    The Question I forgot to Ask My Dealer - New Hydraulic Implement Start Up

    What Tools Do You Keep On Your Tractor

    Straight forward question with probably unlimited answers :) What tools do you keep on your tractor while out in the field? Any "spare parts" you keep on the tractor while you're out working (pins, clips, shackles, etc...)?

    Question on Kubota's Build and Price Website

    Does the Kubota Build & Price website show all the configurations that are available for the various models? I used the website to build out an L4701, but a 3rd function remote for the FEL was not an option. The third function remote option only appears on the L4760 model. Thanks in advance :)

    Dealer  Positive Comments on Puget Sound Region Dealers?

    Anyone have any POSITIVE comments on the tractor dealers around the Puget Sound Washington region? I'm currently looking at Kubota and LS tractor models, but having read many of the posts here, it seems like the dealership is just as, if not more important, than the brand. Thanks in advance :)

    Uses for a Mid-Mount PTO Besides a Mid Mount Mower or Front Snow Blower?

    Prior to specing out a new compact tractor (35-50 Tractor HP), I would like to know if there are many useful implements that can be run by a mid mount PTO (besides a mid-mount mower or snow blower) in the Tractor HP range I'm looking at?

    Dirt Moving  Question on using a 3pt Scarifier

    Comparing the L4701HST to the MX4800HST???

    Using the Kubota website and "building" these two tractors in a similar configuration results in prices are pretty "close" to eachother. Can someone explain the significant differences between these models (if there are any)? Is one model more suitable to tasks that the other is not?

    Recommendations for Custom Tractor Cover?

    Has anyone had a custom cover (similar to a full truck/car cover) cover made for their tractor? Any recommendations for businesses that do this? Wondering what a "quality" cover for an Kubota L4701 size with a BH92 attached, or a similar sized tractor/loader/backhoe setup would cost.

    Compact Diesel Engine Tractor vs Gas Engine Riding Lawn Mower For Mowing

    I currently use a Husqvarna HST drive, side discharge, 24HP gasoline riding lawn mower (garden tractor style, not zero turn) with a 48" deck. The first mowing of the season, wet grass up to a 1+ foot tall REALLY bogs down the mower and requires a very slow speed to mow. How would an HST drive...

    Going through the Kubota website, I really liked the specs on the B3350 - BUT - read many reports on DPF regen issues. Reports I've read were as new as late 2017.
