I was laughing to myself this weekend while using my rotary cutter On my M5-111. I swear I think I use it in reverse more than I use it in forward. 😅 Anyone else do the same? Backing into rough spots. Big Mike

Sorry. I’m thinking about a 3 Pt hitch seed and fertilizer spreader that would hold several hundred pounds and operate from my pto. Big Mike

Now that I have this nice cab tractor, where can I get a spreader that I can operate from the cab? I guess it would have to be electrically operated or something??? Does anyone have a thought? Thanks, Big Mike

I had assumed that I would never find exactly what I wanted on the lot, but I did. Bought it at Beshears Tractor in Opelika, Alabama. A great dealer in my opinion. At thay time, it was the only M5-111 on their lot. There isn't a lot of row cropping around here, and the M5 line is typically...

I let it go some time back with a bunch of great implements. I knew those implements would not stand up to the higher horsepower of the M5-111. Now I'm starting over collecting implements!

It's too wet down here right now to play with the new tractor. Plus I need to get my concrete slab poured and the sides put on my shed. Nevertheless, here is the new iron:

True. Frankly, the 3930 was great for my purposes for a long time. Here we go! More pics once delivered.

We have 30 acres in Alabama. So, this is a bit more tractor than I really needed, but it is kind of a dream too. I'm retired now, and I may help some of my friends with their hay operations in the summers. We'll see. Thanks, Mike.

I finallty took the Kubota plunge today. Bought a newl 12 speed M5-111 with loader. Finally ready to get beyond Chicken Soup tractors and on to some decent power. Wish me luck! Previous "equipment"? A New Holland 3930. Big Mike
