True! When I drove the tractor through the woods last weekend I had both the bucket and deck off, might have to reroute that particular end of the trail loop, that wicked bar from everything attachements looks amazing! As I used the tractor to dig out a big ugly bush on the corner of our yard...

Unfortunately not, sometimes if I'm not making the swing right on my grizzly 700 atv I have to reverse and reswing. I completely missed the Rachet rake, just watched a video! I'm thinking chainsaw to move the 3.5 million down trees, rachet rake to clear vegetation, box grader to make nice and...

Hahaha, well, currently its under about 6" of water as the river floods over after heavy rains so burning isn't too much of a option here either hahaha! I do plan on getting a box blade so maybe I can just use that for a year or two until its nice enough to use the belly mower......

Yup, loader and 60" mower, dealer dropped it off last Saturday for a free "try this out and see if you like it, we'll do the paperwork whenever ..." flail mower is out of the budget, maybe I oughta try working it with the loader for a year or two, get the trails perfectly level with box blade...

Thinking even a flail might be tight, as well as way put of my budget.....it comes with a 60" belly mower, but not sure ground clearance will work in the woods, maybe if I clear it and work it over with the loader, but even then...hmmm....its pretty wet and all sorts of crazy plants due to it...

Working on buying my first tractor (B7500), and trying to figure out which implements to work into the deal. Definitely getting a box blade, the seam to be supper versatile, and have a 200' gravel drive way with parking pads enough for 8 cars, so seems like a good idea. Anywho, back woods is a...

I got lucky, 30x80ft pole barn built 20 yrs ago came with the house......so she'll be nice, dry, and clean! But even if it lasted to 3k hours, that's 2,250 more to go, if I average 2 hrs a week, it will last roughly 20-25 more years! I'll be 65 by then!

Might look into a reverse 3 point blower, and after talking to people, it's not like we get a ton of snow here and it's not lime a camp where you could have feet in the driveway next time up, but either way, I'm pretty sure our plow truck will be around another 5-10 years

Interesting! Thanks for the input! So not so much that all the compact tractors take the same blower, but rather, the mount for the 7500 still being available. Ok, that makes sense! I honestly kinda wonder how long this tractor will last as I could see putting maybe (after I get the implements...

Yeah, bout $250 for the set, but definitely worth it. As I was a GM master technician for 15 years at nearby dealerships, and now work on forklifts and industrial materials handling equipment....... I know about maintenance [emoji28]

Huh, was thinking this to be a "for now" tractor, then down the road get a new one, but after seeing 2k hrs as kinda usual, and this one having 750, perhaps she will last me a lot longer than I think! It's not the 3 point PTO attachments I'm wondering about, it's a front mount snow blower. Are...

Good god man! That would definitely take me a lot of years to get that kinda hours!

What's the quick attach do? Thought I already had it on this as yesterday I popped on and off the loader in about 3 minutes. (Drop the legs, pull two pins, unhook hoses, curl bucket in to lift mount, back out) sounds like you might be able to answer my question I originally asked, is the...
