    What would you do?

    I think the real question is do you want a new tractor bad enough. I’m sure your current tractor will do everything on the new 5 acres that you could on your previous 4 acres. If financially you don’t have to use as trade in or sell and have room for two then it’s a no brainer. 2 is always...

    Pricing: 2022 B2601 with 55 hrs

    I’m with others in zero chance I’m paying 90% of new cost with this market. No shortage of equipment around me anymore. That’s just me though I’d just find a number you’re happy with and then list it. Even if it’s a grand less then your next closest unit if your happy with it who cares. If...

    New Tractor Advice for a newbie please

    Typical backhoe I don’t think anyone was being a backhoe nasayer as you called us. Realistically he said zero tasks requiring a backhoe and is predominately using it for grass and property maintenance. If money wasn’t an issue or he had no limit he probably wouldn’t have posted in the first...

    New Tractor Advice for a newbie please

    This is a great example of different strokes for different folks. And not a dig at you in the slightest Fried1765 Not everyone can have a L48 tlb that they don’t use very often just taking up storage or shop space. Most people are not gonna be digging that much or those depths all that often but...

    New Tractor Advice for a newbie please

    The bx is a very capable little machine but probably not ideal size for what you’ve described. Maybe you could include the prices of both for people to see the difference in your area. If your gonna even think about the used market private sales as mentioned above with your limited experience...

    Hydraulic oil temp

    I think by extending the hose you’re only gonna extend your run time by about 3 min. I’d be trying to find the culprit of the issue instead of a bypass to the problem.

    Boat owners- garage question

    No question if it were me I’d go with 14 foot doors. You’re talking about a new build. I’m surprised it’s that much more of a cost to go from 12-14’ doors. Obviously cost of doors and materials go up. What’s a ball park cost for your area between the two sizes?

    PLEASE HELP: M7060 Losing power ~15 min into bushogging.

    How many hours do you currently have on it? After the 15 min cutting when it starts to act up if you bring the rpms down or take the load off will it run and act fine or does it continue to run like poop?

    PLEASE HELP: M7060 Losing power ~15 min into bushogging.

    When the issue is happening check to see that the separator is still full of fuel and not half full with foam/bubbles on top.

    PLEASE HELP: M7060 Losing power ~15 min into bushogging.

    Did you check your fuel tank vent lines? Sounds like it’s hungry for fuel. When it’s happening try popping the fuel cap off. Be an easy and free test. Just my first thoughts. Odd it’s only when your bush hogging and going up hill. Is the backhoe run from the tractors pto? I kinda feel like this...

    Bucket hooks on the L2236 that came on my MX5400

    Good call on bolt on style if your not comfortable welding. I’ve seen so many buckets with janky looking welded hooks. Personally I’d weld the hooks or d-rings to a piece of plate steel cut to fit your bucket top then weld the backer plates to the bucket spreading the weight and tension out a...

    Used tractor price negotiation

    I think everybody reading this understand what your saying and how your feeling about ethics. This post was about dealer negotiations. Not the same as something being sold by a widow or other sod story you want to come up with. Dealerships are in the business to buy and sell tractors. I don’t...
