Thanks TBN, new 7510

[jplohio]

After using this site for several months, I just went and got my new 7510 with a loader, mmm, rear blade and box scraper last Friday. For months I considered the 7510 against the JD x585 and 2210. But, after considering all aspects, the 7510 was right for me. I already have an old JD 316 and it still mows fine, so I opted for the loader and 3ph capacity of the 7510. I haven't used it much yet but after having used the box scraper to fix my stone drive, I already love it. I plan to use it for snow removal in the winter and general loader and box scraper work in the summer as well as use the mower for the barn yard and creek area. The fact that a friend of mine has a 7510 and he is happy with it and let me play on it also helped me decide on it. Thanks again.

Great choice..... Although I might be a little biased.... /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif. I've had mine for close to 3 years now and it has done WAY more than I ever dreamt it would do.

Have fun and be safe,
Greg

I had a picture attached yesterday, but then proceeded to delete it when I re-formatted my hard drive. Also, I took the picture with too much resolution and have just now got the file size below 100kb. I would like pointers on attaching pictures, as I have never done it before. Here is my latest attempt at it. Incidentally, I am going to add some lights for nightime work, as the loader seems to block a lot of headlight output. Thanks on your patience while I figure out the ropes of posting.

Enjoy it as it will do almost anything!

jplohio -

Nice B7510! Looks like a nice selection of implements too!!

Here's a link to PIXResizer - a nice, simple freeware tool that lets your resize digital images (& even change file type - ex. bmp --> jpg) - another TBNer had linked this awhile back - I've been using it ever since! It works great for keeping pics under the 100K size limit while maintaining the best quality - also good for making a small picture for your "signature" as well.

Enjoy!

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( I would like pointers on attaching pictures, )</font> ifind the easiest thing to do when taking pics that I KNOW i want to post or email is to set camera to lowest quality res. then you don't have mess with it. on occasion when you do have a big filw , open any photo editing prigrean and Resize/adjust photo to 640x480 that usually gets you under the 100kb

Heh, I couldn't help chuckle at the similarities. I was looking to upsize from a JD GT275, and got hung up on the x585 for a while too. But couldn't justify the price as a mower only, considering you can get the 2210 for about the same. That got me looking at scuts, then cuts, then the 7510, and ultimately a 7610 for the bigger loader. Congrats on yours, I'm hoping the Easter Bunny delivers mine SOON... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Thanks for the link and the pic advice. BTW, my fifteen year old son and I had a ball using it yesterday, enjoying the first decent day weather-wise. I think my wife is jealous of the thing. Until I get my shed fixed up (seal it up so the sparrows aren't making a mess) the Kubota has displaced the family van in the attached garage. You've got to have your priorities straight.
