    Does anyone know where I can get a new set of blades for my Tuffy 5 foot brush hog? I think its a cheap version of a Rhino. And I also think they are not made any longer. thanks

    Kioti is boring

    We have a very boring section. Nothing ever fails on our tractors to talk about. The other sections sure have alot to talk about and I spend alot of time reading them saying to my self "I'm sure glad our section is so boring".
