Well colorado believes they even own the rain, its illegal to have a water catchment system!! But I'm sure if they could figure out how to regulate air, they would charge you to breath!! Nasty place!

Now you're starting to sound like a Beatle's song. :laughing:

If you drive a car, car, I'll tax the street
If you try to sit, sit, I'll tax your seat
If you get too cold, cold, I'll tax the heat
If you take a walk, walk, I'll tax your feet

That is a really good first pass tillage compared to what I am able to do. :thumbsup:

I don't know what you are running for a tiller, but on this site, people think a tiller is a tiller is a tiller! THAT just isn't true, and folks here buy on price.

The cheapo tillers are just that, and they do NOT till as well as the better tillers, they are NOT as strongly built and won't last nearly as long as a better built tiller, but the cheapoes will run on less HP, and that's why you keep seeing folks here recommend too wide of tillers for these low hp tractors...

IF, you want something that will get the job done faster and last longer, you need to look at a better tiller... Also, better tillers have adjustments that allow you options on how you want the soil tilled that aren't available on cheapo tillers...

This Howard HA, has very close to 2,000 acres under it's belt!

It's never had a bearing, chain or sprocket replaced in it, and it's still field ready right now...

I have heard that the Howard tillers are excellent.
Not too sure how many folks here on TBN will be doing 2000 acres.
Landpride,and others are supposedly very good also.
For twice each year use though, I am very satisfied with the durability of my KK tiller.

That was my thought, too. I also have a single bottom plow and a disk harrow, and the only garden I'll be doing is my own.

You do realize that most people are just tilling their garden and if it takes an hour it would be a pretty big garden.

I agree, you don't need a high end tiller to do a few gardens... But, over and over I keep reading how side gears are better than chains, 17hp tractors can run a 5' tiller and 25hp can run a 6' tiller. And other piles of BS, with no mention of what tiller, and how much use it will get, what kind of conditions it will be used in ect...

Did you take a look at how folks grind their soil nearly into dust and then proudly show picts of it?? lol

You need to know a lot more than how wide is your tractor and what's the hp, but that's about the only questions that are asked.

Give a cheapo tiller some rocks and see how that works out... No, the average guy isn't going to till 2K plus acres, but my point is/was, how tough a good tiller is, and that it can be adjusted to do more than just a few gardens.

Here's another Howard,

I bought that one is the 80's, and it's still on the job, making money and doing my gardens too!
