hour meter only has 3 digits, so it would have rolled over anyway. Tach cables are prone to break on these too.

Oh yeah, the camo truck ad was hilarious.

Were all these in the Columbia area, or you getting bored and looking for entertainment further out?
All on my local CL. Fortunately not at the same time, it took a bit of collecting. :p If CL all looked like this I would have to put myself out of my misery.

A lesson on how to write an ad to sell your tractor.

https://dallas.craigslist.org/sdf/grd/5777047313.html



Ok, folks, Here's your chance to own a real legendary work horse- a Kubota L175 diesel compact tractor, but don't let the size fool you- it has a heart as big a West Texas cattle ranch, and it's sexy as George Strait. This macho machine is about a 1974-1976 model (I think) and has roughly 20 horsepower, and baby, when I say "horsepower" I mean STUD HOSS power! It has 2870 youthful hours on the meter, and if you know anything about these old Kubotas, that's barely broken in.

Men, here's what's going to happen when you bring bring this farm boy home, peel your shirt off and start mowing the ol' north forty: your wife is going to look out the kitchen window and see you, and start thinking of how she can "thank you" later. She'll immediately make you a big glass of sweet tea which she will deliver (in a Mason jar) while wearing cut offs and a halter top, and then wash your 1965 Ford flatbed truck. Afterwards, she will head straight back in to make you a plate of fried chicken, butter beans, turnip greens, mashed taters, salad, biscuits and finish it off with a bowl of NANNER PUDDIN'!! Think of what this tractor is going to save you on restaurants! Obviously, you CANNOT allow neighbor women or your sister-in-law to see you on this sexy sled- if you do, no telling how many homes you'll wreck and hearts you'll break.

This beast has a four speed transmission with high and low range, which gives you 8 forward gears & 2 reverse gears. Breaker, breaker, good buddy- not just anyone can handle that many gear-jammin' options! It has a high and low speed PTO, and a 540 rpm PTO shaft. It has a powerful 3-point lift on the back that will raise that big brush hawg mower up in the blink of an eye!

Speaking of the brush hawg mower- its basically BRAND NEW. It is a LAND PRIDE model RCR1248 mower, 4 foot of cutting width, and it's complete with an American Flag decal; terrorists and America-hating NFL players can't be hanging around a rig like this! It is so nearly new, the orange paint on the underside of the deck has not been worn off.

The tires are good. One rear tire is BRAND NEW. The other rear tire looks old, but has good tread. The front tires are in good shape, but look like they have been on there a while. None of the four tires leak. It also has a full tank of fuel, which will basically last FOREVER. This is very fuel efficient rural Rambo of a tractor, and with the money it saves you, you'll be able to afford a NEW BOAT!!

There are a few thing you need to know before you rush to my farm with stacks of hundred-dollar bills. This Kubota, while awesome, has a few flaws.
1.The battery is graveyard dead, and even if it wasn't, it soon would be, because there is a short somewhere that drains the battery. I jumpstart it every time I use it.
2.One brake is really weak, and the other one isn't much better.
3.The kill switch is broken. You have to open the hood to kill it.
4.The engine leaks some oil, but not a ton of it.
5.The 3 point lift on the rear (hydraulics that lift the mower) leaks off while you're mowing, so every minute or so you have to bump the handle up.

Optional equipment includes an authentic floral print seat cushion that already has that "weathered" look. It is basically the equivalent of a pair of ripped up jeans. There is also a really big bumper, in case you go heads-up with a Russian tank. Behind that big push guard up front is a real pair of FAKE headlights. That's right, folks, somewhere in Japan back in the 1970's, a little guy that designed tractors thought a pair of fake headlights would be way cool, and his boss agreed! I picture him looking a little like Mr. Miyagi. "Ahhh, Daniel-san, fake headlights look great!"

Haha me too! Bought a 1951 Ford 8 N with a rear blade that was to big for it for $2,500. Put about a g note into it over a 2 year time frame to kept it running smooth. Sold it for $2,000 for the tractor and $500 for the blade.

I had more frustration and fun than a guy should be allowed to have! Some dude bought a tractor that ran like a top that he is going to broker to some fellow that will refurbish this gem and sell it for about $6,000. I was happy to see that tractor go there.

It was my first real tractor and I drug that blade every direction over my 2.5 acres and cut Swales and levelled ground all over my neighborhood.

My wife even thought my tractor was sexy when I drove by the front window with my drawers at my ankles standing on the seat! Lol

I have so much fun?
