    Now this is a tractor!

    And I see that; reported.

    Have you ever bought a tractor from a listing in another state, not in person?

    A 9 mph top speed in high, but it's got great hydraulics for a machine of it's size. The one large hydraulic pump seems to make things a little jerky, but 3 years in I am well used to it. Overall I'm quite happy with it, and more so I have a great dealer. I checked out a CK3520 not long ago...

    How are you liking the CK3510? Sometimes I kick myself for going with the 2610, but most of the time it's enough for me. It's just a little slow- but so am I.

    Gin and Tonic fans? What's up with tonic water these days?

    I started out with Bombay Sapphire, then when I found 10 that became my go-to. Occasionally I would pick up a bottle of Cold River; it's local, so I don't know where it is available, but any of you folks that still drink ought to give it a shot. Makes for an excellent G&T...

    Ford Recalling Super Duty Pickups, Issues 'Do Not Drive' Warning for Brakes That Can Suddenly Fail

    I really like my '19 just fine, no real itch to replace her. That's convenient, because my wallet would have words with me. That new interior is some nice, though. I hate how often I find myself saying this, but post-COVID manufacturing sure seems to be lacking.

    Owning a small tractor is a blessing.

    I came home from work today to find the garage looked... different. Something was off with the driveway as well. This wasn't exactly where I left it either. My wife and kids decided to prank me, and the missus learned to operate the Kioti from a YouTube video. It's not as easy to start...

    Owning a small tractor is a blessing.

    It's my in-laws property, we are just blessed to live here at an extremely affordable rate; it's the house my wife grew up in. My father-in-law is the groundskeeper at an estate and him and his wife live on the property in a lovely little house, and as such various family have lived in their...

    Owning a small tractor is a blessing.

    I am told there is something with the heating and cooling that pushes them to the surface, but I know damn well the ground forms them out of sheer spite. That rock wasn't there before.

    Brought 57 cub home today

    All that dead weight up that angle, yeah, doesn't look fun to me. Glad you're getting the old girl fixed.

    Owning a small tractor is a blessing.

    It's bringing back a lot of memories from when I was a kid, a lot of remembering how much I hated picking up rocks... Thankfully, now I have my own children.

    Owning a small tractor is a blessing.

    After two years of inactivity I broke the garden plot up; a box blade is not the best tool for the job, but it's what I have. This rock came as a bit of a surprise when the shanks caught it.

    Gin and Tonic fans? What's up with tonic water these days?

    You know what, that sounds pretty good; I never thought to drink tonic without gin.

    Gin and Tonic fans? What's up with tonic water these days?

    I don't drink anymore, but when I did, gin and tonic was my drink, and Polar was my tonic. I'm in Maine, so it's damn near local to us.
