    Who's running a flail mower on a BX?

    Yes, I have, not a lot. But can I mention that a flail mower can manicure field grass and groom trails and open field brush, guess what saying is any place I can back into, I can cut., even though forward motion is the best. With the hammer cutters I've felt breaks materiel down better and had...

    A Present for my BX, a Finish mower

    Just off loaded the Land pride FDR1572 FM into the BX's service container and it's constructed like a tank. I can understand a little better what TheoldHokie was referring to about the BX lifting the 72 inch especially with the like floating 3-point system it uses. I look forward to...

    Possibly, New to me RTV X1120

    The only thing the dealer can hope for is, do the service and sales, part sales. The good deal goes to the person who got a high trade in value. There are some deals at auctions.

After I bowed out and outbid, three bidders continued to go at it in the last 5 minutes. After my preview, I did find out a...

    Possibly, New to me RTV X1120

    Ah, being aware of final cost is what one needs to be aware of when using auction houses. I've done the math and will determine my final bid. I've seen in the past a good deal turn into questionable. Calm mines
