Really, I thought Al Gore was responsible for the internet? 😉

If you have KTAC, this would be a good time to drop a dime.

last time I checked, NASA was federally funded. if you are a federal taxpayer than you can consider yourself ‘benefitted’ to be a contributor on a Progressive, I say progressive scale (I am not sure if my tone typed thru but I was going for Foghorn Leghorn). 😉

May they be far enough away that the flight time gives you chance to see and hear impact.

Good day. what are you doing and how are you using when you have a concern? Is this when you are using to or loader or just driving? In either case why range settings you in? Is pedal to the floor board? Simple solution to whine is ear plugs.

Does getting ‘turned on a little’ count as triggered? It’s threads like these that make me wish there was a drooling emoji.

I never put a chipper on my BX, but I have put a WC68 (900ish lbs) and it’s a handful for my B. B will run it fine. To move it though need the loader on (I suspect if enough front ballast maybe could do without loader.). I bought the WC68 knowing eventually I would use on my MX…B runs it fine...

IMO 26ish hp would be a good start, unless you want something smaller. if no need a Mid pto, I would be looking for a standard L. They are are sort the right balance of stance and weight like a Ford 8n for small tasks, still pretty compact, enough weight to get traction, and great value/dollar...

Same here…I made the first today mow too. probably sneak a till in within the month…if I get bored the wood chipper will be soon to follow.

Price is price…is that a good deal? IMO for that model is a decent price. Having started with a BX and worked my way to a B and also an MX, I would encourage you to consider is the model you are looking at the correct application for whatever is in your 5 year plan(unless you have a commercial...

NP…I really value craftsmanship and creativity as it’s easy for anyone to throw stones. When someone crafts a solution for their application (solves a problem), that’s great and I appreciate these type of threads. It doesn’t take much talent (beyond spec and negotiate) to buy a solution...

Congratulations on your new equipment. my recommendation before getting happy with the throttle would be: 1. If not already done so, read the manuals 2. Check all the service points (make sure nothing loose, zerks lubed / oil filled before use) 3. Measure and check the length of the PTO...

IMO, the BX is a diesel powered wheelbarrow if you get the loader. If you simply want to mow, zero turn is superior. If you want the all purpose utility there is no comparison. I’ve said before it should be illegal for a dealer to sell a BX without the loader and someone got their feelings...

I have two words for you sir: outstanding craftsmanship 🥃

That’s good, it’s because they probably need it! 😂. clearly I am not loyal to the beholden to green…Snarky comment aside, actually I am normally all for deregulation, however in this case I do appreciate that 45-47 was looking out for the folks that make the food. normally the MFGrs love...
