If you want a less expensive tractor storage solution... you might consider a "portable shelter"...

Farmtek makes & sells some nice units... the covers are put together right here in CT by their subsidiary ClearSpan near Hartford... they have shelters at that location you can see... they make their own galvanized pipe in Iowa...

They also sell "closeouts" at their website ScroungeCentral.com

I just bought a closeout round-top 2-car garage from them... CL102992... 26' wide x 28' deep x 12' high... includes (2) 9' wide x 8' high entry doors with door openers... extra extra heavy 16 ounce fabric (standard is 10 or 12.5 ounce)... 4' center rafters... rachet style cover tie downs... pipe is galvanized in & out...
$1,295 closeout price... also got (10) ground anchors and driver... (2) gable vents... 720 sq. ' 16mil poly flooring... shipping & CT tax for ~$1,725 total...

They have 17 of these left as of Nov 7, 2003... they had 24 2 weeks before this when I ordered...

Sounds like a nice rig. I just bought a Kubota 3240, HST+ 4x4, FEL w/QA, sunshade, Bush hog 84" RD finish mower & picked uo a 6' galvanized box blade at the feed store. My dealer said my tractor can swing a 6' bush hog, but with HST its PTO only nets about 25hp. I hear if folks that bushhog with 6' cutters on 22hp yanmars and all kinds of tractors, then read here the 6' Bush Hog rotary cutter needs at least 30 pto hp, and on another thread here on TBN, that Bush Hog brand gear boxes draw more hp than others. I guess I will find out someday when I get a bush hog. I think I will rent one and try it first to make sure I have the pto hp. Thanks for the info in your post.
