    Compact "Root Rake Grapple" Options

    After reviewing all the options, this is what I've ordered. Delivery sometime this summer. Who knows when. 🤷‍♀️ The Homestead Implements and Virnig were very interesting to me, but Virnig has a long production timeline and HI is pricey.

    Compact "Root Rake Grapple" Options

    Hi. I'm seeking a compact ROOT RAKE grapple for my Kubota LX2610. This is different from a root grapple as the tines are shorter; please don't confuse the two. Most of the manufacturers I've contacted are backed up 12-16 weeks for production timeline, and I'd like something sooner if possible...

    Need Tractor/Truck Recommendation

    BOOM! And just like that I'm the proud new owner of an LX2610 with FEL, 3rd function valve & box scraper. :cool: Going to keep the zero turn and, for now, the crappy plow truck. It's in stock at a sister dealership 90min from my house so should be delivered soon. YAY! I'm going to get this...

    Need Tractor/Truck Recommendation

    Yes, DEFINITELY not getting another diesel truck! Located a nice little Tacoma yesterday with low mileage in good condition and great price. My mechanic is going to look at it on the lift today. *fingers crossed*

    Need Tractor/Truck Recommendation

    JD dealer trying to sell me on 1025r and Kubota dealer trying to sell me on BX23S. Someone on here mentioned the spade attachment, and elsewhere someone recommended me a trenching bucket. These seems like phenomenal solutions to me, accomplishable in the $1k range as opposed to a $5-9K backhoe...

    Need Tractor/Truck Recommendation

    Thanks to all for chiming in and trying to help a girl out! Ok. Here's what I'm thinking. I'm going to sell the F250 and keep the zero turn. The cost of a front snowblower and cab is about 2/3 of what it would cost to get a decent, cheap plow truck, and then I'll still have that 3rd vehicle and...

    Need Tractor/Truck Recommendation

    0 tractor experience female here. Trying to decide if I need a tractor & if so what size/attachments. I've been doing some research but I'm overwhelmed by the options and all the different tractor lines within each brand. I also have the problem of having $50k taste on a $30k budget. :rolleyes...
