    Rtv x 1100c amazing machine.

    The reason people buy many multiples of tractors over any other type of machine is nothing will do as many different things with one machine as a tractor. A big Case backhoe will out perform my L3901 in digging a thousand feet of ditch four feet deep, but it won't bush hog my land. And I don't...

    Rtv x 1100c amazing machine.

    we see RTV 1100's for sale used here a lot, usually about $9,000-$12,000. We didn't need a cab, and the 4010 Mule was fine for a workhorse type vehicle. At my age the plush suspension of a sport utility UTV is nice to have. We are retired and not doing heavy farming work

    Rtv x 1100c amazing machine.

    We love our Can Am Defender. We have had a variety of the UTV's- Ranger, Rhino, 2 different Mules (4010 and 610). The Can Am is very smooth riding, unlike the Mule, and will climb anything, even rocky hills you could not walk up. We bought the Ranger used and could not get it to run reliably...

    QA lever lock

    we replaces the thin wall tube with a solid steel bar. The dealer fixed it free the first time when it just twisted. Then it broke at the weld so we just hired a welder to replace it- $150

    Tufftop Canopy

    Canopy is one of the best things we ever got. We went with the one the dealers sell- it does not fold but is plenty durable

    High speed run, pretty scary

    That all sounds perfectly normal, you just need to get used to the machine and how the HST works. There are no "gears to pop out of", it's a form of CVT. Bet you were in 2WD on that hill? Keep it in 4WD on hills so you get better downhill engine braking. 2WD on a downhill can be scary if the...

    Going crazy over emissions!!

    ^THIS^; we have had zero issues with the L3901 after upgrading from an L2501, the increase in power, particularly at the PTO is dramatic. The L2501 would bog down bush hogging, particularly when it was hot. Have had 2 DPF regens, at 35 hours and 65 hours. At about 80 hours now. We have a lot of...

    I will replace it at 3,000 hours, about 20 years from now.

    Going crazy over emissions!!

    The DPF is not an issue. More power is always better, particularly at the PTO, and the cost difference is just a sunk cost, you get it back on a resale.

    L2501 or bigger?

    with the minimal difference in price go for an L3301 or L3901/ The pollution control is a nothingburger, and there is a reason Kuboa has to offer incentives on the 2501.

    KUBOTA SSQA alignment bar replaced

    Thanks to all for the advice on the earlier post. We had it replaced with a solid metal bar (not a pipe). Guy came here and did it in the shed with a truck mounted rig.

    Where is Your Tractor Kept?

    we used to keep it in the shop but it got way too crowded in there. We don't have a theft issue at either property- no way to get in there without being seen by a LOT of eyes. Both areas are dead end roads, so if you are there, you are lost or don't belong.

    Where is Your Tractor Kept?

    we keep it in a home made run in shed. Build identical ones at the mountain house and at the farm- they are exactly the same design. This is the one in the GA mountains- it is about 400 feet away from the house. At the AL farm, it is a good bit farther away from the tiny house, down by the lower...

    50hr service and manual

    we replaced all 3 of the filters and fluids at 50 hours. Large channel lock pliers are your best tool to remove the tight tranny filters
