What have you messed up, with your tractor? Including ROPS into garage...

I was loading wood chips into the bed of my old truck with the bucket high enough to clear the side when the dang gophers suddenly dug a hole in line with one of my wheels causing me to suddenly dent the top edge of the bed as the one wheel sunk down.

Are you familiar with the demise of the bulldozer in the movie "Tremors"??
Did it look like that?? :confused2:

I've had the corner of a house with siding , shift over from frost I guess and crack the siding while I was plowing. We have bad frost here.

When I first got my M4700 it had a nice heavy duty steel canopy.

After a couple months of use my son decided to trim some tree branches and gave is a raised eyebrow.
Note leading left corner of canopy.

So when I decided to take the tractor from Alexandria, Va to Mississippi I took the canopy off.

Which was just as well, because my prime pickup bed unloading area is in a shed where the ROPS just BARELY clears.

And my woods are fairly thick with a lot of vines and a canopy would be a hindrance.

I have a friend who was cutting land and went between a power pole and guide wire going to the ground and ripped the canopy off. The guy he was helping questioned him why would you go through there? He said I did it the other day with the cut-a-way hare and made it, he said that explains why the chunk is missing from the pole, he hung it with a disc, lol.

The tractor loaded on the trailer with bucket forward looks good!

The tractor loaded with bucket aft looks horrible! Seems like way too much weight is on the hitch.

When I bought my DK40 it came with a sun roof. Which was great. But a real problem when needing to go between pine trees 3m apart.

On completion of my new shed I removed the sunroof, because insufficient clearance with sunroof. Now the clearance is exactly 13mm, (1/2 inch) and as for the shreaded sunroof... I wear a sunhat instead (you know them cowboy hats).

Trouble with cowboy hats... insects like to take a ride in the shady area. Yesterday it was a persistent grasshopper.

I put two nice holes in the garage drywall with the 3 pt hitch of my brand new Kubota. Oops. I got them patched and painted before the wife ever even knew.
