Tractor
Kubota M59, JD530, JD310SG. Restoring Yanmar YM165D
Ever wonder how many hours per year people put on their tractors?
Ours are used mostly for small chores, snow, & landscaping - we don't do anymore mowing or field work.
The newish Kubota's hour meter averages almost 100 hrs/year since 2008. The old one less than 50/year.
It sure seems like more than that.....

The '10 M6040 is just shy of 100/year, the '13 L3800 about 50, and the '24 Kioti CX2620 just turned to seven hours after nine months.

If I remember the numbers correctly, the '15 (?) BX25D averages 12.5 hrs per year. Much of them because I start it out of pity, plus it takes a small eternity to accomplish anything with it.

Between the three Kubotas I'm in the 100-120 total hours/year range. The zero turn gets the most, the utv and tractor are tied for last place.

Just under 600 hours since buying the L4240 six years ago. I kept the L3200 for the first year after buying it. So although the L4240 has been the primary tractor, the L3200 and the Ford 1210 also saw usage.

The largest use is mowing the yard. It also gets pressed into service for loader work and snow removal (hit or miss snow here).

MF1533 about 75-100/year last 4 years... MT125 - 25 last year.. Just picked up Kubota SVL65-2 ... already have 25 hours on it. Use is land maintenance, brush hogging, trail building, invasive species removal, stump removal - and any other chore we can apply these machines to help us do! 200 acres to keep in control!
