    A general thank you

    Had an "Ah ha" moment recently. I'm like many others here probably; I've been a member for years and usually only post when I have a problem. And when I have a problem, the solution has always been prompt, detailed and guilt free even though I'm a "newbie". For one, I appreciate that and I...

    Selling BX turfs but where and how much?

    My BX2680 came with turfs. After a year and 90 hours they weren't doing what I needed so I bought R4s and that solved my issues. I hung on to the turfs through the winter in case the R4s couldn't deal with snow but they did just fine so the turfs now need to go, they're still in great shape...

    Float mode... to use or not?

    I searched but didn't find what I was looking for. Here's the scenario: I have about 6 acres to bush hog and it's really tall stuff in a field I haven't mowed before (unkempt hay field). Normally, I would keep the loader on (BX2680) with the bucket low but have so far only done that with...

    Driveways for bikes

    Loosely tractor related driveway maintenance question for the masses; Mods please move this if it's better in a different area. I've read many posts about maintaining gravel driveways, good advice for all but I'm dealing with something I've yet to read about so I'm looking for opinions...
