    Diesel mushrooms

    YIKES! I'm sure glad I have good fuel in my area. I have never had any kind of fuel issue and I keep 400 gallons here in my tank all the time.

    What a dilima??? My sexy little tractor isn't what it seems...

    I'm not sure how real this is, but back when I bought all the paper parts and service manuals from my Kubota dealer they were $80 each. Now my dealer is trying to tell me they are $800 Canadian? He said Kubota does not want to do paper manuals at all any more.

    Interested in purchasing a Kubota RTV-X 1140 UTV

    I never mentioned, I have never had weight in the bed and I've never had traction issues with the worksite tires. As far as installing, as long as you are comfortable opening up the dash and running wiring, that's the hardest part. And drilling two holes in your front bumper to mount the plug...

    Interested in purchasing a Kubota RTV-X 1140 UTV

    I have the X cab model and I had a six and a half foot Boss vee plow on it. The Boss was cheaper than the Kubota vee and they work very good. I believe the weight was 400 pound for whole setup. Very easy to take on and off. And I didn't even have to crank up the preload on my springs. It carried...

    I don't know what's up with Kubota now, but I just bought a brand new $20,000 (canadian) K-Connect and snow blower for my RTV and Kubota Canada corporate is telling me they no longer have print owners manuals??? Not even service....the owners manuals. I showed them what I was SUPPOSED to get...

    Kubota tractor corp prices.

    Here I thought this thread was going to be about how ridiculous their prices have gotten since covid. May as well paint them green now, LOL

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    In an ideal world it would be like the old days and get to minus 40 before it snows, then it's no problem, LOL But now I finally understand what all the southerners were always complaining about because now I'm even dealing with wet snow and thaw/rain cycles. Here it is January 8th and I still...

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    As RCW said, skid shoes can and will sink in soft gravel also. When I have that happen, I just put the blower down then lift it slightly instead of leaving in float. That sometimes helps too.

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    Yes, has a frame that goes underneath with a driveshaft. Takes power off engine crankshaft into a drop box that has the electronic clutch in it. And instead of using the RTV's hydraulics, it has an electric pump and oil reservoir in that front power pack, pretty much same as the Boss plow.

    Interesting diesel additive comparison

    Like I say could have been coincidence, but all I know is I always put a little Howes in my slip tank now when I go get fuel, so that means it also goes in my furnace oil tank since I haul my own fuel and I've never had a fuel issue.

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    Nice! I wanted one of those but the Grand L prices have gotten absolutely insane here in Ontario Canada. So I set up my RTV instead.

    MX series any good?

    Anyone using an MX6000 in cold winter climates? How have their emissions systems been performing? Any regen issues in the cold?

    Snowblower and gravel roads

    I was in same boat. Always used my B2620 with a rear 3 point blower. Then, just as you, wanted a warmer option. So bought an RTV-X1100C with a Boss vee plow. It was great, and fast when it was cold and you had a good base. But now that we have been getting lots of thaws and freezing rain...

    Interesting diesel additive comparison

    I am lucky, we have really good fuel here in northern Ontario, no need for additives. But I do run Howes mainly just for some extra lubrication. Only reason I'm sold on Howes is I used to run one ton diesel pickups hauling new travel trailers all over the country and one time tow injectors in my...

    What's your fuel consumption like?

    Well I have no scientific measure but I have a B2620 and to mow my 3 lawns I would have to refuel my gas lawn tractor after using it's 4 gallons to finish, but my B2620 can mow it 13 times on 5 gallons of fuel. And I can snow blow my 300 foot, 12 foot wide driveway numerous times before I need...

    Kubota UTV Winch

    Oh okay. I never really pay attention to who manufactures the parts.
