Wife made biscuits and gravy and a fruit smoothie this morning. But my most go to breakfast is a scrambled egg hash, with taters, sausage, shredded cheese and some salsa on top. Start my mornings with a cup of coffee, then breakfast a bit after.

I'm reading the reacher books now, started after the TV series came on. Dad was into the dirk Pitt books and Mom was into Steven King. Dad likes to read from the actual book, Mom has a kindle. I buy my books used off ebay, and donate to the library, but mostly donate to those little book...

Bought my traeger 15 years ago, at Costco $749. We love and use it often. From 11hr brisket smokes, to 18 minute Papa Murphy's pizza's. My brother has a Rec tec loves it, and it can sear. I even hear the pit boss is good.

We installed a 22kw Generac, 10years ago. I do the yearly maintenance very easy, oil change, filter etc. At 25 hrs needs valve adjustment then again at 400hrs. Those were pretty easy to do. We have almost 500hrs on it. Power goes off here in the winter, and summer. Great investment. Cost $11,000...

My wife has had a few Tahoe's. 2003, 2008, and currently driving 2017 with 62,000. She loves them. No problems with the 03, or 08, the 17 needed a water pump under warranty and a thermostat last year. They have been great vehicles for us. The 17 is a midnight edition Z71, and has been her...

We used this super slippery stuff 'slipease' I think it was called, pulling wiring through plastic conduit. Mostly nurse call and paging system cable. Worked great until you started getting some out the other side, and could not really pull the wiring anymore, had to wrap it around your arm for...

We like going to the big island, we stay at Hali I Kai. There are minimal people out there, beautiful condos, great restaurant and bar right next to the ocean. Lava Lava beach club is a short drive and awesome. You can walk along the beach/golf course all in and around the Lava rocks. The...

Good luck on your search. I too wanted a sub compact tractor. I looked at JD, Kioti, and Kubota. I was pulling more towards Kubota as I already had an RTV. When I took a break from internet searching, and learning. Went to the dealers and the sub compacts just seemed so small. Like what can I...

I'm really liking this build. Nice job

I have three led area lights from Torchstar, they are on Amazon. They've been a great light, installed in 2021. They are dusk till dawn, and $39 right now.

I ordered a brand new dumpster lid, and fabricated the mount out of black pvc pipes 820754,830069,830070

Lots of the artists in the rrhof are not what I consider rock n roll. I like more heavier rock n roll, wish they had a hof for all different kinds of music. Eric B & Rakim would of hated to be inducted when they were at their height. Imagine if NWA was inducted into the hall of fame in 1995. Or...

Fried bologna sandwich, with a slice of pepper jack cheese, over easy egg. Wash it down with V8

Sorry for your situation, but you really should say something, and ask for a portion of the installation charge to be refunded. You should also check torque on the wheels, loader attach points.

That's awesome, good to hear those stories. Should this go in the we're gonna make it thread? Lol

My Dad was giving me crap. Can't be putting a dumpster lid on a tractor, better paint it orange etc etc. Now he wants one. Especially when I told him, you can flip it around for your backhoe work. He's got a John Deere, told him he better paint it green. Lol

Finished installing mine today. Mounted to 1 1/2" PVC pipe frame, with legs going into 2" pipes. Easy on and off.

Take it to your local exhaust shop, have them fab up something or just straight pipe it.

36X48, just in that plastic wrap.

Just received it todayfed ex

Yep I put cetane but the auto correct demon changed it:LOL:

I've used Amsoil's, diesel all in one, in my tractor, rtv, and truck since new. They claim outstanding detergency, improved lubricity, better cold flow, and higher octane.

Some of the other online places weren't accepting new customers, and I did try ordering from JC the lid was about $30, but shipping was $540, that's not a typo. :unsure:

Reheating things, is our main use. Warming up bread for dinners, garlic bread on spaghetti nights etc.

I tried getting a dumpster lid from my waste management, but they said no for purchasing a new one or looking through their damaged ones. So I looked at a bunch of companies on line. Found one for us west coast peeps. Waste built down by LA. 36"-48" $22.47, $10 shipping.

I second, third, and fourth the shop vac trick. Lost maybe a quarter of a quart, plus I don't feel rushed, and paranoid about cross threading the filter. Had the wife control the shop vac, and I replaced the filter. Easy peasy

We have one of those whole house vacuums. The vacuum is hidden away, we use that sometimes for our dogs. But I have to say the furminator brush is the best, you get so much hair. Our dogs love getting brushed. They try and box each other out when we pull it out, they want it

On Stihl's website, they show the different saws and difference between pro and homeowner. I have 2 homeowner saws. Ms271 and a new ms250. My 271 is 10 years old and cuts about 7 cords a year. I've used my 250 for about 2 cords so far, since xmas. No complaints on either, start right up, and run...

Savemart has snow crab for $4.99lb, got 5lbs. In my Dad's words, 'we gonna mash up some crab tonight boy'.

Love my RTV-X900, 9 years old no problems.

They can be loud, but I'm used to it, driving with the dump bed up is really loud. My shifter has been like that since day 1. Dealer said it will get smoother with time, not true. You just get used to it, doesn't even bother me anymore. Mine is a 2014, never had a problem, it's a workhorse.

Maybe these melt in your hands not in your mouth

Sorry about your health, but I'd go out with a bang. Vegas trip, rent a Hawaii beach condo, spend that million on yourself, hot rods, hot girls and cold drinks

I have a traeger love it. I've heard the electric ones are good too.

I'd be sending them some nice gifts.:devilish:

I actually like the shuffle feature, I usually choose a favorite group 'station's, and they will play them like every forth or fifth song. I have found some new favorites with the songs they play inbetween.

I have lots of dead pine and cedar, harvest in the winter, split and stack and it's ready by the next winter. I have lots of white and black oak, takes a couple summers for the right moisture content for me to feel comfortable to burn. My favorite is the cedar, smells good, burns hot, low ash. I...

We use the Citibank Costco credit card for everything. Never use my debit card, except to get cash out of the ATMs.

I have a Traeger, my brother has a Rec Tec. They both are great, we both use remote thermometers. His seems to keep the temps a bit more accurate. When I'm in smoke mode it can go anywhere from 170-225, which I guess is normal for Traegers.

Looks good, nice job. When I built mine it was my first one too, I watched lots of you tube videos. Lifting the walls and putting up the ridge beam was tough, also putting on the shingles wasn't fun. But so glad I did it myself, and didn't pay anyone

I can't get mine online, won't ship to Ca. But tractor supply sells them in Ca. All my cans have them

I bolted a piece of strap to the end of my log splitter to hold my hookaroon, less bending if a piece falls to the ground.

We have the black, white, and live oak varieties, I still have to use this, the acorn type helps figure it out too

Another one bites the dust-Queen

Who let the dogs out- baha men

I always cook our steaks on the grill, have a traeger. They are always great. But the wife does the filet mignons on the stove top, sears them well, puts them in the oven to finish them off. So good, better than any steakhouse, she just told me they are from a recipe from Ina Garten a food TV...

You should definitely go wireless. I installed this on my rtv, and my dump trailer

I got a call from my dealer, for my 2014 X900, they replaced both rear hubs, and said there was another one coming for the seat belts. Now this was 6 years ago. Never did the seat belts if it was another service update.

Not sure how to remove it. Probably safe to drive on flat surface without carrying anything.

Shiver me timbers!

I tossed paint and stain back and forth as I was building my shed. I ended up painting mine. To match my shop, which matches my house. I rented a paint machine from Kelly Moore, and used their mid grade paint, got a color match for free. Was very easy and fast, it's been two years still looks...

Try and jump start it, probably the battery, enough juice for dash lights etc. Probably wont do the starter clicking like on a car with a dead battery. My RTV had the same problem

We have a couple hole in the wall restaurants. El Rey taco shop, is very small, three tables, but they have a great salsa bar, and the burritos are massive, probably 50 things on the menu, very very good. And Flappys pizza, huge slices like Sbarro in the mall, they have pizzas ready to eat by...

My Kubota dealer sells New Holland too. Probably 70 percent Kubota.

At first I would just chill, maybe take a few weeks to let it settle in. Then definitely pay off all the bills. Now really is not a time to buy anything, but a nice 10 day vacation would suit me. House needs a new roof.

I've pulled started my log splitter like 10 times, remembered the switch started right up. Lol

I am the same about the garage door when we leave. Did I close it? Have had to drive back a few times to check, sometimes a good drive. Now we both pull ahead a bit and confirm the garage door is closed and say it out loud. And we don't pull away till it is closed completely. Lol

Kitchen towels need to be on the oven and dishwasher handle. Not draped over the sink, piled up on the counter.

The ATO at the big box stores are water based only. Have to go to a specialty paint store. Here Kelly Moore has it in stock. Dunn Edward's, or Sherwin William's can special order it if not in stock. Another choice is Armstrong Clark they use a mineral oil base.

Cabot does make a few linseed oil based stains. Their ATO Australian timber oil, and their 3400 series. The ATO at lowes is not the same its water based. Also another brand called Penofin, and Ready Seal all oil based

I bought a jeep top off of Amazon, made my own windshield out of plexiglass that I had custom made from TAP plastics, cheaper than glass, Led lights front and rear, A winch is a must. Front carry rack for tools when the bed is full. I have the worksite model too. I've done lots too it. It's a...

Not sure where I saw this, but I made 2 saw horses out of only 2x4's, I think it was in the Family Handyman magazine. They are sturdy, easy to carry around, and I just throw a sheet of plywood on top. Been doing that for years.

Nowadays you have to open the box in the store for any high priced items. I worked at Lowe's for 3 years, it happened so much. People would purchase something, return it within a couple days. Most of the time it appeared it hadn't been open. The return desk wouldn't open it, back in the...

I have one on my L2501, works great as long as there isn't too much snow. I've used mine for about 8 years. I have a third function for angle, but on the farthest angles the blade does not sit flush. I really like how I can push the snow into big piles, as I don't have a bunch of room to put it...

I just got a 5 gal and a 2.5 gal $119/$63 at my local dealer. Surprised prices haven't gone up much since 200hrs ago, 4yrs

Just watched Top Gun Maverick. Thought it was a good sequel done right. For the first one it was F-14's, wasn't in the Navy yet. For this one I was already out, but as a contractor I worked on a few of those super Hornets at VFA-125. Brought back some good memories as an Aviation Electrician (AE)

Gonna try this, love pickled eggs. Thanks for sharing

If the battery is still in the trailer, jump it with your vehicle, that's a quick test to check your new battery. Does sound like a weak battery though.

Bought a new toilet at lowes. Got it home started unboxing it, and there was like dirt/dust remnants in the bottom of the bowl, oh well didn't think much about it. Got the toilet out, and there was still a portion of a used wax ring stuck to the bottom, the lid was not the one for it etc. So...

My mother in law makes a delicious German potato salad, uses bacon and the bacon drippings. My Mom's potato salad also is good too. She marinates the cooked potatoes overnight in Italian dressing. Have the recipes to both, but I tell ya, it doesn't taste the same.

Tractors in India

Grey poupon on bologna and egg sandwiches for breakfast. Hot dogs and brats get salsa. Wife puts grey poupon in her potato salad.

I for one have been on a good amount of forums, have learned a lot over the years. I too would like some kind of a final response etc from the OP.

Growing up, we had sweet corn right out of the garden. Mom would shuck it, place it in a ice bath for about an hour, then boil them in milk on the stove, Dad and I used butter, salt and pepper, Mom and my brother put mayo on them. Never thought it was weird, just not my way. Now the wife and I...

Uh uh, no way, no how. Glad you got your tiller back. Now go get your $50, if he refuses, there's your reason for next time he asks.

I flew a plane a couple times in the simulator. Flying is the easy part, landing is very tough without ACLS. I crashed into the carrier multiple times. Hard landed at the beach once. We used the simulator for our turn qual training in the Navy. Made me understand what carrier pilots deal with...

Have you tried any of the quickie oil change places, they might sell it

When we bought our house, there was an old metal shed the po used to store firewood in, was probably 1/4 full, I didn't like it, but used the wood, and started to tear it down, in the corner was a cat skeleton, poor guy was probably sleeping in there and got conked on the head, when they were...

I too have been looking at a 4 door sedan, a couple years old is fine, prices seem okay. I too want to drive my HD truck less. I've been spying a 2019 Lincoln continental, such a nice looking car

I have browning's, they are great cameras. Take really great pics and videos.

fits perfect on my pj 6X12 dump trailer

I voted no, I like how it's being run.

For many years we had an old washer drum, already has the holes and works great

Our pricing fluctuates, we usually call them when it gets to about 50%. Seen anywhere from $2.79-$4.12

Unfortunately that's the case with newer equipment. I also got mine at lowes, it was damaged in shipment, I was working there at the time, the customer who ordered it, just had another ordered, I got a great deal on it, the damage was a pallet fell on top and broke the gas cap off. Paid $499 for...

I have the husky st224, it's a great snowblower, starts on the first pull, throws the snow pretty far. My neighbor has a Toro seems just as good.

I definitely can see better in my 3500, going forward and backing up with those awesome mirrors, and the HD back up camera, it still fits in the footprint of my 1500 where I park in the driveway. Only thing I can't go through the drive up atm. Its definitely a car atm lol.

I concur the wicked tooth bar is strong, I've dug up rocks, and small boulders, backdrag using the teeth on gravel with the weight of the tractor on it, seems indestructible. Very happy with my purchase.

It says to use cf or higher in the manual. I use amsoil signature max duty synthetic 15w-40.

I have 6 acres, my rtv-x900 is a beast. It does everything I need. Since your farm is flat it will go 25mph, hydraulic dump bed is ****.

Could you run the magnetic lights to the top of the mower? Can you get some cones or a sign like the road crews use. Park your tow vehicle with the flashers going.

Don't have many around here, but if I'm with the wife, I definitely drive around it a few times till she has to say Stop lol

1980 Plymouth Champ

What's a pirates favorite letter of the alphabet? You might think it's the R but it is the C

Why are pirates angry? Cause they RRRRRRR

Mosquitoes and gnats, they both can be eradicated.

I like mayo on sandwiches, no miracle whip. I miss the good hoagies and grinders from back home. There should NOT be mayo on an Italian sandwich

Can you put the other at a neighbour's house

Never really got into the Olympics, I sometimes watch football and golf.

Yes, it's rare when I full angle it. I do have the poly bolt on edge. I do quite a lot where I use the full weight on the blade while scraping ice. That poly edge is pretty durable, but wouldn't use it for gravel, but dirt or mulch would probably be okay.

I have that blade with only the single cylinder, works great, when angled fully one way or the other, it kinda twists up on the other side, like it wont fully contact your surface, straight on or slightly angled, it has full contact. I only have used it for snow on pavement.

I grew up and went to school with Cindy Crawford, she was 1 year behind me. She was a co-captain and captain cheerleader. We ran track together for one year. Haven't talked to her since probably 1986. Yes she did cheer for me for a couple years, but probably has no clue who I am anymore. Lol

4.15 diesel 4.45 reg 4.65 plus 4.75 super

No problems for me

Any hills you will need to do low gear. I installed the hand throttle kit, and it keeps the rpms in the sweet spot, but if you floor it same thing happens, you have to like feather it, let off a bit, and back on a bit. Watched some you tube videos for turning up the gas, it felt like it had a...

If you are getting mold on the wood it needs cleaned and sealed. But first you need to seal the block, as that is where the moisture Is coming through. A couple products seal krete but better is ugl drylok. The regular holds back 4psi, but the extreme holds back like 15psi. Also a vapor barrier...

My Dad loves his. Says it can be too small for some things, but makes it work.

They should be in your manual. It definitely can be hard to find all of them. If there is a grease fitting like the two you show, grease em. I bought these yellow grease cap/covers from lock N lube, so once I found them all, they are easily found next time.

Don't worry guys I speak gibberish. Airplane lol

That's a weird one, I've only heard of the third brake light bulb keeping it from working. Maybe the filament is broken, but when it's cold vs. Hot it's making contact

Yes I would find a buddy with a truck, I'd be afraid of jacking up the HST or as others have said, not being able to stop 10,000lbs. Good luck with the move

Had a buddy that would take it to the dealer for his maintenance. Then he would crawl all over it, making sure it was done right, put a mark on the oil filter, to see if they changed it etc, once he found the air filter was still dirty, had leaves and debris inside the canister went ballistic...

That's one of the things my dad taught me to do. He takes his vehicles in now since he's older, I will continue too until I can't. I agree with Steve too many horror stories, from quickie places to stealerships

No blue book that I know of. You could check prices online for similar tractors, or tell a dealer you want to trade it in on a new one, get their quote add about $3000 then sell it on craigslist

Maybe something to do with your pug, nickname for him

We recently got a pj d3 dump trailer. It weighs 2300lbs empty. I have hauled many things, firewood, gravel and my Rtv-x900.

It's not rocket surgery, or brain science. Biff was the original misquote Why don't you act like a tree, and get outta here

Congratulations

Yes shady, glad you left

Have you seen some of the beautiful concrete counter tops. Some turn out amazing.

Gonna depend, but it's the best one we sell. Comes in different sheens as well.

Sealcrete concrete sealer.

Worked for me, wife held the shop vac, while i changed the filters, still lost some fluid, maybe half a quart. Got to take my time, as I was worried if I hurried I'd cross thread it.

I did look at a comparable Kioti when I was shopping. I did like the seating area, seemed bigger and more space, plus it had mirrors, and some extra stuff the Kubota didn't have. But I really liked the seating area on the Kubota, everything seemed like it was in the right spot for me, Didn't...

As a kid in MD, I'd get poison ivy bad, used to take Clorox baths, doctor would give me vitamin A shots. Now out here in CA we have poison oak, some of the vines going up trees are 5"s around, I do get it some but not as bad, I have a designated set of tools, ie hand saw, dig bar, shovel, and a...

I did the same as you, but at the time the Kioti dealer was pushing some HD implements (woods) i think and the price was pretty close to Kubota. I already had an RTV so stayed with Kubota. I am not surprised by your quote, implement pricing can very. Good luck

My mother kept all my letters I wrote while in the Navy, some of the bootcamp ones were hilarious. And she made albums from the pictures I chose to send. Sometimes the wife and I will break out that stuff on a weekend.

A 67 nova, or any year superbee

I have the X900 it's a 2014, it's been a great workhorse. I've done anything and everything with it. Never has let me down.

Utility knife, with a couple new blades. I used a cardboard template, then once I had the mat cut out and in place, crawled under and used a sharpie to mark the holes. A kinda dull drill bit, that would heat up and melt the mat as it went through. Then on the bottom side I used a step bit to...

I had previously done the spray rattle can bedliner but wasn't holding up, and was still slippery hopefully this will be better.

Made these from the thinner size stall mats at tractor supply. Stole another person's idea, but definitely a keeper.

I initially bought a 12 gauge browning bps stalker. But really like my S&W 40 with a streamlight on the rail in my nightstand.

You will like it. I'm so glad I got mine. Doing the mods is fun. I installed forward and rear lights, battery tender, grill guard from superjet511 on the orange forum, did spray on bed liner on the step and foot wells, but now working on mats from a stall mat, right side handle, etc. Its done...

I was crawling around under my L2501 today and found a few more zerk fittings. While greasing I came across this big nut with (not sure what to call it) a movable pin. Looks like some kind of vent maybe, but I'm not sure. Any ideas. Thanks

Did my 200hr today. Replaced the hydraulic oil, transmission oil, and both hst filters. The hydraulic oil came out pretty clean, guess those filters were working good. Now the transmission oil was pretty cloudy, and dark kinda gray, had just a small amount of metal on the magnetic plug. The...

So my 2014 rtv-x900 just got something new that happened. When it is on or just the key on to use the glow plugs, I get a constant left blinker light and seatbelt light. Now keep in mind that this vehicle has neither of those options. Going through the wsm schematics, I see that both of those...

I have a third function valve and handle with switches for left and right angle on my snowplow blade. When I tried it out, it really flies left and right with the buttons. My question is there a way to slow down the movement? I couldn't find anything in the third function valve paperwork, but it...

I saw someone did this on theirs, but did it to mine today. Was surprised how thin the paint was as I was sanding down those areas. I was going to remove them to do it, but looked like a pain. So I carefully masked off everything, only had to pull the hst pedal.

Hey everyone, love all the info, been reading this site for sometime. I have a new tractor coming very soon. L2501 hst, 4X4, fel, land pride snow trip blade, and a land pride quick hitch. Have been enjoying my Rtv-x 900 for 4 years now. Bill
