    Kubota Electric Tractor Survey

    Oh yeah I wasn't saying you are wrong. Every situation and electric company is different. 400A service puts me in commercial territory when 2 200A meters does not. My point was the comment that the grid is going crash or a residential 200 amp service can't handle an electric...

    Kubota Electric Tractor Survey

    Yeah it's not a big deal at all to get 400amp service. The easiest way is to drop a second meter off the same transformer. As far us "upgrading the lines all the way to the substation", no, they don't. Transformers, yes they can no longer support four 200A homes. They have to watch the voltage...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    It's amazing how people trash their properties. At least keep it to one trash pile and keep the concrete and rebar out of the pond. Blue skies and 70 degrees. Cool evenings. Only thing is it's bone dry so I can't burn the mountain of deadwood I'm accumulating from my grapple. I'll take the good...

    Do I need more horse power?

    I wouldn't plan on a 6' with a 3901. I mow with a 5' heavy bush hog brand on my 45/38hp pto tractor and it slows itself down in 6' grass uphill sometimes. Also the big heavy 6' mowers are very long and heavy. Also are you dragging your mower on the front skids? I do that sometimes to get a...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Cleaning up more trash I found on our property. This in an old pond. It's mostly drained by still like quicksand. Almost fell in with the chain. Don't want to bring the tractor closer to get the rest. Easy work for the grapple .

    You really think you did this? Thanks! That wicked 60 house routing looks the same as the 55 I just got. My hoses are naked though. No extra protection.

    B2310, b2601 or L2501

    I love the 2501. It's a great tractor for the money.

    B2310, b2601 or L2501

    I just pulled a 10" stump out with my L2501. It barely got it out. It's just not heavy enough. I wouldn't buy an 2501 and think you're going to be pulling large stumps all day. Brakes on the same side as HST is not a problem. The tractor has power steering. I never use the brakes for turning...

    Best implement for grading— new house site?

    I have a box blade now and am considering a land plane. I put geogrid under all my roads so they don't sink, they just get a crown over time. I use 1.5" crusher run. Would you still recommend a rake over a land plane? Wondering if the rake would pick up the larger driveway rocks.

    EverythingMoneyAttachments. All the money up front?

    Has anyone purchased a wicked toothbar bucket? It's about double the cost of the toothbar by itself. My main mission is digging sod and moving dirt/gravel. I'm just wondering if it would be worth it to have the OEM bucket with a clean edge for back dragging? Or am I overcomplicating things and...

    Somehow got a LOADER!

    I'll be interested to see how the 6 way blade on the mini compares to Tnt on a tractor. I've never rented a mini with a 6 way, only 4.

    EverythingMoneyAttachments. All the money up front?

    That dolly looks great. Unfortunately I do not have the skill or experience when it comes to welding. I bet you could make a lot selling those things. I put a few hours on the grapple today, got it nice and scratched, along with the tractor. It is built like a tank.

    EverythingMoneyAttachments. All the money up front?

    Time to do some work. How do you guys store these things? I unloaded it and moved it up against a tree with my forks to get it on the tractor.

    EverythingMoneyAttachments. All the money up front?

    FedEx has mine now and it's delayed as well. It went from one side of DFW to the other in 5 days. I think you just got lucky. Ordered end of May and shipped last week.

    EverythingMoneyAttachments. All the money up front?

    If you watch a few of there youtube videos, they mention eventually having a stock of 6 or so of each popular implement. They have to catch up first though. I'm hoping to get the call for my grapple any day now. Ordered in May.

    Time for greasing everything

    I watched the Kubota field tech do a full initial buy checklist on my tractor. He used the same grease/gun for the tractor. I do the same.

    Fuel Capacity & Usage rate

    I use flo fast to fill mine. Pricey but I can remove fuel also and move it to another tractor, generator, etc.

    7000 lb trailers

    I know a guy that hauled a dozer behind a 3/4 ton. We're in the country, it'll be fine. Few months later he has a 1.5 commercial truck to tow it. He either got pulled over or destroyed the 3/4 ton. Our local metal yard has an 18 wheeler scale that people use to weigh trailers. The local...
