I am trying to decide between an artsway or a what I believe to be a bush hog brand finish mower or a good old woods. Both of the pictured mowers are 6' and fairly old. To me the attached photo is a bush hog, but not sure. The artsway they are asking $550 and the bush hog they are asking...

Just bought this B7100 over the weekend and was moving some dirt around the yard with the loader while the backhoe was on the 3pt. I started noticing some intermitent noise coming from the rearend. It almost sounds like the lugs on the rear wheels are loose, but when I shake the tractor side...

I have found one of these w/ 1100 hours. It is 4x4 w/ a Kubota FEL, 4 ft Befco PTO tiller and a Kubota 3pt backhoe (not sure of the model). I drove to look at it tonight and had a chance to run the tractor, loader and hoe. I actually like the whole set up. The hoe is a little big for this...

I just purchased a new Ferris and love it. I tried out a Hustler Fastrak 21/54 and a Country Clipper 21/54 while looking at the Ferris. Hustler has a great warranty at 4 years for personal residential and the others just have 2 years. The Hustler dealer that is closest is a tool rental place...

I am looking for any info on where to get the yellow stripe decal that wraps around the very front of the hood on the 790. Mine has a deep scratch from the previous owner pushing something with the the loader. Thanks, Russ

I finally got to see what the 790 would do power wise. I plowed my garden and sweet corn patch, a little over 1 1/2 acres with a Ferguson 3x14 plow. I ran in low 4th with the front wheel assist engaged. I was amazed at how well it did. It bogged down a couple times but, other than the...

I have a 790 with the two way remote for the loader. I am looking at having an extension made to get from the outlets under my right platform front to go over the right rear axle to the back of the tractor. Has anyone done this? I called the local dealer and they said the one Deere makes is...

I just purchased an '04 790 with 158 hours on it. I purchased it at a private sale for $9500 with a 300 loader. It also came with a 5' JD rotary mower that looks like around the same year. However, the mower has been ran through the ringer. It actually has a circular groove wore into the top...
