Kubota M5140 4x4 tractor, Bobcat 331G excavator, BCS 749 walk behind

My wife and I are young farm starters. We bought 150 overgrown acres in the mountains about a year and a half ago. We've been saving up to get our tractor since that time and finally this last week got a Kubota M5140 with front end loader and a 6' rotary cutter . I've lurked on the website looking for info as I saved money for the eventual purchase. I figured it was time to go ahead and become a member. Now that I'm using it and learning more about it I see newb questions about maintenance and attachments are coming from me soon.

No photos yet, I haven't had much daylight to play with it after work yet. I keep doing little projects after day job. Saturday though is going to be awesome. Photos then.
