    Prices at different TSCs - what gives?

    From an earlier post someone mentioned about getting a 5' KK bush hog for $499 at TSC, I checked the online flyer at my local (Charlottesville, VA) TSC and it was listed for $549, I then checked at another equally close (old CT in Fredericksburg, VA) and their online flyer had it for $599, then...

    Backhoe  ALPS Backhoe

    My brother-in-law has found an ALPS backhoe for sale - around a $1,000 - the seller says that it came on a small Kobota and that it wouldn't do what the owner wanted it to do. So they removed it off the tractor. It has a sub-frame - so it can't be all bad? Does anyone have experience with an...

    Water in Fuel Tank

    Does anyone know a better way to get all the water out of the rear tank on a Ford F350. My son got some real bad diesel on Sunday at our regular filler up. Seems someone didn't check the tanks, and we ended up with rusty water with the 4 gallons he was able to pump. We have pumped the tank...

    JD 790 Rear Hydraulics

    Over in the Tip and Tilt Discussion (Kubota Area) there has been a question of the part number for the rear hydraulic kit for JD 790, its "BM18005" It runs about $160 not incuding installation. I had trouble getting one because of John Deere's inventory policy, if to few in stock, they won't...
