this is my first experience with a ROPS equipped tractor and well, i've hit a few branches while mowing and brush hogging...the branches (so far) come down and i've not yet broken my lights or bent the brackets - much to my surprise. It's a learning experience though!

got it stuck in the horse pasture...still there..maybe tomorrow night I can get it out..if not, then maybe sunday. WAY wet where I managed to get stuck, not gonna risk getting my truck stuck getting it out. Sposed to be dry for 4 or 5 days..gotta work anyway so I"m not missing much time on the...

I did the same..thought and drank long enough it melted! now..is the dirt I started moving yesterday dry enough to keep moving???

PA (and other states I assume) offer a 'clean and green' program - if you enroll you land yo only pay taxes on buildings - not the land. Could be woods, pasture, crops, etc. Your tractor can pull a single bottom plow, perhaps a double bottom. $300-500 new, maybe hit up some auctions. then you...

My ZT was $3300..about the cost of a MMM for many kubota's - and it's ready to go 24/7. My (used) kubota came with a MMM that runs off the PTO in the back and uses the 3pt to lift and lower.. for many jobs it needs to come off, or is a lot better if it's not on the tractor. Just something else...

4 foot as others have said. I got a land pride (they have diff 'grades'- i got the cheaper/lighter one). it has 4 rippers held in with clips..they sorta suck to use but do function. I has reversable/replaceble cutting edges. Another difference you'll find between cheaper blades and better...

started grading a 65x130 foot area for a horse arena with my box blade. Need to remove the grass and level (well, flatten and pitch) the area, then put in 36 posts.

I agree, you need details, specs, etc. Many factors are at play - cutting around things is of course one and where ZT wins hands down. Lots of hills or slopes maybe a tractor is better. Open fields/yards it comes down to how much cut width and speed have you got to work with? The bigger...

Towing isn't just abotu pulling power - my 2014 subary 4cyl has more HP than many early 80's trucks but can't pull crap by comparison. And it can pull 3X what my son's 200hp v6 taurus can pull. there is stopping, handling - regular flat sunny day roads as well as night in the rain on a hill...

yeah, silverado had camera and built in brake controller..the 'new' F350 had neither and i"m quite rusty on backing up to hitch up without the camera!

ALuminum body I assume? DOn't go doing fender benders..not cheap/easy to fix (from a bodyman friend o fmine). I know from a truck forum folks where happy with a GVWR of 7200 (vs silverado's 7000) but in PA that means DOULBE the price for a license plate (7k is the cutoff). Towing..read up on...

fed hay to the horses and moved a load of firewood on the carryall - AND DIDN"T GET STUCK IN THE MUD! LOL Just had 8" of snow wednesday, melted yesterday and today and it's a flippin mess out there. Desparately need to add weight to the front of my L175..a loader would be nice, but alas, not...

This is my plan...$60 and can use it on any/all PTO driven tools...

finally got 2 days of spring weather..took down a fence and pulled posts, dragged a large hickory tree trunk out of the woods. And tomorrow we're getting snow..up to 5" so maybe plowing snow.

help me understand what you're doing with the gravel driveway.. I've only ever seen it top dressed... So is the point here to 'till' the top 2" or so of driveway, sort of pullng the stones up to the top and 'shaking' the dirt down? I never had the equipment to do anything..now i do..just no...

you could try a 'hoop house' - put rebar in the ground like a stake, use PVC or conduit and slip over rebar on both sides of 'garage' to make a big hoop. You can cover with plastic for greenhouses, good for 4-6 years, or i've heard of people using old billboard material (some are paper, some...

they go down by gravity. very few tractors have 3pt's with power down.

Ohio if I recall until just a few years ago required shotgun only (well, no rifle) for deer. PA allows any caliber for deer (or any game for that matter). 7mm mag for squirrels? go for it! LOL PA was the last state to allow semi-auto's for hunting, and it's only small game and I think pests...

So you have no competitive shooting sports in canada? Long range rifle? Trap or Skeet? Rimfire Sporter or such? IDPA? PPC? 3GN? SASS/CAS? Turkey Shoots/meat shoots?

Well, while PA is an open carry state the Guvner had declared a state of emergency do to the opioid crisis and that makes it illegal to carry any weapon in public. Otherwise, 18 for a rifle, 21 for a handgun. No magazine limits. No ID or anything to buy ammo. CC permit is $15 for 4 years and...
