Have the 60 inch land pride, does a good job too. Get the heavy duty model, weight is important.

Bought my Ram truck diesel from Dave Smith; just turned 400,000.

Tried plowing snow with my L Kubota front loader but the snow builds up quick making the wheels spin. As a kid I pushed snow using the 8N with a 5ft rear blade at angle and whith chains on the tires. The snow, if not biting to deep sort of went to the side as I drove.

fees make money without the public getting a say. Any and all political boards can put on a fee for just about anything. If votors would stop electing these fee mongers we could have way less of them. They have set us up by where anything can be judged an enviormental issue theyby adding a fee...

So why do webmasters disallow free speech? It's pretty easy to say something in disagreement just so it's said in a polite manor and without hate toward others or using fowl language. The word tariff in itself is political, it comes via political decisions made by politicians.

Our biggest issue with app these days is the printed circuit boards fail, and they are expensive to replace. Our old app were mechanical and worked well for a much longer period, they were real steel, cast and copper all made here in america and with very little alum and plastic that helps in...

Threads like this are great, so much info comes from them!

I too would not like it if having JD. JD seems to have enough buyers though; maybe they are ok with being locked out of their tractors computers.

bears try and get our plums every year along with some apples and blueberries.

After 2000hrs on my Kubota open station I bought a new kx40 with cab, extra buckets. My US mower went right on no problem, one great machine with heat and air, got so tired of being cold, wet and hot!

Well, there used to be many post here about folks buying new tractors, now we see few. Glad to see you are wanting one. I'd say there is no best time other than specials we sometime see in late summer. That never worked for me because the unit I wanted never went on sale.

I would check for how much plastic and alum might be in it's contruction. I like taking a good magnet along when looking at anything these days. What is the hydro casing made of, things like that.

Maybe we beat the issues by investing in the companies that are screwing us, then buy new appliances more often with the profits.

Had to replace our 40 year old Maytag washer that still worked ok but was noisy as H--- with lots of vibration. We bought the mechanical Speed Queen model with no circuit boards and it has been great for three years.
