How Many Have More Than One Tractor?

[Molalla1]

Yes I have 9 of different denominations . . .

I just have two small ones, A BX2230 and a JD430 Diesel.

I find that tractors are kind of like wasabi, Pringles, or cocaine...
You start with a little bit which then leads one to find justification to get more

Just dusted off the Cub for annual Christmas duty...

It's been in the 1865 barn since New Year's.

Added a little gas and started with the hand crank...

It's beginning a lot to look like Christmas!

Only two

I love that old JD990. I wanted to buy one of those years ago when they were new but never did.

Nice to have common filters... and friends at the parts counter.

I have an L4200 which i recently bought. I've had a Bobcat 763 for years. other than that just the JD LA120 mower. I take the deck off that one and pull a small spray cart to keep the tumbleweeds down.

Having two makes a lot of tasks that require implement changes be a lot more efficient. With two sizes and open vs cab it lets me choose the right one for a job.

I’ve had my Boomer 30 for a decade, but needed more horsepower and wanted a cab for snowblowing so I got an LS MT347.

I still use the Boomer as much as the LS. And it will be nice to leave the loader on Boomer this winter when the front snowblower is on the LS.

From what I see, the majority of tractor owners here and everywhere else have only one tractor.

I mean more than one that runs, you maintain, and use regularly... (Don't count the old broke down one behind the barn with 2 flats. )

Surprisingly, after replacing my 2 previous tractors with newer, more improved ones, I find I have have about the same hours on both new ones.

I'd hate to have to choose between them, if I had to pick only one. I really have a use for both.


How many of you are multiple machine owners? Could you get by with just one? Which one would you pick if you had to?

I own and operate 3 M series Kubota's Only reason I have 3 is I don't like switching implements and all my implements (hay tools) have complex hook up's with multiple hydraulic connections and in the case of the bailers and mowers, computer interfaces where the control consoles are inside the tractors and not easily removeable. Much easier for me to have dedicated units dedicated to a single implement and at 73, I don't much care for hooking up and unhooking heavy implements anyway.
