So used a sxs, 4 wheeler and a old kubota to instal main feeder 3/4" irrigation lines for so called precision drip irrigation for my "test plot" of 200 hundred Xmas trees yesterday and today. Planting trees utilizing ATVs to pull trailers and the final 1/4" lines plus trees later this week to field.

Beech makes great firewood. BTU content is higher than Red Oak, significantly higher than Red Maple, almost as high as Sugar Maple.

It also has a relatively low moisture content when green (almost as good as Ash). And it dries relatively quickly.
Thank you. Fortunately, at this point, all of the good beech on my property are very healthy, and I love the look of a forest with beech in it. If any of them die, they're going straight on the wood stack.

The more I see these smaller Honda UTVs, the more interested I get. I think thats what I will buy when a UTV becomes a something I need to buy.

The newer ones have a dump box in back instead of rack and 20 more cc plus switchable paddle shift or full auto. I'm problaby getting a new one with dump box before dec 31, keeping the old one and taking it to our place up north to rec ride mostly cuz it's been super reliable, know it's complete service history, and I really enjoy driving it down here not to mention the functional accessories I put on it. To bad the small pioneers 500 and 520 cc didn't come with oem power assist steering though. Which would be very helpful for slow speed close quarter maneuvering.

There are aftermarket power steering units that can be installed. However, I have not found the need for it our Honda Pioneer 520 (and my wife is not complaining, which is the real test).

We bought a 700 with the power steering. Huge difference and just a little wider & heavier. We needed the second row seating, which converts to a decent tilt bed when it's just me using it

I needed 50" max width for what I use it for.

Is there supposed to be a receiver hitch?
