    Sickle bar or disc mower for L3901

    Check out the Ibex disc mowers. They are sized to work with the compact tractors and easier to operate than sickle bars, and less likely to get jammed up or damaged from hidden obstacles. I believe a TS53 would be the right size for that tractor.

    If it ain't broke, break it and buy another. If at first it wont move, turn, or do what it should, force it. Man, White men can't jump

    Credit Rating Nonsense

    I play the credit game now. Have a few cards with high K limits and use them then pay them off right away, and every so often, get a balance transfer offer for 0% for a year or 18 months and use it. There is a fee for doing so, but far less of a fee than any interest that would be paid on that...

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    It's not the CAD going up, its the USD going down. Pretty soon us US will be stockpiling CAD instead.

    Dumping landline phone service?

    THAT sounds like an issue with the 911 service or the cell tower providers service. It could be your area is not fully upgraded yet, either due to population or some other factor, but for the majority of the country, it is the standard now to accurately provide location services from cell phones.

    Anyone put a BX with loader in a Shelter Logic Tent

    BTDT still have the empty frame in the back yard. I was tempted to screw steel panels on the frame, just never got around to it. As others mentioned, if in snow country, don't waste your money or time, they don't last. With the price of steel today, carports are too expensive as well, but...

    Need help from truck guys

    What I think you need to do is run the truck over a scale when empty and see how much available payload it has. That can help determine if you go with drop sides or fold down sides. It also depends on what you plan to dump in the bed. If gravel or dirt, you don't want too much room because you...

    Chime in if you're waiting on a loader.

    Same boat, have an L4060HSTC-LE on order, tractor is sitting at the dealer ready to go, just as soon as the LA805 arrives. Since I am financing the whole package, I have to wait for the loader since a serial number is required. I also need the loader so having the tractor wont do me any good.

    Any former Hippies here?

    The only thing that comes to mind is what my dad used to say when something came on the news he didn't like. Dayum Hippies!

    Dumping landline phone service?

    My backhoe took care of our landline some 19 years ago. Have had Verizon for phone service much longer than that, but, our only source for Internet is through Rise Broadband and they suck. Multiple outages already this year, one where I had to hotspot for 3 days in order to work before they...

    Ford Lightning all Electric Truck

    The "Green" Approach, what they overlook in all scenarios, is where the raw material for the batteries comes from, as well as the environmental damage the mining processes cause. Much like the manufacture of wind towers and Solar panels, it is all carbon positive to manufacture. 1.5 tons of CO2...

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    There are tens of thousands of vehicles sitting in lots and yards waiting on chips still. If I had ordered a truck and it turned out to be one of those, I would not buy it. Sitting outside for a year, unmaintained, where rodents can get in, bugs can build nests, and things can rust, well, there...

    100% On TARGET! I mean, they fooled everyone into wearing masks that don't do a damned thing to stop a virus, and finally admitted it this week. They fooled everyone into thinking the Vaccine will stop the spread and now there is Omicron and EVERYONE will get it regardless if you got the shot...

    Ford Lightning all Electric Truck

    Here's the thing, by now there are tens of millions of Hybrids on the road, many 10 years old or more. IF battery replacement was such a big thing, there would be a lot more places that specialize in it, but there aren't. For a normal car you can go just about anywhere to get work done, don't...

    Ford Lightning all Electric Truck

    Those are the Tesla and hybrid batteries currently on the road, so the Lightning batteries will be very much the same. Again, this BS about having to replace batteries in a few years in nothing but BS. The battery pack BSM is highly advanced and maintains the cells to perfection to get the...

    Ford Lightning all Electric Truck

    Base model Lightning is pretty much the same price as the base model XL Powerboost, can't go wrong there, but if you like to have a nice vehicle like I do, F150 Platinum Lightning, $92,569. F150 Platinum 3.5 Powerboost, $68,740 ( $8,000 higher than what my 2018 stickered for, paid $51K for it)...
