Who cares what color it is?

[slowrev]

I agree with Norm. Any color implement is ok as long as it is red /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I don't really care if they match...at least to a point. Like Henro, I actually like them to be different colors. That might be because having a Kubota, you can only take so much orange! My bush hog is red and recently I repainted it red. I could have gone to orange but didn't so I guess that proves out my answer. However, I will add that if it really clashed bad (who said something about a green implement on an orange tractor?) I might have to paint it. If so, I would use red.

I guess I'm one of the odd balls, but I actually prefer my implements being a different color than the tractor

A fella who wears that outfit in your avatar, with different color implement... I can't believe it /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

So you've seen those PHAT rims on my ride... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

My JD dealer had a heck of a time gettiing em' in.

So far I have yet to see a dealer that carries the same implement ( brand, specs, size, duty..etc ) in different color schemes. Just can't think of one....

Seem like many of the big online dealers offer those third party implements in JD green, Kubota orange, NH blue, and lots of makers Red, specifically so you can get the color you choose.

I don't care what color the implements are, I buy them to work not look pretty. The color help to identify the maker when you go to buy part. In twenty years when someone doesn't remember what brand it is, they are going to have fun if the manufacture plate is missing. A lot of times the parts guys will ask the color the help determine the origin.

I also could not care less about the color of an implement. I also do not give much thought to appearances either, see my thred on CHEAP Shade Cover /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif in build-it-yourself. I do have a thing about tractors being RED though, I just like that color on a tractor. (Although I must admit the purple LandTracs are very eyecatching!) I have two tractors & nine implements and no two are the same brand, but they all are field ready. Chet

My tractor is blue under the mud (I won't clean it until it stops raining). My rotary cutter is a Rhino, so I guess it was red, but the color was already pretty faded when I got it new, from sitting outside at the dealer - they buy them once a year. I can't remember what color my box blade is - yellow or orange, I think. I never paid much attention. When I bought my landscape rake at TSC on sale, I did make them take the second one in the row because the first one was pretty weathered - but first, I tried to get a reduced price on the weathered one. I painted my home-made root rake black to match my bucket, but I started using it before the paint hardened up, and I'm not sure what color it is now, mostly primer -- but that's OK, because most of the paint has been worn off my bucket, too, down to the primer, which is kinda reddish orange.

If all that sounds sort of apathtic, I'm like the other fellow above - everything is greased, tight and ready to operate. I do wash the bird poop off it when it occurs.

As for looking good, the way I usually look, and the clothes I wear when working, I'd look silly on a Martha Stewart coordinated tractor.

Yes, I also agree that color doesn't matter too much but how many would buy a orange Kubota implement to go on a JD? or say a green something to go on a NH? etc. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
