/wanting one after the upgrade to the 110 and need to trailer it, I pulled the trigger on a 2010 Sure-Trac 20' 14k lb (bumper pull). The previous owner said it only had 300 miles on it, and the condition shows it. I did go the bumper pull route just because I need to...

I started this thread on another forum, but would like to post over here for some additional help/advise. So I convinced myself I NEED a welder and now I've convinced myself I NEED to spend 3 times more than my original budget, but although I think I want a 211, I'm still open to suggestions...

I think I've found a trailer for myself. I want/need something new for hauling the new 110 back and forth and around. This weekend I took a look at a couple places and the most notable trailer I saw was a brand new PJ 14k pound 20' with 2' dove tail and 5' fold up ramps. I'll post a couple...

I saw this on another forum, so I'm just copying and pasting them over to share, but I really thought they were interesting. John Deere - 175 Years - YouTube Voices of Our Customers - YouTube

I understand that this is a for profit site, but these hyperlinks to the in text ads is over top, or is it just me. Key words like "John Deere" or Kubota" will create hyperlinks to an ad. I don't mind the side banners, but really not a fan of these hyperlinks. Anyone else agree or am I just too...

Just dropped the 3120 off. Didn't go very far, just to the neighbors, but I officially have one tractor less. He is getting rid of his little New Holland T1110 and upgrading to a real tractor. I always teased him he got it from Toys R Us;) But now if I ever need a slightly smaller tractor I can...

Just got my 110 and took the BH off and put the BB on just to make sure it worked. I'd already tested it out on the 3120 and everything worked, but I wanted to see how the BH came off and make sure all was working before I took it to the cabin and a lot farther from any service people. After...

This forum is pretty well represented - we've got Bota dealers and Kioti, New Holland, Mahindra and so on. The big brands are pretty well represented, except there is not one Deere dealer! What's up with that? I can't imagine why it would be against any corporate policy that they couldn't come...

After the upgrade (whatever it was) last night, I don't seem to get the email subscription any longer. I guess it's not a huge deal, and I only subscribed to a few threads that I really wanted, but when I got on I saw that those threads had been updated and I wasn't notified. I was wondering if...

Pulled the trigger today on a 2005 JD 110. Got all the hydro options, a thumb, grapple, forks, hydraulic box blade, and a top n tilt. Really excited to say the least. I would like to give a big thumbs up to Jenkinsph especially and AKfish, along with all you other clowns;) Really have made me...

Well all, I think I may be looking to make a move... finally. You all probably know from all my bugging around on here that I'm looking for one, and if not now you do;) The one I am looking at is in the link below: 2005 DEERE 110 Machines - Loader Backhoes For Sale At MachineryTrader.com It...

I ran a across this visiting the Deere site today. An American company the last 175 years. Very interesting story. It all started with a better idea for a horse drawn plow, and to look at the machines today, they have come a long way. I took this little snippet out for what their future looks...

As you probably know by now through all of my threads I'm looking into a JD 110. A couple that I've narrowed down to either have a grapple and a std bucket or a 4 in 1. From what I understand the grapple is a little better with the brush but I'll be moving more logs and dirt than brush. I like...

I saw the article on the TBN homepage and I thought I'd share. Look to be pretty good tractors. I checked them all out, and although I don't think they have as many features as some (JD 1026r in particular) but I think the pricing they'll introduce on these could have a lot of people looking at...

So I fired up the 3120 after getting a couple inches to plow the drive. Started right up, no problems, let it warm up a little and then drove it down and started plowing. Got maybe 2 passes done until I looked at the gauges, I noticed it said "Error 61." I didn't want to harm the tractor if...
