    Recommended Trailer Type for Materials Hauling and Occasional Vehicle Transport

    Rake  York vs CountyLine

    Anybody have experience with the York Basic line of rakes? Local dealer carries them and wants 620.00 for 5' model. Compared to 429.99 for 5' CountyLine at TSC. I looked at the York one and since I really don't know what I'm looking at I figured I'd ask here. Thanks Rob

    HST trans question

    Hello I am starting to look at buying my first CUT. I am leaning towards HST trans but one question has come to mind. Does HST multiply the engine torque like a manual does? Even in automotive auto trans the torque converter does some multiplying. Is this even important in a little tractor...
