Sorry for my continued ignorance, I'm not into pills too much ... is the "blue pill" the one that helps a certain demographic feel more like a man? Or is it the one where the city folks have snot running down their faces?

Little over the top HomeBrew... just kidding around It's a running joke in my family when someone shows the #$@ a little too much. Sorry if I hit a nerve, by the way I'm talking perscription meds my man not the down town snot running kind.
I don't roll like that cuz P.S. i think the BX series is great just a little small for 8 acres but again that's my opinion.

I guess Timber. In all fairness mabye he thought it was a sarcastic attack on the entire BX world. I can assure everyone by NO MEANS was it an attack and I have a real respect for those machines, again just trying to lighten up. Lately that's what I've been told to do by some others in these threads (you know who you are ). Then when I do I get flamed....oh well I've got thick skin and I've been called much worse by lesser folks. Could also have been HomeBrew had a little too much HomeBrew
Happy New Year!!!

Hi Guys!
I haven't thrown much into this thread lately. Got kind of tired of the discussions. There didn't seem to be much useful info. I'm a little bored this evening so maybe it's "time to stir the pot" some more? No shots here, no offense intended, but let's get things out in the open before someone makes an expensive decision at least partially based on what could be shaky information.
I hope everyone considering buying a tractor, implement ,etc. will take the time to do thorough research as to what they personally need and more importantly what they want. Forums like this can be a good source but I would caution anyone to be careful of the quality of the information. Obviously, there aren't a lot of professional farmers or tractor operators hanging around this forum. I'm sure there are some experienced and accomplished members with tremendous knowledge. Unfortunately, some of the opinions thrown out here are from people with little or no first hand experience in the subject and its difficult to sort out which is which.
What can or can't be done with a particular piece of equipment depends to a great extent on the skill, determination and often foolhardiness, of the operator. These machines don't run themselves and all operators are definitely not created equal.
I find it interesting that people will offer advice on almost any subject. Many can issue these opinions in such an authoritative manner that it leads readers to assume they are expert on the subject. I often wonder about the advisor's credentials and experience. In other words, are they basing their advice on something real, or just what they think based on some "facts that everyone knows"? Have they ever actually operated the particular machine doing the kind of project at hand? No problem with expressing "thoughts". Just do everyone a favor and qualify the advice as personal experience or as a "thought" based on something else.

Thats kind of a broad blanket comment. I think most people speak from the experience they have with the equipment they own or have owned or the things they learned on the own investigation of the same kind of purchase. I am sure there are people that talk to hear themselves talk but it is not fair to assume most people hear don't know what they are talking about. I personally grew up om a 500 acre farm but only have a small horse farm myself. Farming is a very different application than most people on this board do these days. So farming experience does not apply to most people hear. These tractors we are talking about in this thread are more designed for 1 to 20 acre property's were people are homesteaders or landscapers. I think everyone in this thread as offered a great deal of good information and opinions from there experience regardless if it was a subcompact or a compact tractor. We live in a time were these tractors are rather new to this demographic. 20 years ago compact and subcompact tractors were not available to anyone so with there creation of this type of tractor also came a new market of owners. This thread has nothing to do with farm equipment or the farming industry. Farm equipment is usually purchased with specific task plans, that is why commercial farms have several pieces of equipment. But now we are on a different subject.
