    Not a suggestion - just a compliment

    Thanks gents. It took a bit of work but I think it helps make sure eyeballs get to see some of the posts that get made. We had a lot of really interesting "should I buy this" or "hey look at what I made" type of posts that got buried because they were misorted. On the other hand, I do not want...

    Kytim and stuart are right - there are a few options that go as far as galleries. The main gallery at the top menu bar is public and was designed/setup nearly 2-1/2 years ago when the site first started - might be time for an update (or not if people like it as-is). What do folks think? Would...

    Tapatalk - yes, this is something I think we an do. I know a lot of you do browse OTT on your phones and having something that formats the forums better is important to you. It is on the list so stay tuned on this front.

    What are zennoh and gtray market tractors???

    Hello there - Good place to start is to take a look at a few of our articles that touch on just that subject. Here is part 1 of a 5 part series: http://www.orangetractortalks.com/2009/02/zen-noh-and-kubota-part-1-a-partnership/

    Is OTT a close minded forum?

    I can provide some insight here. The thread starter in that case was actually a spammer or a bot. We have been fighting spam, spammers and bots pretty much since the site opened and much of it originates from overseas. Once we find a spammer/bot we delete all the threads they have started...

    D650 Gasket Set?

    The other day Vic ordered a rebuilt kit for a loader control valve. Cost him $100 and consisted - get this - of about 10 different types of rubber washers and rings that you could probably get at a hardware store for $0.10 a piece. Shocking to say the least!

    Cleaning and prep for winter.....WAXING!!!!

    You and Vic are very much alike in this regard - love to make your tractors all pretty like! They are damn near show tractors! :D I'm jealous... To truth is that regular (careful) washing and wax is really the best thing for any paint job, truck, car or tractor - especially true if you are in...

    Ford Tractors

    If you are comparing strictly on horsepower alone, 47 horsepower puts you into much newer Kubotas like the Grand L4740 or maybe an MX4740. For the Ford 830 at 40 horsepower, the L3600 with about 39 hp comes to mind. The truth is though, looking at a L4740 and a Ford 3000 - aside from the seat...

    question for Mr. K

    If you are speaking of Arrowwood - that's Alberta, specifically our very own Service Department Vic. He can get you any part that Kubota can! Find his username and then send him a personal message to get a quote and availability.

    question for Mr. K

    You are 100% correct. There is a definite pricing disparity between parts in Canada vs. US. I do have some insight as to why pricing from Kubota dealerships in Canada vs USA is different. Two things: 1) the Canadian dollar - as of late the dollar is near par but the pricing that Kubota Canada...
