My CPA probably thinks I bought "too much tractor", but he's the only one. And what does he know??!

CPA's have there uses, sizing a tractor is usually not one of them.

I had my shades on so the wife can't tell it's me...

I bought more tractor than I probably needed for the long term.

I have one acre is all, and I was looking at Garden Tractors to do my mowing, lawn care, light plowing, and a small disc, and probably getting a Johnny bucket jr.

I was then going to rent a Skid steer to to the finish grading, dirt work, add a culvert for a second driveway, and put in fencing around the whole place. Also probably sink the poles for a pole barn, and covered areas for our goats.

I was watching the local classifieds for garden tractors, and talked to my dad one night, and he asked about just spending a little more on a tractor, using it for a year or two and then being able to sell it when done. I asked the wife, and she surprisingly gave me a green light!

About 2 weeks later I ran across a Kubota B7300 with a FEL and a rear blade. It has low hours and seemed to be pretty clean. Within a couple of hours it was mine, and now I am looking for a PHD and Disc for it.

I've already built the culvert, plowed our garden for this year with a middlebuster, and I'll be using a subsoiler through the whole place to help water absorb faster.

The wife STILL hasn't asked how I'm going to mow once we put in grass... and I'll deal with that question eventually.

I know I could have been happy with a garden tractor, but this is more fun and more versatile.
:laughing:

Actually, the B7300 is a good fit for your property...put a 42" or 48" Rear Finishing Mower behind it for cutting your lawn

I'm not doing much turfgrass, so the old push mower might be all I need. Once we have goats they should help take care of the rest of the property, and if not then a 48" rotary mower will probably find a loving home at my place!

P.S. I doubt I'll sell it in a couple of years... it's just proving so handy for so many strange things...
