Here's one I never heard of before. The dealer I just bought my new SxS from sells them. https://www.lovolagriculture.ca/en $48, 141 Canadian for a 50 horse with cab and loader. $38,000 for 40 horse. Ten year warranty. But when I walked over to have a look, I........well I didn't look too...

Well, I did it. Gunna try a CF Moto. While the wife and I really enjoy trail riding in the Kubota RTV-X1100C, there's a couple times a year I have friends from out of town come visit and they all have Polaris and Can Am 1000's and the RTV just isn't fast enough for long distance rides with those...

I see Kubota Canada removed all the prices again from their web site. Bet I know what that means. Another increase. I was almost ready to trade in my B2620 TLB for a new LX4020 cab, but then I just saw that an LX3520 HSDCC with only a loader is $59,603. So by the time I add backhoe, and remotes...

Got a smile this morning. Watching This Week In AgriBusiness on RFD-TV and there's my Ford and my puppies on Max's Tractor Shed! 853560

Got some more goodies in today for the 55 Allis Chalmers CA. Big thanks to Steve and JoAnna Barbato of B&B Custom Circuits in NJ for supplying me with a new heavy duty water pump, all new rubber and steel water lines and an electronic ignition conversion kit with hot coil. Even threw in a can of...

Took a pic of my newest pup, Allis Chompers standing on the Allis Chalmers. Then took the 67 Ford out for some fresh air today since it was nice and warm out today.

I just came across some you tube videos of the new restyled MT2 32 cab tractors. When are these supposed to be in dealer for sale? Look like they have some nice features, Yanmar power and the hydro seems to be a whole lot quieter than the Kubota LX series.

Went and got some filters and UDT at dealer yesterday. There was an LX2610 cab with nothing except a front mount snow blower on it. No other accessories or loader mount. $50,000 plus 13% tax. Unreal. Two years ago I could have got a loaded Grand L 3560 with loader and rear snow blower for that.

I haven't been following the new Kubota's lately since I fell in love with my old iron, but am wondering......on the new LX cab series can you still get two factory rear remotes and still be able to mount a backhoe, or do you lose a remote to have the power beyond? So for example, can you have...

What are good States to look for rust free stuff and what are the best classifieds to look up? I'm looking for an old Bronco II with the 2800 V6 or a 1995 to 2006 Ford Explorer Sport with the 4.0 V6. If there even is any left in mint shape?? Everything up here in Ontario is rotten. Got friends...

Well how's this for ironic? Two days ago I get one of those spam emails to join a class action suit against VW for failing plastic water pumps all the way back to 2009/10 to present that crack I think it said? Anyway, I ignored because: A. those class action suits are BS and the only person...

So I know by reading all the posts here in the past that the Boomer CVT's have been problematic. But what I'm wondering is, the 2012 Series II....are parts still available for them? Or are these generation CVT's obsolete now? Is this still the first gen or is this the Mexican made unit? I found...

Went an picked up another quick hitch today. This time for my 67 Ford 3000 diesel. I lucked out. I got one back in 2014 for my Kubota B2620. Went with the B.E. (Braber Equipment) because it looked identical to the Land Pride (which all my implements are except for the chipper/shredder) but it...

Was cold and rainy today, so left the antique tractors inside today and went for an RTV ride instead. And because it's an RTV, never come home empty.

Was looking at farm tractor toys in 1/64, 1/32, etc scale. Why is it that I can buy the real tractors for the same price as a 1/64th toy? LOL! I know a lot of the good old ERTL stuff is no longer in production, but you would think in this day and age of 3D printers and such that somebody would...

So for the antique tractors that sit outside during the show season, do any of these tire protectants help prevent the tires from cracking and getting weather checked? Or is it all in the tire compounds and construction? Just put the new rubber on the Allis and have new rubber on the Ford, just...

My 67 Ford 3000 has a block heater in it, but it is missing the cord. I don't know if I can find a cord that matches it, but if I want to check to see if the element is even any good, I just need to check resistance right?? Is there a value of Ohms I should be looking for? I looked at several...

Now that I finally got the new rims and tires on, took her out for a ride around the property on my bush roads. Then drove a mile down the road to my neighbors for a visit. The old girl is still a blast to drive. Brakes are strong too, will lock the rears at any speed.

Got some new rears tires mounted on my new rims for the 55 Allis CA. Now just have to get the time to put everything back together. They are Alliance, whom are Yokohama, who just bought Trelleborg/Mitas. I wanted to get Firestone but my tire guy dropped them because he said during covid they...

I see Deere just introduced a 75 horsepower 4R. They also switched to all LED headlights, worklights and beacon light. And electronic 3 point hitch control.

Just watching coverage from the Farm Progress Show since I decided on attending local tractor shows instead of going. Lots of new releases from the CNH twins. 75 horse electric tractors. (No, I don't want one but they look really nice. I love the work light setup on them.) They also...

So my Ford 3000 has a Simms inline injection pump. They have their own oil reservoir. Every time I replace the oil and remove the side cover that has the breather filter in it, I have to keep fiddling with it to get it to quit having a drip of oil always coming out of it. The rubber gasket isn't...

I contacted Anglo Agriparts in the UK to order more fuel filters for my Ford 3000 diesel and have them shipped to me. Thought it was cool to keep filters that say "made in England" on my Basildon, England build tractor. I did go with Motorcraft for the engine oil though.

Is it just that Kubota Canada never updates their web site or are these not available in Canada yet? I have yet to hear about or see an LX35 or 40 here yet.

For the record, I only buy new stuff when it comes to vehicles and new tractors, etc. Because I don't trust people. But unfortunately when you like 40 plus year old tractor collecting, you have no choice but to buy used. I bought a tractor off a facebook antique tractor site. Talked to the...

I want to ask some advice as maybe someone will have better ideas. I need to get these apart as I have brand new power adjust rims for it. I got everything lose, except the locks. I currently have them soaked in Shop Stufff (a canola based penetrating fluid) and Krown penetrating fluid. I don't...

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/cargo-ship-fire-netherlands-ev-electric-vehicle-battery-north-sea-freemantle-highway/ BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Just what I want parked in my garage. BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holidays are booked!

While watching videos on You Tube of vintage Ford thousand series tractors I discovered Farmtrac makes what looks like exact copies of the old Fords in India. Did they buy the tooling from Ford? Kinda wish I could get one here....a NEW Ford replica with no emission controls.

Thought I'd compile a list of antique tractor for sale add definitions. Lately I've been looking at antique tractors to buy and have been using Kijiji and Facebook Southern Ontario Antique Equipment Buy and Sell. So for all the other perspective buyers out here, here is a list to help you...

I have a bunch of perfect white ash logs I am bringing to the sawmill down the road. My neighbor has used it for interior walls in his cottage and it has beautiful grain. But I'm wondering, would it be any good for exterior siding if I get it cut into 1-1/4 inch thick boards? What would be the...

Maybe this is an American term? But I have never heard of it before and google doesn't even give a definition. I was watching two episodes of Classic Tractor Fever on RFD TV and two different people used the term "truck patch farming." What dose it mean?

Anyone going to the St. Joseph Island Tractor Trot parade and pancake breakfast on Saturday July first?

My favorite hobby, sitting on the front deck with my dog, a couple of the the tractors and a glass of Crown Royal. Finally got to mow some of my dead lawns. Got 2 days of rain finally.

Just wondering, I know the older Boomers used to be Shibaura built and the new ones are LS, but what engine manufacturers have been used in them? I read somewhere LS is making their own engines now? Is that what is in the new Boomers also? I miss the old Shibaura built New Hollands.

So got my new to me 3000 put away, waiting until all the manuals I ordered for it come in. The seller/restorer I bought it from claims it's all new oils and filters, but I still want to go through it myself before it gets any real running time. So, I'm thinking the manuals will be based off...

Just looking for some opinions. What is the best protectant product to put on the vinyl seat on my Ford 3000 to protect it from the sun and fading before I take it out to the shows this summer where it will be sitting outside all day.

Made the 15 hour round trip yesterday and got my new to me Ford 3000 home! Runs awesome. No smoke or noises. Has couple marks but it was a working tractor. The seller showed me videos of it pulling 8 or 10 foot discs on his farm field before he rebuilt it. Just need to get manuals and a...

Hello. So, I don't know a lot about the Ford tractors. I have an Allis and a couple Massey's. But I found this 1940 9N for sale. He wants $6500 CANADIAN. Is it worth it? I just use them for shows and parades. No real work. But anything to look out for? I see it has an alternator and 12 volt...

I know the Farmall C CVT seems to be discontinued now, but since there were a few owners of these and their blue NH cousins on this forum I'm curious.......have any of them been reliable? I've read so many bad reviews on them. Just wondering if they were ALL bad or if any are still in service...

What is the sales tax in Illinois? I was just looking at all the fees to register for the Mecum Gone Farming auction starting tomorrow.

Couldn't wait for spring. Still can't get off road so went for a road ride yesterday since roads are now bare. In retrospect should have thought to close my helmet vents and wear warmer gloves, LOL

So curious what people know about this. What other fees are involved other than the exchange rate on the dollar? We'll use the new L2502 for an example. In the USA it's MSRP is $15, 700. Convert that to Canadian dollars and it's $21,348. Sow how does Kubota Canada come up with $27,751??? These...

Just looked. Kubota has the new L2502 up on the Canadian site. $27,751 before you even add a loader. Bahahaha The new LX's are as much as you could have bought a Grand L for two years ago.

Anyone see the newly posted pricing on the Kubota Canada web site? May as well buy John Deere now. My RTV-X1100C is now $32,000 before any options (or the same I paid for mine last year fully loaded with a Boss vee plow) My bare B2620 before loader or options was 16 grand. Then it went to 18...

Saw this yesterday. Case IH is sending a bunch of Quad Tracks to Antarctica. Over a million dollars each they say. Notice they don't have SCR or DPF's. :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

Just wanted to share this. I thought it was pretty cool...

Question for those that have owned or operated both the Kubota B2620/B01 series and the JD2R's. I'm curious how the 3 range Kubota and Deere 2 range hydro's compare and how they overlap. For example, my bushroads have some pretty good hills. With my B2620 I can carry full loads of gravel in...

Coobie has a nice setup with his HeliMod extensions, but for those that already have the Kubota rear view mirrors on their RTV-X1100C, here is a cheap solution to make them better. My son hit one of our buildings getting too close while plowing and shattered the glass in one of the plastic...

So came up with an idea. I do all kinds of atv/utv rides with my friends. But they all have turbo 1000's and we end up doing lots of 50 to 60 MPH riding. Well, I'm ready to do something different. A SLOW RIDE, LOL I'm thinking of trying to get any fellow RTV riders (or any other atv's/utv's...

Been a pretty easy winter here so far. Every time we get snow and minus 40, a couple days later it rains and melts. So I decided to plow some of my bush road to take the dog for runs.

Just wondering a couple things about the new 1835M as I don't have any MF dealers close by. anyone have any pics or info on the front mount snow blowers and what they have for the hitch part of it? Just wondering if they are simpler and more reasonably priced than the Kubota setup? And for the...

You would have thought this would be a no-brainer for a company that makes farm equipment to support the corn growers that buy their equipment...

Got to play with this today! I thought it was Kubota powered like the Sherp brand, but it has a Cat (which may likely still be a Kubota painted yellow like their mini-ex's and CTL's.

So I have two Sportsman's left. One is a 570 that I have HATED from day one. The other is my 04-1/2 500 H.O. which I loved and has been absolutely bulletproof. I recently took it on a week long 500 mile ride and it was the only machine out of all of us (brand new ones included) that did not...

Finally got my Boss plow installed. Didn't have to adjust the front springs to a harder position, doesn't droop much when raised. I'm impressed with how high it lifts. Just have to remove it later to see if I am still going to be able to put my receiver hitch mounted winch back on without...

Well, I still want to add a full size classic Massey to my collection, but I just scored two 1971 MF 7's. The one with no hubcaps needs motor work and the one with hubcaps needs a seat. Both have mower decks. I'm just going to clean them up. I don't want to touch the paint as they are all...

I never even thought of this until now. Does Kubota use backhoe/Deere pattern? Because I only operate Cat pattern, so I'm probably going to be all screwed up? LOL

I know it's outdated, but didn't want to get rid of my B2620. So now that I have the 3 point arms all off to get it set up for the new backhoe I just bought for it I was wondering......am I remembering correctly that there was another B series that had extendable lower arms for the 3 point...

I emailed Land Pride today and as usual, great customer service and an answer right away. I have an RB1660 3pt rear angle blade with the hydraulic rotation. As I have mentioned before I don't use it very much because I can do almost anything with my box blade when I'm building and maintaining...

The new LX series brochure is now up. https://www.kubotausa.com/docs/default-source/brochure-sheets/20_04_08_lx_series_ktc.pdf?sfvrsn=35d4f886_4

Anyone have a 60 inch mid mount mower deck for a B2601 they can take a few measurments off of? My dealer, nor Kubota Canada can answer my question. I want to know if the RCK60-29 from my 2013 B2620 will fit on a B2601. I know the deck model number and part number are different, and that they...

Did you all see these? My local Cat dealer has one on display but I couldn't get pics as I am working nights and only see it in the dark. Cat has a new mulching package for the D3. The mulcher can be angled and tilted same as the blade. Cat | D3K2 Mulcher Dozer | Bulldozer | Crawler Dozer |...

Been a crappy winter this year. More freezing rain than snow. Big change from out annual 13.5 feet of snowfall. Got the plow truck but I rarely use it. I prefer the tractor. Better visibility, more maneuverable and easier on fuel. But once in a while I will fire up the truck just to run it. It...

Was looking at all the new Kubota offerings that are coming and was quite surprised to see these. Looks like Kubota is offering trailers now too! Kubota | K-Haul Trailers

The new Canadian built M8 is up on the web site now. Not sure if this has been posted here yet. This is the result of the partnership with Versatile tractors built in Manitoba. Kubota gains a bigger tractor and Versatile will gain the Kubota KVT variable transmission for their tractors...

Anybody know anything about the 3625 models from 2006/2007? Were they a good tractor? Any known issues?

Lately I have been seeing all kinds of adds in magazines and the farming channels on TV and Sirius Radio for these tractors like Zetor and some other Russian brand advertising they are tier 3 with no emissions BS and no electronics. How are they allowed to sell NEW tractors with no emissions...

I heard rumors and it finally did happen! Canadian built Versatile tractor is going to be building orange versions of large agricultural tractors. Page not found – RealAgriculture This is one of the new models. Guess we will now have a Cummin's powered Kubota.

I had this posted on a Kubota forum, but now that we have a project thread here I'll post it up here too so people can see what can be done with a small tractor. I'll start with this......some of the one kilometre of bush road I made on my property for harvesting my firewood from up in the back...

Been wanting an antique tractor for a long time and finally got one. 1955 Allis Chalmers CA. Motor was just rebuilt, new drive clutch, converted to 12 volt. I'm going to fully restore it now and get everything back to original.

There has been talk here about the difference between the US SUDT and the Canadian Premium UDT from Kubota. Well I have done two oil and filter changes on my B2620 with the Premium UDT, and at 520 hours I did the third changeout and tried the SUDT I bought in Michigan just to see if there is...

If I get a chance this weekend I am going to go visit my dealer and try and find out more about these. Kubota | RTV-XG

Bought my first Sportsman 500 H.O. back in 2004. It's the 04.5 half year model with the updates. One of the best purchases I ever made. It plowed my yard for 8 years plus all my trail riding. Only ever changed the battery and tires. NOTHING else. Has been bulletproof. Only today just noticed it...

Kubota unveiling its first-ever diesel engine above 1HP, ready for Stage V regulations

Need a quick Kioti education. My friend in another town is going to buy a bigger tractor and he has a Kioti dealer. He was looking at a brand new 35h.p. cab tractor.....but looking on the Kioti site it says the DK was discontinued and now the NX45 is the smallest cab tractor? Is this right? He...

Anyone else notice Kubota Canada has a new web site. They are finally posting downloadable owners manuals too, like JD has been doing!!!!! Kubota | Home

Went to look at a friends B2620 this weekend. He bought it used and the hydro pedals do not neutral (center.) Everything moves freely. So I removed that HST damper, the thing that looks like a shock with the rubber boot over it. (part # 6C350-4335-0 Is this part supposed to center? When I push...

API CK-4 oils will replace current CJ-4 engine oils and will be backwards compatible with most applications in which CJ-4 is used today. They all offer improved shear stability, oxidation resistance and aeration control, the API claims. API FA-4 oils will provide similar improvements, but...

Curious about your opinions. I'm a diesel guy, but recently bought a VW Tiguan SUV. It has the 2.0 liter turbo engine. It says it requires premium gas. I rarely drive it as I am always using the trucks, and when I do, I'm not throttling on it. Nor does it get really hot here in the summers...

They are going to have a functional ram-air hood, with an air/water separator. Will be a nice feature with all the under hood heat these pickups make when towing heavy.

What do you think? I'm trying to set my snow blower up to work with my quick hitch and have the same problem as with the Wallenstien chipper/shredder. I can get the bottom pins to sit in tight but no matter what combinations I use the top pin does not sit down tight in the top hook. There is a...

Here's a good one. A friend's new F-350 diesel started acting up. Limped it to dealer. Was throwing all kinds of codes and was stuck in fifth gear. Diagnosis: 6 modules in the transmission, all bad. Here's the best part. Ford has none in the parts supply. Told him it will be about a month. In...

Anyone else hear the announcement......Kubota says they are going to enter the large AG tractor market. They are going to start developing tractors larger than the new M7 over the next 2 to 4 years. Can't wait to see what they come out with.

Let this guy pass me today as he was quite a bit lighter than my load and was impressed to see he had an M6 and an M5 on. First ones I have seen in my area. Hard to get a good pic driving, but they sure looked nice!

Any opinions on these yet? http://www.jcbna.com/products/Machines/Compact-Track-Loaders/325T/Specifications.aspx

Went to a big Kubota show at my dealer today. Took 71 pictures. Found out about a lot of cool new stuff coming like the K-Connect (a new version of the Auto-Hitch) that they had there, larger versions of the R-series loaders and excavators coming, the purchase of Land Pride by Kubota, etc...

Only ran a few branches through it so far, but wow! Anyone with a BXM32 run into this though: My neighbor has a new BX2370 and we tried with and without the quick hitch on, but his won't lower this BXM32 right to the ground. Only the back corner touches. So I made feet for it and bolted them...

The local hydraulic shop/snow plow installer now has a big sign out front......."We will not install plows on GMC/Chev 1500 pickups. HD models only." Apparently the front frame horns keep breaking off them?

I ordered a new B2601. They are sweet!! The new front end loaders are cool too.

Anyone have a JS48 push mower? I bought a new one this summer and I have noticed every time I take the fuel cap off to fill, it is full of dirt. The gasket looks ok and there are no burrs on the threaded plastic neck of the tank. I was going to try a double gasket but I notice it has a vent hole...

Got my new Braber Equipment/Agri-Ease quick hitch the other day. Went this brand because my dealer sells quite a few and they are exactly half the price of the big name brand ones. It also has the adjustable top link. Thing that confuses me is their description and that of my Land Pride...

Got this today in the mail: Product Improvement Campaign: Kubota B2789 Snowblower We are sending you this letter because our records show that you purchased a B2789 Snowblower and Kubota is voluntarily conducting a safety campaign that applies to your unit. What is the...

Been a while since I looked at the IH web site and just noticed they now have a new Farmall C series that is final tier 4 and has a Shibaura engine once again. From 33 h.p. and up. When did IH go back to Shibaura for their compacts? Site also still shows the LS built B Series. Does New Holland...

Neighbour just got a new Wallenstein BXM 32 chipper shredder for us to use. I went to set it up and put it on his new BX2370 and find that the 3 point hitch won't lower enough for it to sit on the ground once I took it off the shipping pallet? Anyone else encounter this? Wondering if I need to...

From the Kubota Global site. Four new engines certified by the U.S. EPA and California that have a DOC only and no DPF muffler. Lets hope it expands across the full range that all the compact tractors use. Others like Agco and some Bobcat models are using that system successfully already...

Need some oppinions. My dealer sells Wallenstein chippers. What would be the best one for running with both a B2620 and BX2370? I'm thinking no bigger than the BX/BXM 32. I imagine the 42's would be overkill right? We are cleaning up where we harvest our firewood and making walking/atv trails...

Are the mid-mount mower decks on these drive-over like my B20 series tractor? Also how is the cab noise? Is there more hydro whine than my B2620 when working hard?

A JS48 push mower actually:D Kubota doesn't market push mowers anymore and I had to get something to do all the spots I can't get into with the B2620. I did some research and half the posts I read online said they were the greates thing ever and the other half said they are junk. But I got it at...

Saw this in Canadian Manufacturing: MINNEAPOLIS, MNæ‚*ndustrial and construction equipment maker John Deere has signed a multi-year deal with a video and computer games company to develop and publish video games, and other branded digital content. Soul and Vibe Interactive Inc. will develop...

Couple pics of the first phase of repairing my bushroad washouts. Very impressed with the little B. Tires aren't loaded and it pulls a loaded 60" box blade full of loamy sand up the hill no problem at 2000 RPM. I thought for sure I was going to have to bring the bulldozer home, didn't think the...

ROAD TEST: King of the hills

Saw this in the news. Hahaha....now you know your new car has been thoroughly tested. OAKVILLE, Ont.湧ine people face racing charges after police say a pack of vehicles being taken to a Ford Motor Co. plant were clocked doing twice the speed limit in Oakville, Ont. Halton regional police say...

Dealer is getting me some clamp on forks. I think they are Agri-Ease 1000 pound.....for my B2620. But I also want to put a Piranha tooth bar on. Anybody know if I will have to remove the tooth bar to use the forks??

Dealer never said anything about it, but I just read the B2620's have a 14.5A dynamo. Is it necessary to upgrade to the alternator to run two extra front work lights and one rear work light. Not sure what kind of lights they are installing. Will be doing lots of nightime snowblowing. Will the...

I'm kinda confused here. I looked at a Cub Cadet SC2400 a couple years back, then forgot all about them, as my local dealer closed up. Now I just looked here and see they are using the Yanmar name only now? Do Cub dealers still sell them, or did they make changes to the dealer network? Are they...

Thought I read somewhere, somebody posted that the mid mount mower for the CT122 does not have greaseable spindles. Can anyone confirm if this is true or not. I find it hard to believe they would make the blade spindles non greasable? I've seen pics of the deck and it looks like it has access...

Just curious......the CK20/Bobcat CT122's are listed at 16.5 pto h.p. This is less than most scuts at 19.5. Is it just the way Kioti/Bobcat rate them? Will a CK20/CT122 run a wood chipper? What size chipper is anyone running?

Just wondering what is the difference between the Yanmar 3TNV84T in the 3520 and the 3TNV84HT in the 3720? Are they the same, just different power ratings or what does the H denote? Also how is the fuel consumption on these?

Anybody seen the new Fecons? I got an email saying they will be at Conexpo.....the new FTX 600 and the RTC 22.

Wasn't sure what forum to put this in? Does anyone know anything about these processors. I was looking into getting a small one like the Blockbuster Model 14-12. They use an 18H 64cm harvestor bar and chain to do the cutting. I'm wondering how long they last? I know it will depend on type and...

Was looking at a Farm Fleet catalog and took notice of the Befco flail mowers and tillers. Anyone have any Befco products? Are they good quality? They seem to have a lot of good features.

Hello all. I just saw a post on a JD forum documenting with pics the procedure (on a 2305) on how to go from front mounted implements like a blade or blower, back to fel use. Can anyone tell me what is involved on the Massey GC. How big a deal to switch from front attachment to fel? Is...

Can anyone tell me the parking length I would need for a 2305/2320 with a fel and rear mount blower? Thanks.

:D Actually I was moving some dirt with my plow and had a brain storm. I had a couple big piles of leaves on the lawn that I raked up last weekend, but didn't get them picked up due to rain. Well I was worried it would hurt the grass where the piles were, so I plowed them to the bushline until I...

Anyone change the outer rear cv boots on a 2004.5 Polaris Sportsman 500 H.O.? I usually take it to the dealer but too many instances of forgotten stuff and mistakes lately, so I bought the boot kits and was going to do it this weekend. But I read on some atv forums that the rear axle has to be...

Another question:confused: What do think.....the dedicated mulching deck or side discharge? (For a GC 2600). I was thinking mulcher since I don't want to invest in a humboldt right away (need too much other stuff) but the Massey mulch deck cannot discharge and I'm told I can't convert the side...

This one is just for my curiosity. While looking on Massey's web site I notice the 500, 3600 and 5400 series all have a model that overlaps with the same pto horsepower. Obviously the 5400 is a bigger stronger chassis, but where do the 500 and 3600 fit in? They seem close in specs. Is the 3600 a...

I get so much good info and advice on this site, thought I'd come here for some printer advice. What is the cheapest as far as ink usage? I had an HP 1210 all in one. I thought it was hard on ink at the time (not compared to my new one though) and it had really good print quality. When it wore...

Hello All. I just got back from a trip and managed to check in with some dealers along the way. I kinda changed my mind, started out wanting a tlb, but now think the bh is an expensive piece that will be sitting 90% of the time. But I do need a tiller, so by deleting the bh it will pay for the...

I'm no farmer and am curious. We have two new threads today about preparing the field planting hay, now I'm wondering......for a very small operation what is the smallest implements for cutting and bailing hay on the market. I'd like to see what is available and how small a tractor you could get...

I sent for some info a while back on Land Pride implements for subcompacts. I just got some literature from Great Plains. Did they change their name or is this just another division?

What's everyone think of the new 1600 series? Are they replacing all the 1500's?

A friend of mine has a farm and was on his way home one night a short while back. Told me he was going past his neighbours farm and something caught his eye. Looked and there was a Chevy Suburban out in the field. Looked again and realized it was pulling the disc, plowing the field. Who needs a...

Hello everyone, I've got a question. I have a shallow well with a sand point. The water is very good, have it tested regularly and it is very clean and bacteria free. It has good taste, no odour and no problems with washing dishes, no stains in sinks or toilets. The problem I have is calcium...

This past winter I got CNH to send me some info on the small Boomers. I got 2008 brochures with the T1010, T1030 as the subcompacts (20 and 26 h.p.) and the T1110 as the small 28 h.p. compact. Now I go on the web site and see the subcompact is now the 26 h.p. 1025 and the small compact is the...

Anyone have any feedback on the Cub Cadet SC2400's? Searched the Cub forum but not much there. Got a flyer in the mail, found out I had a local dealer and gave him a call. He was very unimpressed as all these mailings were sent out in our area and he hasn't gotten any info on them from his cub...

Hello All. I just inherited a 1998 (or 1999) Craftsman model944.608450 Special Edition 19.5 h.p./ 6 speed. It has a 42" EZ3 convertible mower deck on it. It was my fathers before he passed away. He never had the mower deck on it, left it set up for the snowblower. I finally found the manuals for...

Hello, I have a 1995 Ford Explorer. I will always keep it as it has 200,000 miles on it and has been absolutely bulletproof. And it's still in very good shape. Anyway had it's first issue. In order: the abs light came on, the cruise quit, the interior lights would stay on a very long time after...

My neighbour has a Poulan Black Hawk Bh 2660 42c.c., 18" chain saw. It starts ok, will idle, then when you start cutting it will die. I haven't tried it yet, but anything I should look at? He said the air filter is clean, new spark plug and the oil gas mixture is 40:1 the same as he said he's...

Hello, where I live it is all sandy soil (more sand than loam), and my lawn is overrun with both red and black ants. I have 2 acres of lawn and a small budget, so is there a cost effective way to deal with this? I looked at store bought pesticides, but it would cost a fortune for an area that...

Can't decide, need opinions. I have a 300 foot driveway and a turn around for transports. Lots of room to blow. I like the idea of a front blower (nice to sit and look forward), but do you think it is nice to have the FEL on? Or use a rear blade (just to clean alongside house where you can't...

Hello, I have a 1995 Snow Blower with a 10 h.p. Tecumseh HMSK100 engine in it. I rarely use it, it's still like new, but I just lent it out to a relative and it's not running very smooth. Never did, from day one. It always starts, and runs ok at full throttle, but wants to stall when idled down...

Don't know if you read this yet, but it was finally released that the new upcoming 15 litre International Truck engine is indeed a C15 Cat. So now they have an alliance of International, MAN and Cat. It will be an advanced egr engine (no scr) but they will not say weather it will use Acert...

I was just looking at my brochures and noticed you can't get a hydro trans on the 1533 if it has a cab. Anyone know why they don't offer hydros on cab models? Just curious.:confused:

Just wondering, I see a couple "backyard" dealers popping up in my area. Who makes Foton tractors. Are they any good? Don't seem to be priced too cheap in this area for an "off brand".

I got this tractor from a friend. Can anyone help me identify it. I have no manual and can't find any model number on it. As you can see it has been painted, not sure if it was a joke when I was going to pick it up, but it made me laugh anyway when i saw the flames and OCC emblem. At first he...

Hello everyone. Just registered but have been looking at the site for two days now. Found it while searching for Massey Ferguson info. There's lots of good info here. I am interested in the future purchase of a small tractor for my yard work. I have a John Deere and Kubota dealer within an hour...
