    A day in the life of a Kubota BX25D

    Filling tires on the BX

    I am only really thinking about this because I am working in areas with black locust trees. And those thorns. I think those thorns have armor penetrating ability. Anyway. I know it will make the tractor more heavy. This machine is also used for mowing. Now I mow a field, and have a...
