    Carry All Build ideas for B8200

    Well this is a little wonky how I share them (i am struggling to get these old pics off my PC) , but here are a few pics. I ‘borrowed’ 😉 the ideas from this video(I think it was this one).. I did add holsters 😂 and trailer hitch and castors though. The awesome dog is all mine, but I can’t...

    I think the tag on their uniform changed a while back, and now readily recognized as a ‘hipster’ , if one is being polite/modern. There are better / more appropriate terms but I suspect those maybe not allowed on this thread (other terms would be less ‘tractor friendly neutral’ 😉)

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Mid PTO would have to be really important for me to drop 70 on an Lxx70 without taking it up a couple notches to an M. m is a very difference class / capability / value at that price point IMO. If need HST or the mid PTO so be it, you get a lot more with an MX or an M and if willing to do used...

    Got some advice for a “3 way” ……….(from my wife…;)…..(she thinks it’s better in the front, not the rear?)

    You are damn right…you trolled me real good. I did not go so far as to put on the Marvin Gaye, but I did check to make sure not April Fools day. I did not go so far as to turn down the lights. You had me at 3 way! The last one was one of best days of my life! Great job and carry on. Love...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Thank you for the pics. I have not done Christmas lights with mine yet but I would think that has some potential. I love mine. Way safer. I wish I had it when I put up the bowl box.

    3302 Vs. 2501 (first tractor)

    Without doing the math, that’s the better share of a full day I’d guess…maybe more Depending on how fast you can go and keep your teeth. (I dont think you would do much more than an 1 acre in 30-45 minutes…that might be pushing it with a 5’ cutter depending on your comfort and grass)

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Good call on the basket! i delayed purchase of one for years but they are a game changer for tree trimming, shooting lanes, deer stand maintenance and installs, gutters, etc. would you take some close ups of you cables on the SSQS levers? That looks slick and I am interested in what you did...

    3302 Vs. 2501 (first tractor)

    OP, good day. are You planning to mow the whole 40 acres? (How many acres plan to mow?) if so I would think about how long that would take with the width of cut you are are planning and make sure that makes sense for your use. if thinking about future livestock I would think about if you...

    Is a B2401 or L2501 too small...

    OP, good day. for me I would wonder frequency of moving large bale before deciding. next I would wonder do the low branches need a healthy pruning? small machine definitely more maneuverable, how ever for larger tasks I would want some SWLL for error, especially if frequent/repeating tasks...

    My first guess was neighbor screwing with you…if that not it, then can you tell if any claw or teeth marks on the spud?(I would wonder some critter digging it out). Might be time to deploy Trail camera. Could be he ghost of a groundhog from seasons past taking their revenge on you, or maybe a...

    Do you feel better off today than you did one year ago?

    NP…spending other people’s money is one of my super powers. I don’t remember the specific thread / models you were considering, but I hope you found it helpful and you are happy with whatever it end up with. I probably saw it but forgot which thread. happy tractorin’

    Do you feel better off today than you did one year ago?

    I have more implements today than I did one year ago, so IMO I am doing better from a tractorin’ standpoint.

    Nice coloring…sure has grown! mine do the same. I use the ears as a rear sight. I believe they are looking for invaders to their sovereign territory (at least that’s what I think mine are doing).
