    Three children, one adult dead in farm tractor crash in York County, PA.

    I get your meaning. How many times i can get the chills when i think about what might had happened in so many chances? Too many… 40+ years ago my brother wasn’t lucky. It is just so gripping when you learn about these horrors. For those that paid, what would they do different if life gave...

    power tool recommendation

    i have a generac. Good machine but poorly laid out. pull rope is awkward. the hose connection is in a strange place making it very awkward to move. i would not recommend it for that reason alone.

    Charging for Bush Hogging/Clearing Around Retention Ponds

    Only way I would do a contract is allowing me to mow it first. It is only fair of the customer to agree. No way would i do it without knowing what is required. are you doing it as a favor or to make money?

    First electric tractor ride

    If I were to purchase a new machine, I would definitely buy one. The points made by MossRoad alone would sell me. As long as it uses smart technology to safely keep the battery in a ready state without wrecking my monthly bill. Obviously, a medium to large business would have several reasons...

    JD 1050 - LABOR COST for cleaning and reinstalling injectors?

    I am old school. If i faced paying 2k for finishing that particular job, i would consider that i am being ripped off. At most, it should only take 4-5 hours for the whole job. Three days to clean three injectors… nah I would be buying a repair manual and making friends with youtube…

    Looking at a 2018 John Deere 2025r

    I am sure there are some who would dissagree, but I would never go with a small tractor that has a belly mower. why not have two toys? a zero turn and a tractor like the one in question. mowing hills is a challenge regardless of equipment used. the tractor will fill more needs simply due to...

    Guy uses fake check to steal Massey tractor...recognize him?

    The pictures should get him caught in short time. Based on the amount,that should bring in the FBI,maybe ATF whoever deals with counterfetting. . Surly he will get caught... Got to admit in this day and age, it either took zero brain cells or huge gonads... maybe both.

    Kubota still offering 0 percent financing

    So many choices but it sounds like the additional warranty will be needed to insure the deal. The fact that everything in the deal is dynamic and changes due to delivery timeframe is new to me. Since You cant lock In, that would cause me to wait because of my finances. I have to know what i am...

    Kubota still offering 0 percent financing

    a poor man's perspective: 0% gives the illusion of getting a deal. I know they aren't giving money away and they are only in the buisness to MAKE money. It is a way of justifying the cost even when you know you are bending over. Isn't that the whole purpose of even having it - to create the...

    Kubota B8200D -- am I giving it away?

    You are a good person for caring either way it turns out. If it was me, i would ask his reason for buying - if not known. If he said to sell it and make money, that changes everything. I see good deals sold on fb regularly that was grabbed up by someone and then see it relisted for a lot more...

    Kubota B26 Backhoe lines - a PITA

    It is a huge pain to reconnect the hydraulic lines when re-attaching the hoe. it almost makes it impractical to do. There just isn't any slack and difficult. I am wondering if there is a short line with the connectors to buy that would add a few inches. Thanks

    What causes this pine tree problem?

    It looks like termites or ant trails to me. After having had 40 pines trees removed I would never recommend planting them as some have suggested. They are a nuisance tree. They cannot be used for firewood. they will not let grass grow and their pine needles are a pain to deal with. Spring...
