Ballast Question about weights

[MikePA]

I think the moderators do a great job on this site.

Thanks, Dave.

It's all about how something is said, not just what is said.

It's also about how people take things, e.g., assuming offense where none was intended.

Hopefully this forum doesn't become like one other particular one here where if you're not a member of their 'klub', they attack you and whatever brand of tractor you own if you dare post in their forum.

LMAO "Klub" I love that one.... I am sorry for lumping you in with Bob. That was kinda low...

They're a few 'characters' here that have real active imaginations. .......

I've been in touch with MUSA marketing. He's been out of the country, but he'll check into Neil's question and get back to us as soon as he clears his desk of more pressing issues. It is a good topic. I am trying to sell a local guy a 2015HST vs the Kubota B7510. The 2015HST is almost 50% heavier, has more hydraulic flow, position control vs quarter inching, 20% more loader lift, equal PTO HP, etc. We are up against this daily, as is Neil, so the numbers do mean something.

The operating weights we publish do not include front or rear wheel weights. The front weight mounting bracket, not the weights, are included in the operating weight if the tractor comes with this as standard.

I'd like to try and take this thread a different direction and offer some possibly scientific data We can all agree that we love tractors and personally I'd like to own one of each brand, color, origin, but that just isn't possible (with my current income anyway )
.

Owning one of each brand?? What an idea! I need two tractors for mowing. One could be always hooked up to my finish mower. The second would always be on my Brush Bull. I can't stand hooking and unhooking those cutters. A real pain.
