    I'm in shock... Kubota BX pricing

    I always make money by buying Kubota Tractors new. I use them for 5-10 years and the value goes up and I sell for what I paid or more. Nothing like using new equipment for free. Remember when the new stuff is price high then your used equipment is worth more.

    Has anyone upgraded their Kubota bucket tilt Cylinders?

    Never use a flame from a match to see in the dark. There may be fumes that you are not aware of, and NEVER inspect a drum or tank with a match. Never drive behind or near a cement truck, flatbed trailer, or dump truck, they always have loose rocks that fall off and you’ll lose a windshield...
