    Recycled Asphalt (Free) or buy crusher run

    So I have about 400 feet of dirt / Clay driveway that I plant to put a surface on. I have been pricing gravel and crusher run and I am about to pull the trigger to have it brought in and spread at about 4-6 inches the fuill length. HOWEVER, I woke up this morning and highway 701 is being redone...

    Grading  Box Blade woes and floating

    So in the past week or so I have had about 30 hours seat time and it has been LOVELY. I feel like a big kid. I dug a trench, hauled things, scraped concrete and it has been a joy. 2 days ago my wife says, "You bought it to fix the driveway, can you please go fix the driveway?" So I went out...

    Oil & Fuel  L2501 Gas station Diesel

    So this morning I was at the local Gas station filling up my Gas Cans with dielsel for my new Tractor. My neighbor pulls up and says, "You better not be putting that in your Kubota unless you want to tear up the engine." I asked if he was serious and he said yes. Then the guy at the pump next to...

    New L2501 owner, wanted to thank you all!

    Here she is! I am trying to think of a good name for her. I think we need a little more bonding time out in the woods before I come up with something that sticks, LOL.

    New L2501 owner, wanted to thank you all!

    So this past Friday they delivered my new L2501. I want to thank everyone for help in making my decision on which model to buy! I won't lie, I was very intimidated getting in the front seat, but after 15 minutes I could not get off this thing. My FEL is already scratched up from knocking down a...

    LS XG3025, does this pricing sound right to you?

    There is an LS dealer about 140 or so miles from me who is selling a new LS XG3025 with a FEL, Rough Cutter and 5 foot box blade and a 16' dual axle trailer for $16,288. The Kubota I was looking at was well over 23000, and obviously no trailer. Does this sound like a ploy to get people in the...

    Dirt Driveway - Looking for assistance with ruts

    So one of the main reasons I want a tractor is so I do not have to deal with constantly begging people or paying people to fix issues with my driveway. I have a 350 - 400 foot driveway that was originally cut lower than the surrounding area. During the process of building the home, the...

    Front-End Loader  Probably a foolish question but I have to ask... Implements across brands

    So I am looking at getting a Kubota. I went to a dealer and prices an l2501 with a FEL and a 5ft finish mower. After discounts the price is about 21,900 not including taxes. Anyway, I was glad to have the numbers to crunch so that I knew what I was dealing with being that I will mostly likely be...
