Hydrostatic or Gear - Which is better?

[Billc]

GlueGuy,

I did another post this morning about when a gear tractor is better than a Hydro. It's on a thread by someone who was trying to figure out whether to get a M or L series.

You might want to add to that thread. List out the times gears are better than hydros. Think it's under Buying a Kubota.

Thanks,

Bill Cook

Jeezes Harv I never got an invite to come play with his tractor. I think you should surprize the wife and take the little detour./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Might be worth the trip if you could talk the wife into it./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Wasn't it about a year ago you were in Cape May and I wished you congrats then well here is a repeat---

Congrats--20 times to you and the MRS and don't forget to tell that to your wife as well. A darn good woman to stick by you for the long haul!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bet she has some stories to tell over the last 20 years with you Mark. (better not let her read that last sentence for fear of her posting some doozies.)

Yep, I've occasionally done a little fast brake turning when mowing the pasture with the "cruise" set (or more accurately called a speed set device, I think).

And Mark, you may even stay married long enough to decide whether you like it or not./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif I knew it was about time for your anniversary, since tomorrow is our 36th.

Ok Bird I knew that I was forgetting someone---36 congrats to you and your wife!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Don't forget to tell her I gave her 36 congrats. So have you decided if your going to keep her?/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
Bet she could tell some stories about you over the years!!! (Don't let her read that sentence)./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Have a happy day tomorrow

I've been seriously thinking about keeping her, Gordon; just don't want her to find out and get over confident./w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Actually, Bill, there's very little you could say about California that isn't true. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

In fact, living in the San Francisco Bay Area, I am constantly reminded of those Star Trek episodes where they visit one of those massive space stations for a little R 'n' R. There's aliens from all over the galaxy milling around, but everybody takes it in stride. It's pretty much the same thing around here -- eventually you just take it for granted.

Word of warning for you, Mark -- if you're ever out this way, be very careful with phrases like "light in the loafers". Like I said, there's a real mix of lifestyles in this part of the country. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

Oh, and congratulations to both Mark and Bird on your anniversaries. I guess I'm a newlywed around here 'cuz my wife and I celebrated our 14th just a couple of weeks ago. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

hahaha, that was the best analogy of california that I've ever heard Harv!!!

Still just a kid./w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif I knew someone else had an anniversary about the same time as Mark and I, but couldn't remember who (old age I guess). But belated congratulations, anyway!

Bird, you are still a newlywed!! Margie and I celebrate our 40th August the 11th. She really deserves a gold star for putting up with me for 40 years. LOL
