After four surgeries in the past three years, I can’t lift or run a shovel anymore. Decided to get a little help!

I posted a story about some good cops, helping a depressed man in the Detroit area, and it got deleted. How come?

Last year I bought a new Deere X739 with the Factory Dealer installed Cab. While it was an improvement compared to no cab it was still a bit chilly on really days and the CO levels were lethal due to air infiltration . The engine cooling air intake point is inside the cab under the dash area...

Hi all, I have a 2016 "G" series Toolcat 5600 with 100 hours on it. When I press the accelerator pedal slowly the unit will "chatter" as it accelerates, the opposite is true when I lift off the pedal and the unit coasts to a stop. It will not do it when cold but after 2-3 miles of road/field use...

John Deere 232R & 238R Tractor Announcement Q4 216 by Washington Tractor - YouTube Pretty cool stuff!

I am looking at buying a new excavator, I have been working with a local dealer, that is trying hard, but is not able to answer a simple question as to the over the side lift capacity. The Kubota website has a very clear chart showing the rated capacity at length of boom extension.I tried...

If you could find the one car you wish you never sold would you buy it back? I've been looking for this car for a long time, it's not exactly the one that got away but exact except for the engine/tranny combo. Should be in my garage in 2-3 weeks. 1965 Plymouth Belvedere II, 383 4 barrel, with...

I need to ship a car from Pennsylvania to Michigan, I want to use an auto transport service with closed trailers for protection. Any suggestions on where to start?

After 3 repair tries I'm ready to scrap our 6 year old Fisher/Paykel washer/dryer set and buy something else. I've researched all the new electronic Government mandated low water crap :confused2:out there and decided I don't want a washer that is smarter then me! It looks like Speed Queen still...

I'm looking at a new Toolcat and was wondering how much of a discount off list price is typical with an average amount of "dickering"?

I'm thinking of replacing my Deere 3720 Cab tractor and Polaris Ranger with a 5600 Toolcat but I have a few concerns. 1. Lack of a differential lock - what is the real life traction? I saw a video on Youtube showing a series D Toolcat getting stuck going up a grade I wouldn't consider "steep"...

Had a supplier ship a sample to me on Friday from Orlando Florida, I received here in Michigan on Monday!! A 4 oz. padded envelope delivered for $1.92, don't get much better then that.

Do they work "as advertised on TV":D? The commercials show them cleaning mold and dirt from tile grout and it looks too good to be true.:rolleyes: Does anyone own one and how well do they work?

Really stepping up in the technology wars now; 3 days ago I got the Motorola Droid and yesterday a new Imac. I went with a 27" monitor with a Quad-core processor. The monitor contains everything, there is no "box" under the desk box or wires - everything communicates wireless. I unpacked it...

New 54" blower mounted on my 1 year old X749. It appears to be very similar to the 47" with a few changes; the sheet metal sides are heavier and it now has a plastic impeller.

I've been looking at the Springfield Armory XDM in either the .40 S&W or 9mm with a 4.5" barrel as a CCW. Any opinions or experiences with this brand?

I went to their web site and the rates were quite good compared to my local agent, any thoughts or experiences good or bad?

I'll try to keep this short.:rolleyes: In November I bought an item through Amazon.com and paid through Paypal with my credit card. When my December statement showed up on Jan. 7 ( 1 week later then normal) I noticed I got charged twice for the item . Since I didn't have contact info for...

I want to buy a gun safe to store my tractor manuals:D so after much searching I have narrowed it done to a Liberty Safe "Lincoln" Model. Liberty Safe - Lincoln It seems to offer what I want at a reasonable price and the local dealer will deliver it and move it (775 pounds) to my basement...

Another member came up with a way to get more rotation out of the snowblower chute; it was posted in this thread. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/john-deere-owning-operating/9600-improved-angle-control-mod-jd.html?highlight=snow+blower+47%22+rotation I performed the same mod with a slight...

Need opinions and personal experience/recommendations The two biggies are Quicken and MS Money - what do you think?

I need to keep my steep drive clear to the concrete if possible. I know the rears on the 2520 are wider then the blower width so the tires will overlap some and probably pack down the snow for the next pass. What is your real life experience?

I have a "condition" with my power steering that I was told is normal to all 2520's; when I turn the wheel the steering "freezes" or "pulses" back against my efforts. It is worse when cold, and does not seem to be rpm dependent. It was so bad at first that if I turned the wheel fast enough it...

I'm down to the "last minute, second guessing mode":D! I'm Looking at the X749 with a 62X deck and material collection system, either the 3 bag or the MC519 cart, any last minute words of caution or encouragement??

When I had my house built a couple of years ago the landscaper I hired really screwed up part of the lawn. On the north side of the house ( where all the shade is) he brought in blue clay topsoil before laying the sod, the problem with this is that it is either too wet or too dry depending on...

My partner has a son that is a pro rider for one of the SkiDoo factory teams, he sent this picture of him doing a "whip" while testing at the Factory last week. Unfortunately it was taken with a cell phone with a delay so they missed the part where he was backwards and upside down! If you look...

Has anyone had their 3720 Cab on a scale to find out the actual weight?

In round figures what should I expect to pay for a B3030 Cab Model with the 63" front mount snowblower ( with hyd. chute rotation)?

I see on the website Deere has two new models - 729 and 749 both are AWS and AWD! There isn't a lot of info out yet but it looks like they have assist motors in the front hubs for full time AWD, has anyone seen or demo'd these yet?

I replaced my 03' 500 with a new 700XP, I talked the dealer into swapping out the stock 12" steel wheels and tires for the 14" "Bruiser" wheels and tires.

Did you ever go out and start your tractor just to hear the diesel clatter and get a whiff of diesel fumes? A simple thing like this can bring a smile to my face.:)

I posted some pictures of my JD Tractor in the JD discussion group and had so many comments on my trailer I decided I should post some photos in the trailer section. It is a Featherlite model 3110 car hauler- 8' 6" wide by 17' 6" long. The GVW is 7,000 lbs and the empty weight is 1,400 lbs.

My 2305 was feeling lonely so I got a 2520 to keep her company.:D

When I first heard of the problems with the poisoned pet food I turned to my wife and said "I'll bet they switched to a Chinese supplier", well sure enough it was announced the poisoned wheat came from China. I'm really confused now, I thought wheat ( and all the other grains) was one of the...

Some picts of the 3720 blowing snow.

I had a chance to try out the 3720 this weekend and all I can say is "what a monster". 8" of heavy wet snow and I could push the tractor so hard that the blower could not keep up with the ground speed but the rev's only dropped 2-300 prm, I was going so fast I wasn't blowing snow, I was plowing...

I got a 2305 last year and while I think it is a nice tractor and very capable I miss a few of the features that the 2320/2520 have like a true cat 1 3PH and independent brakes. So now I want to upgrade so I can take advantage of the JD green fleet program on the 3720 I have on order. When...

I can't find the width across the rear tires for the 2320 and 2520. Any help out there?

After readinig the good comments about the cab model I decided to go with the cab, so today I ordered a 3720/deluxe cab, 300cx loader, 59" front mount snow blower. My dealer gave me 15% off list price so that means after his labor to assemble everything he made $2,000. I know I could have beat...

In one of the recent threads someone was saying that the new "A" style front hitch is not as convenient as the old system. Any opinion from those that have seen or used this yet?

Is anyone that bought a cab model unhappy with the decision? I'm having trouble deciding if the cab will seem too "constrictive" when doing work in the summer or will I quickly forget about it when it is zero degrees out and I'm blowing snow into a head wind?

Has anyone looked into putting larger tires on a 2305? I believe larger tires would actually make the tractor more stable when using the FEL because the load in the bucket could be carried below the axle centerline instead of equal or above as the stock tires require.

I'm looking for a light duty pallet fork attachment for my 2305 but JD does not offer one. Any help in the aftermarket?

Is the skid steer option for the 300CX loader just an adapter that fits on the regular JD quick change or is it different castings or weldments completely? Either way does is add or subtract weight from the normal setup?

I used my 2305 with the FEL this weekend for the first time and noticed I could not lift and curl the bucket at the same time, is this normal?

It's been 5 years since the Big "E" left us, love him or hate him the races just haven't had the level of excitement they did when he was racing.

Saw some info yesterday at my local JD Dealer: 3120 - 30 HP 3320 - 33 HP 3520 - 37 HP 3720 - 44 HP EHydro only I was told they are still Yanmar motors

Any help in finding an adapter to use standard skid steer attachments with the JD quick attach system?

eHydro Owner\'s Survey From what I understand all the eHydro's have a delay in the movement of the tractor when the pedal is pressed, it appears to be the longest when changing directions. So who has noticed it and how bad (time in seconds) is your tractor?

I owned a 955 for many years and recently took delivery of a 4410 eHydro, while I like the overall tractor some things are a real pain and was wondering if other people noticed the same things. Observations: 1. Slow pedal response -there is a delay in the response to pedal movment, my 955 would...
