in a little 2 acre undeveloped lot in the middle of town early on this Saturday morning. I finish first and the other tractor is still going. I'm hooking up and I look up and there's a big balloon with about 10 people in it. I wave, they wave back. pretty cool. I finish hooking up and look up...

Not it's always something. I do this a lot, it's the same thing for all of them (although I did notice that Woods has a different setup that looks WAY easier) Jack the cutter up, turn the blades around so the hole matches on top. Get out the great big 1&13/16th socket, get out the impact...

From JJ Keller: You can’t be serious! My pickup truck might be a CMV? - IOTW2315 - J. J. Keller & Associates, Inc. You can't be serious! My pickup truck might be a CMV? Did you know that your company pickup truck just might be defined as a commercial motor vehicle (CMV) according to the...

Want to put a side dump body on my tandem dump truck. (class B) I know of Smith Co in Iowa. I've seen other bodies, but don't know who makes them. google is exceptionally worthless on this (more than usual) ideas? someone must know.

possible, not possible? rhino (spit, puke) 6' cutter has destroyed where the blades attach to the stump jumper and I utterly refuse to put another dime into the POJ. But I need another cutter that's bigger than my (still working fine, never had one issue, 4 years older, $700) 5' Bush Hog I've...

Well, I just found out a joyous law here in Colorado, but I'm sure there are similar laws in all the states (esp in tax happy northeast and Kali). It's called the special mobile vehicle decal/plate, SMM plate If you want to use your self-propelled equipment commercially you have to get this...

the new TC45 (that replaced the lemon TC45) broke at 81 hours. Saw some markings on the inside of the rear tire. Umm, honey, what have you been doing? (it's her tractor most of the time and we've been working HARD this week) Uhhh, nothing. :rolleyes: Look closer, Oh, I see what's wrong, the...

Seriously It's never come up before. Our soils here are are very akaline and I've never heard of someone having to spread lime. (although I hear you guys/gals talk about it back east). So, went up to bid this lady in the mountains (about 8500 feet) and she says "nothing grows" I say "let's do...

It's 2007, almost 2008 Cars have had sealed bearings for almost 30 years It's time to get a clue There's only one part on a trailer that needs regular maintenance. It shouldn't take hours to do it. Minimum all trailer should come from the factory with bearing buddy style things, but really it's...

i.e. HOSED AGAIN. I'm so mad I could spit. I took the TC45 back in to have it's radio and rear remote put on. They were part of the original deal although with the switching of lemon tractor for this one, they ran otu of time, and it wasn't a big deal I didn't need them anyway. Figured I had...

Actually, not me, the wife. Doing this nasty bushhogging job today (luckily bid enough for it). Along ditches, 5 to 10' high, nobody knows what's under there, etc Took both tractors and put the wife to work on one side and I went to work on another. AFter about 2 hours, the cell rings, it's...

That's not a trick of the camera, that's a 8' tall TN75 going thru those weeds. Those weren't the tallest weeds, but the easiest place to take the picture I just did one yesterday just like it, the wife from a hill could only see the blue top of it. You just go real slow. Kinda underbid it a bit...

Went out to bid this job, 32 acres, old dairy farm being renovated. crap everywhere and 3 to 5' weeds/grass. Some of it had been mowed (3 acres or so?) but the guy apparantly got frustrated hitting all the rocks and stuff and quit. That's the business. I did bid it high (because there was...

So, I stupidly left the gas cap off my TN75 and mowed for 4 hours. (this is really bad, DON'T DO THIS). It began to miss and died (fuel starvation). Kicking myself, replaced the fuel filter (which was clean BTW) and still nothing. Loaded it, drove it to the dealer. Dealer got to it in about 2...

junk I've had it with this junk. I've had a cheapie bushhog squeler (5') for years and nothing has ever happened to it. I've owned a 6' Rhino (2000 dollars) and a 8' Rhino (5000 dollars) since May and as of today, i've now busted ALL 3 WHEELS on those (the 8' has two). (it bends the fork, how...
