    Big Mistake with buying a 60" Mower for my LX2610, no mounts?

    Bite the bullet. An extra $1,200 isn't likely to bankrupt most working people. Don't be too hard on yourself, you will love mowing with that set up.

    Looking to trade . . . down

    I also dislike taking my MMM deck on and off. If you decide to go that route you might consider purchasing a Deck Dolly. The deck on my B2601 is fairly cumbersome and the deck dolly makes the maintenance and/or its storage safer and easier. Good luck.

    FEL Addition

    I am not sure about the hydraulic lines but buying the loader may also require your needing the "on board" tractor components. Steel mountings and so forth. You can look all needed parts up on the Messicks website . Good luck.

    L3560 pricing question

    Take your time while learning to use it. On hills make sure the 4wd is engaged especially when going downhill as it greatly increases your stopping power. I too am in SW Pa and have had several scary moments when I failed to take this precaution. Wear the seatbelt and keep the ROPs up as many...

    L3560 pricing question

    The cheap and easy Kubota financing , the presence of a warranty and often free delivery sells a lot of new tractors. I personally bought new when I could not find a fairly priced used unit a few years ago. What you are describing represents substantial savings. 400 hours is very little on a...

    Any opinions on: Powerhorse 3-Pt. Horizontal/Vertical Log Splitter

    Skip it. Buy yourself a Fiskers 8 pound splitting maul. It works great and will provide you with some exercise. If you are going to split a lot of wood over a lot of years consider the SuperSplitter log splitter. Expensive but amazing.

    What do you have for a stump grinder and would you buy it again?

    you can rent a decent unit from the Home Depot in my area. Unless you have acres of stumps it makes more sense to rent in my opinion.

    Wrist watch connoisseurs, DO NOT read this thread!

    30 years ago I quit wearing a watch as a means of simplifying my life and reducing stress. I have not regretted the decision for a minute. I recently decided not to shave every day despite my working in a fancy office setting. Simplification is the name of the game. So far so good.

    The customers have been either fully reimbursed or had their order filled. They did not knowingly take advantage of anybody. Shit happens. Thats business. I would not hesitate to order from them again.
