    Most economical way to move tractor to dealer

    No, you can't. Do not do this. Across the yard, sure. Down a road, hell no.

    Most economical way to move tractor to dealer

    I dunno, on a busy road, a bunch of mad drivers trying to frantically get around you would not be enjoyable at all. And most of us CUT owners are going 10-14mph, max. Trailering is definitely a chore and a risk, but it's good to keep your skills flexed periodically, I feel.

    Surveyor rights to access private property in MO

    Eh quit your pointless bickering, this is actually a good discussion about property rights otherwise. Seems like this issue is just yet another good reason to have a gate on the driveway. Do the remote controlled, solar powered gate openers work reliably for years, or are they a pain?

    Surveyor rights to access private property in MO

    Just my guess but I would presume he meant they walked around and "past" his house to get where they were going, not just circling around for no reason. Ideally and presumably, JK knew his property lines well upon his own purchase. If a new team of professional surveyors wants to re-stake the...

    Yikes. That sure makes you think alright.

    Shooting back stop?

    Ok so we want a dirt backstop/berm of at least 8' tall, sure. But how wide does it need to be? And for light caliber target practice (say, 9mm and .22 only), what would the minimum reasonable "empty land" distance behind the backstop be? I'm just starting to plan mine. Only have like 75...

    Surveyor rights to access private property in MO

    Couldn't you reasonably have their vehicle towed away? If I show up to my home with a random locked vehicle there, and no one around to explain it, is the burden really on me to find out who it is and what right they have to be there? What if its a stolen vehicle that's been dumped? (that...

    Surveyor rights to access private property in MO

    Makes sense to me that surveyors would be exempt from petty allegations of trespassing just for trying to do their job. But it's pretty darn rude to have an attitude that they don't even need to contact property owners first to notify them of their activities. I guess one risk of that would be...

    Friend with GMC 5.3 problem.

    It's all relative, bud. There's plenty of rural areas in SE Michigan where you still have a drive a very long way to get some groceries or gas. For example, here's many square miles with only a few dozen homesteads.

    Thats fast but dang that bill hurts quite a bit to get out of nowhere. Almost feel like you could swap a brand new crate motor for just an extra grand or two.

    Guess I'm a Sawyer now? A 1991 Kasco "The Saw IIA" Sawmill is mine!

    How is your experience with stacking outdoors like that, and only covering with a piece of metal roofing? Does it dry out well enough even with rainstorms and snow keeping things moist?

    Friend with GMC 5.3 problem.

    I'm late to the party here, but yes the range chips in the OBD2 port work great. Kind pricey for just that one feature though. If I had such a truck, I would instead be buying an SCT BDX/X4 or diablo tuner and adding some horsepower and throttle response in addition to disabling the AFM/DFM...

    Received Kioti CK 4020 Today

    That's a pretty good time for a first attempt! After many on/off cycles with mine, I find it tends to get stuck in the subframe mounts now. And I have to chain/strap it to a tree to jerk ahead in low range until it pops free and comes free and starts sliding back out of the mounts. What sucks...

    Received Kioti CK 4020 Today

    I'm contemplating taking the manual thumb off my Kioti KB2475 backhoe, to be honest. It's barely functional. Ok, you can pinch a log or a rock by curling the bucket against it. But then what? Move it a couple feet? It's not like you have much reach with a little backhoe to really do...
