    LX2610?

    You’re essentially describing what I do with my LX2610 on 4-5 of my 95 acres. It’s a great machine for the homeowner with “real tractor” tasks but not necessarily utility size tractor space. One thing people often overlook in my opinion when sizing out a tractor for use around a home is fitting...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Isn’t funny how quickly you find out what’s too big for whatever machine you’ve got!? I’ve got a couple on the property I really wanted for corner stones of the new parking area that I just barely wouldn’t get off the ground.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Moving rocks I’ve found to be my top use for the grapple, certainly opens up a lot of jobs for these machines. Expanding my parking area wouldn’t have been possible with out building a retaining wall of sourced boulders & rocks.

    Is the equipment shortage ending? Probably not, but look at this JD dealer's lot.

    If there are tractors in any of the boxes off that Zim ship they’re on the bottom. The boxes that float dangerously like that are the ones with lighter than water goods. now the boxes that are fire and still onboard?…..those could have tractors.

    Are you ready for Winter?

    Edge tamers installed, I ended up deciding to drill the bucket as these knock off ones had a small indent for the bolts in the bottom. So I grabbed some spacers, the cordless drill, and here we are. Did a little trimming to get the fit just right.

    Factory Cab or Aftermarket. $ vs Utility

    I recently was in a similar buying decision and ended up with an LX2610 with a cab. During the weeks I’m away at work a worry that doesn’t cross my mind is my wife cursing me while moving snow in “the bigger tractor I had to have” but with out a cab. We’ve gotten a lot done in the last five...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Got road fabric down at the crack of dawn, then two loads gravel/stay mat. Had enough to do a layer on half the driveway as well. The budget is pretty well shot for the year, next year I’ll get another load to finish the rest of the driveway, and under the car port. 60 yards of bank run fill...

    thank you, and I’m sure the mrs would love to see another pallet arrive from the dealership!

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    $87 I believe, engine oil change, and both hydraulic filters. Dropped enough hydro doing the suction filter that I more or less changed half of that 😂

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    50 hour service today….at 52 hours 🤷🏼‍♂️. Then I grabbed some rocks that had been dug out some weeks back. Cleaned up a couple more trees yesterday that I had felled for esthetic purposes.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Fabric, some stone, and then gravel next week! Three cars work of parking now in what used to be a burn pile/gulley. headed into the woods Monday to raid another good pile of boulders to finish the border at the two ends. Eventually I’ll build a full stone wall around the finished area on three...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Got home from the boat at 0100, up early to grub shop for the house/long weekend. Then it was mowing grass and spreading another 30 yards of fill. Matting next and then stone/gravel.

    Doing the 50 hour service when I get home from sea this week, it’s been a godsend on my property.

    Buying a LX2610cab this week and any buying advice appreciated. Thanks

    Absolutely go with the R-14’s, after plenty of time running pay loaders and over equipment with R-4 type tires on slick surfaces in a believer in the 14’s now. if you want to do tire chains you’ll need spacers, and honestly I wouldn’t want to run the machine with out then anyway. absolutely...

    The truth about 3-point PTO rear push versus rear pull snow blowers?

    I’ll be interested to get that assessment as well. I’ve only got about a 250’ driveway and am going with just the bucket this year as it isn’t that wide. Strongly considering the pull behind Martin meteor though.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    From yesterday, I mowed with the zero turn and moved my new smoker to the shed from my car with the tractor. The isotune over ear headphones we got for my wife and I have been pretty excellent on the mower. Even inspired me to order the ear bud style for work. Back to the boat now for a week and...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Dropped two more trees as part of my effort to give some apple trees room to breath, and our Adirondack chairs a view of the mountain. The couple other ones I’ve dropped are in the brush and I’ll get them later. Only good place to drop both of these was onto a grassy open area. Came through with...
