OK, I admit it, I,m New

[BucketHoe]

Yes, I'm new here. I lurked here for a couple of weeks while thinking about buying a tractor and finally registered.

I'm located in Rhode Island, alright you people from Texas don't laugh, I know the Dallas Metroplex is bigger than Rhode Island, but at least I can say I live near a really big lake that stretches all the way to the coast of England.

Anyway, I only have 3 acres, but there are a bunch of little things that need to be done. During my tractor search I looked at JD, Kubota, TYM and Kioti. I chose Kubota, and just ordered a B3030 with FEL and BH75 backhoe. I also ordered a Sundown mechanical thumb which I will weld on once it comes in. I'll try to attach a picture of a Sundown thumb, that the dealer had just installed on someones tractor. Hopefully I'm doing the attachment correctly.

I would like to say Thanks for the information I was able to find while lurking here along with my research of the different brands that helped in my selection. Once I get my B3030, I will try to participate here in a productive manner.

Timber,

Just outside of Westerly. During my time lurking here I watched your video and I'm thinking that a box grader may come in handy for me at some time.

I learned alot from many of you here while lurking.

Welcome to tbn and congrats on the new tractor. I ordered a B3030 yesterday myself. They will share a birthday

Oh and don't let the Texan's give you too hard a time - They've been known to have ego problems
