    All the snow is cleaned up now and look what I see

    Living here in Newfoundland one gets used to seeing moose and moose accidents. I seldom drive on the open highway at night. This time of the year you'll get the moose coming out to the side of the road licking the road salt. I've seen 1200 lbs moose on top of cars and even inside of them. You...

    Kubota's for Work or Play?

    I was so anxious to get out in the tractor this morning the wife said I must be two fellers because one feller couldn't be that stupid to go out in that weather :( When I got home I came in the house and considering I have a bad flue my eyes were watering and the wife asked me what was wrong...

    First snow with my tractor

    I'm sure you'll get the chance to get him back. It might mean having to get up earlier than him some time but you'll get him back. :D

    Had a blast Tuesday & Wednesday!!!

    I don't know about me but your getting the green light for sure :) I'm a member of many, many forums including motorcycle, welding, fabricating, design just to mention a few and there's one thing that I've learned out of it all and that is the tractor sites especially this one has the most...

    Kubota's for Work or Play?

    That little guy is to lazy to get out of his own way. He just stays there fishing all day long. I haven't had the heart to tell him all the fish are gone :D Tractor wasn't to hot looking this morning. It was out in a wild blizzard. It was hot in the cab though, Thank God :) Thanks again. Paul

    Opening a Grand 40 Cab's Roof

    All true. When you remove all the head liner bolts you'll be able to lift the top of the cab off as well but don['t do that because you might break the seal under it. After all the head liner bolts are out it's an easy install. I had some pics of the roof off of mine but I can't find them. If I...

    Kubota's for Work or Play?

    Holy smoke she's a beauty! So I use mine only for snow and you use yours for everything but snow :D Very nice machine. Tractors are like motorcycles to me. I've never seen a bike or a tractor I haven't liked. I've also noticed that in the almost 40 YouTube vides I have up the tractor vids always...

    Kubota's for Work or Play?

    :D I guess there's some truth to it. The problem is that all my grounds are done and have been for years now. If I need to lift anything I have my old fork lift so the tractor gets the summers off. As you can see by the attached photo the tractor is more practical to own than a truck. :eek...

    Kubota's for Work or Play?

    Sorry guys for getting in on this late but I'm dieing with the flue. The wife said if I don't stop complaining she's going to take me to the vet and get me put down :eek: My tractor is just for work. all it needs to do is snow clearing and nothing else. The work it's doing now is what my GMC...

    All the snow is cleaned up now and look what I see

    Oh man that's so nice to see. Love that stuff. I was never a hunter but always enjoyed seeing the wildlife around. we have a Hugh moose problem here in Newfoundland and it's so bad the island is called the most dangerous place on earth to drive but there still nice to see. Great photo's. Thanks...

    FEL Forks on the L3540

    I just love it when things are done right as in this case. Thomas you got a very fine machine there sir and with all the goodies to boot. I remember last year one of the guys at a local farm was working on a machine and put the forks of the machine he was using right through the aluminum...

    Had a blast Tuesday & Wednesday!!!

    After I made my post yesterday I kind of felt bad about posting it but then I started to say to myself that ptwyz is a great guy for doing what he did and I'm sure each and everyone of us either did or would do the same and all I wanted to do was remind him that there are always folks out there...

    Had a blast Tuesday & Wednesday!!!

    Your right. It's great to do nice things for people as ptwyz has and maybe folks are different where you guys live. I remember a few years ago a local ended up in court because a good Samaritan offered to give another disabled driver a boost to get them going which he did. Turns out something...

    Had a blast Tuesday & Wednesday!!!

    Sure is great to hear your enjoying yourself. I've been there and done that same thing and I've learned that you shouldn't start anything that you don't intend to continue. Most of those folks are going to expect the same treatment after each snow storm now that you started plowing them out and...

    Park brake warning light

    Thanks Scott for your kind words. The way I've installed the things I've done on this tractor I've tried to make it appear as if it came with the tractor. The locals who come by don't even notice this stuff. It's only eagle eyed true tractor guys like yourself that see whats been done. ;) Thanks...

    L4240 and snowplowing

    After reading your reply I don't think you should even consider a tractor for that type of work. I used to operate heavy equipment in a Northern environment in a town called Labrador City. Snow clearing was some of the tasks we were performing. We would plow snow on parking lots that held over...

    Park brake warning light

    Thanks Thomas. Someone was by the shop today and couldn't beleave how clean the tractor is. Even the mat inside don't have any dirt on it. It's as clean as the day it was built and folks do like the extras I've added. As for another tractor. IF I sell it I may get another Grand L Cab with...

    Reverse Alarm installation (HST)

    Congrats Thomas on the installation. I'm sure happy with mine and the most important part is that it makes tractoring safer. OH. Your very welcome. The pleasure was all mine.
