    Tow Vehicle?? What do you tow your Kubota with??

    Eric, IC-Smoke and Bulldog, that's the kind of advice it take weeks to get on any other forum. I started with a simple introduction at a diesel forum and had several conflicting opinions and reviews that, taken together, gave me some direction, but left me still wondering if I should buy it or...

    How did this happen?

    Well, even though I would have loved to have bought a new tractor I ended up buying a classic used Kubota and then spending too much putting a FEL and used backhoe on it. Live and learn, but it's been worth it. I've used it to dig up stumps, and keep the deep snows clear this winter and it will...

    Tow Vehicle?? What do you tow your Kubota with??

    It has the 6.0L Turbo Diesel with 105888 miles and a clean maintenance record. I know this is THE motor that a lot of people say was so bad, but I've also read that there was really nothing wrong with the majority of them so I decided since it was selling for the price I needed to pay it was...

    Tractor and Equipment Speculation

    cmorningstar01 I've seen those as well, but these are not of that caliber. They are older (Classic) small diesel tractors in my State or a contiguous State (New Hampshire). There is nothing special about them like "Only 100 hours", or "Used only 1 summer". They are posted with average...

    Tractor and Equipment Speculation

    Over the last week I've seen several 15 to 22 HP diesel tractors listed on Craig's List in my general vicinity. From my own town to up to 125 miles away. They are all Japanese made tractors that look to be in pretty good shape and they ranged in price from $1100.00 to $2800.00 with the more...

    Tow Vehicle?? What do you tow your Kubota with??

    Got my new tow vehicle yesterday. Traded off the family truckster (mini van) that has served to tow everything but the tractor on my 16' dual axel trailer and my 5' x 8' utility for years. I hope this beauty will put in some hard work over the next 4 years while we're paying off the loan.

    FL 2170 Rotary Tiller??

    Where is a good resource for finding information about these attachments. There was one on the local Craig's List for $500.00 but I think I missed it. (Gone last time I looked) I wanted to expand on this a little. Does anyone have a listing of all former and current Kubota attachments? Is there...

    My next project, it's going to be biggy!!!!!!

    Rob, I have a project like that, except that it isn't rusted. At least it wasn't before sitting covered on the trailer all winter long. :(

    Welcome to OTT Spudgunner. I lived on Mt. Home AFB for 3 +/- years '87 - '90 and I wasn't too repulsed with the area. :D I only wish I'd made more friends in the local population. Maybe I could have brought home some real trophies instead of boots full of sand, tired muscles, and thoughts of...

    Buy loader or bigger tractor?

    Make sure you don't need any "extras" before you decided on getting a loader. Have you thought about finding a used loader that will fit your tractor? I suggest you don't pay more than 50% of new price unless it's like new. When I purchased my B 8200 I thought I'd just throw a used backhoe on...

    Anyone need these?

    The post is still on Craig's List, but that doesn't mean anything since the person obviously isn't a computer person. (Calls Only) If they were still around and you didn't have a use for them yet would you buy them at this price? Vic?? I may give it a try.

    Anyone need these?

    I'm not selling these myself so I didn't think the For Sale area was the best place to put this. I wanted everyone to have a look, and if you need help with these I can lend a hand. http://burlington.craigslist.org/grd/2173543532.html [Kubota B Series Fenders $75.00]

    Well, I have two leaking connectors on two of the hoses, but it still does a little work as needed.I've been so busy I haven't had time to play like I wanted to. For instance I have at least three appointments this week of my own, and the first is tomorrow at a doctor's office 30 miles away. I'm...

    Gazza welcome to OTT I think you'll find it a great place to meet people who understand you. Usually there's quite a few people around when the Northern Hemisphere is experiencing Winter. I guess we're a little too busy using them to write about them right now. :cool:

    Tractor value help.

    OK, I guess no one wants to comment on that one. How about this one? http://burlington.craigslist.org/grd/1938824510.html Is he in the right price range with the equipment listed?
