Well we are finally getting some snow and I will be able to get a little seat time tonight plowing the driveway and will do a final clean-up tomorrow. It has been the warmest winter I can remember not one flake the whole month of January. Have fun fellow TBNer's!!

I live in the Northern Shenandoah Valley in VA, we are getting temps in the low 40's at night. I had wanted to overseed early in Oct. but it had been so dry, but lastly we got about a week of rain last week, so can I seed and get a decent stand?

My yard has really gone way back this summer, mostly due to lack of rain and neglect by myself. I started a new company this winter and it has had me spending a good deal of time on the road, in addition cancer is beginning to take its toal on my father-in-law and I have spent a good many...

Day started out bad actually it started yesterday, while brush hogging I got a flat on my left front, my tube got a leak (don't flame me about using tubes) Now back to the story, I intended to get up early this morning and take care of the office work and finish up by noon so I can fix the tire...

I have been considering trading up to a bigger machine. I have been out kicking tires and test driving and reading sales material. I have noticed that both the TC 30 and the B-7800 are gross HP of 30, however the literature states the TC 30 has 24 PTO HP vs B-7800 22 PTO HP both have similar...

I was wondering has anyone purchased a set of blades for there Woods finish mower. I thought it would be nice to have an extra set, so that way I could always have a sharpened set ready all the time. That is if I don't procratinate as usual and then I would have two sets of dull blades.

This past friday on the way home form work I decided to stop by Winchester Equipment sales and kick a few tires. They had a new B-7800 really nice looking machine, I went inside to pick up some literature on the 7800 and there sat a new Grand L 3130 sitting on the show room floor outfitted with...

What should I do to fix? Remove and slime, plug, or have someone patch from the inside. ( This is the left rear and they are not filled) Any suggestions.

I visited a new Kubota NH dealer just nosing around kicking a tire or two and I really liked the look of the 3010, I climbed onboard and this thing is heaven. I only have 6 acres and to be perfectly honest my B-7500 does all the task I have but the bushhogging certainly would be more...

It's a sad state of affairs the apple orchards and hay fields are growing more and more scarice. As I ride around my home I constantly see survey stobs and real estate signs advertising new 5 acre lots, I can't blame the land owners with 5 acres selling for anywhere between $65,000 and $110,000...

I have a large rock formation in the backyard of my property. The problem is it is to rocky and steep to bush hog but the weeds and brush grow an a very rapid rate. The wife hates the weeds and I hate having to sickle the weeds down. Can any of you fellow TBNers suggest a good brush killer I...

Today was one of those days that everything was just right. Came home and bush hogged the back field. As I was finishing up my daughter informed me that dinner was ready fresh salad, sweet corn, and chicken,dinner on the back porch. Whether was perfect sat on the back porch relaxed and watched...

Boy o boy is the grass ever growing. It certianly looks nice but with rain at least every other day its becoming hard to keep the mowing up. I hate to rake but it looks as though it needs it. The plus side I can get plenty of seat time The negative I can't find the time to bush hog the back...

Had a good day with the tractor, took off the rear blade and clean off and greased up the Woods rear mower. Put down fertilizer need to invest in a PTO driven spreader, looked funny pulling the little Agri-Fab spreader with the Kubota. Just great to see the grass starting to grow and green...

I'm thinking about putting up or having someone put up a fence on my property. Whats the going rate per foot for material alone and for having it installed. I live in Winchester VA any comments would be appreciated.

I was reading a post where a poster mentioned the seldom seen B-7400. I visited 5 Kubota dealers before purchasing my B-7500, and not one had a B-7400 on the lot. This is not meant to offend any 7400 owners, I was just wondering why Kubota offers the model, does not seem at all popular amist...

I am a novice with a digital camera, however I have sent pictures over E-Mail. When I try to post it says my file is to big I can buy that but how do you make it smaller? I tried to reduce the resolution and amount of color maybe I just need a course in picture posting. The camera is an...

I got a couple of quotes today on post hole diggers. Local Deere dealer gave me a price of $825 for a bush hog brand. Kubota dealer gave me a price of $795 for a Woods 1130. What is a good price I don't plan on using it very often, but I don't want to have to borrow or rent. Crown

I'm thinking of putting up a three board black board fence on the road frontage of my property. What size post hold auger will I need? What does a post hole digger cost? Would I be better off renting or buying? I have a B-7500 and my land is full of limestone and clay will the tractor handle...

I own a B-7500 and I spotted a rear PTO driven snow blower connected to a B-7300. Does anyone know anything about this type of implement, do they work well and what price should one expect to pay. I did not have time to talk to the dealer, however the unit seems in good shape. Any info would...

The front tires on my B-7500 seem to have a slow leak I kept a check on them during the mowing season, however the tractor is now stored and only gets used when snow falls. I was out in my shed today putting away Christmas presents and lights I noticed both front tires were almost completly...

I'm looking for a basic low cost new rear blade for my B-7500. What brand does the board recommend, it will be used primarily if not exclusively for snow plowing. I have a 100 ft paved drive. I currently own Woods and Howse implements, does Howse make a rear blade I know the Woods quality is...

Woodstock, just wondering how you've been doing on your kobota price page project. I thought it was very interesting and would be very insightful.

Just finished my small out-building to house my tractor. Took a good 5 days but the tractor sure fits in their nicely, room for the finish mower, bush hog, and blade. Wife sure likes the idea of the cars being back in the garage, I apparently think more of my B 7500 than my car.

I posted a while back about which rear blade and got some very good advice. Thanks to all who replied. What is a good price for a no frills blade? Crown

It seems like the time has flew by but I am now approaching my first 50 hours on my B-7500 HST (48.5 hours). What is the going rate? I could probably do it myself, but I think I would feel better with a trained mechanic the first time. I was qouted $130.00 doesn't sound to bad, that includes...

Hard to believe that I'm thinking about pushing snow and what I will need with the temps outside in the upper 90's. I own a B7500, I have a 100 foot recently paved drive to clear. I think the rear blade is the way to go a snow blower would be nice but I don't think I can justify the cost...

I bush hog approximatly 3 acres however the groud hogs are taking over those holes are big and cause the bush hog to bottom out and also if I hit it wrong it gives you a scare. I have no love loss for these animals, but I need to know a humane way to get rid of them, before they invade my...

This may sound dumb but here it goes I have a heck of a time connecting my 4 foot Howse bush Hog to my B-7500. I have only connected and used it 3 times but it seems to take me on average 30 minutes to connect and my Woods mower no more than 5. Is there a correct sequence to attach ie left...

Just finished putting the first 15 hours on my B 7500 all systems working perfectly,have used it mostly for mowing and some very heavy bush hogging, the tractor didn't even grunt cutting through wild grass and shurbs up to the nose of the tractor, lack of position control has not been an issue...

My ROPs on my B 7500 seem to have alot of play in them is this normal or do they need to be adjusted?

Would like to thank TBN for all the info. Purchased a B 7500 HST,Foldable ROPs, 3 front suitcase weights, turf tires, woods RD 6000, and a Howse 4 ft Bush Hog for $11,800. Is this a good/fair price?

When I raise the mower with my B 7500 the front comes way off the ground the back wheels dont even leave the ground have I attached it wrong, works fine just doesn't seem right.
