    Filthy tractors versus clean ones

    I pressure wash them when I have to work on them. I wash out the radiator and oil cooler fairly frequently due to the fact it gets very hot in South Texas. Other than that maybe every 2 or 3 years.

    Kubota L2550 Backhoe Attachment

    I had a woods 3pt backhoe on my L3010 HST. It worked fine, but the thought of me cracking my rear-end was to much. I sold the 3PT and bought a L48TLB.

    L48, Hydraulic brush cutter
