Your chart shows the opposite. Most of the states are pushing back on limiting gas use. Only our far-left states try to limit human progress. If they truly wanted to go green, they would fast track the use of nuclear reactors thus building up enough clean power to actually meet future...

I was concerned about hauling, too. Then I realized that the tractor I needed was going to be too heavy to pull without buying an expensive new truck. 2 years later, I haven't come close to needing to put my tractor on a trailer. If I get in a pinch, my neighbor has a big diesel flatbed work...

We planned ahead for a generator, so it's a 250 gallon tank.

I prefer to compare apples to apples. The taxes and fees and regulatory costs from the government should be required to be spelled out.

I have that on my T574, too. I use it more than I expected. Not much use while mowing, but it was an upgrade they threw in at no additional charge.

Nothing wrong with the Yanmar engines that isn't wrong with most of them in the Tier 4 market. They are so tied with electronics related to the emissions that more problems can arise. The TYM engine is old-school and while it has a DPF, it will not go into limp mode if you have a regen issue...

One advantage to a gas or LP cook top is being able to use the flame. I find it works well with charring peppers. You cannot do that with induction. Plus with induction, you need compatible pots that work with them. As for LP tanks, owning allows you to negotiate for price. Very handy when...

9/10 that's not really the cost of NG, it's the cost of being where you are.

Warranty is through RK. Same with any companies who sell rebadged versions of another mfg. They get parts directly from TYM, too. I lean toward wanting stuff from the mfg direct. Of course we don't have RK out here. I also prefer the TYM engine over the Yanmar.

Update: My mattress arrived: Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Firm. ~$1100. It has to air out a bit as the new foam smells a bit. Frames haven't arrived but great CS so far from the seller (synergy health out of Greensboro, NC). Guy has called and emailed to make sure I know where it is. Should...

The RK is also a TYM with RK badges.

We have 2 gas pipelines that cross the property. We were told they would not run a line...so we have propane. NG is cheaper and more dependable for the rare weather issues. I used to worry about gas for my stove. I wouldn't be without one today. It's very humid here, so whole house...

Now there's a spammer. Vaping isn't good for you either. Get help and quit.

CID makes great grapple that are light and strong. They mainly focus on ones for construction use. Mine has been a beast. Iirc, homestead only had one style...I may be confusing them with another brand, though.

I don't drink much, but I also think the recent villification of alcohol is a false and deliberate effort to make it seem worse than pot. People have been drinking alcohol for most of human history. Alcohol doesn't explain the increase in cancers and other issues. Moderation in all things.
