    Yup. If it were mine I'd just go drive it. In circles if need be. I like my tractor.....

    Although I'm not a fan of loading tires in many cases, your case does sound like loaded fronts would help quite a bit. It's keeps the...

    Great decision. You must be super happy. Hydraulic front post hole digger must have cost a bit. Does the M have enough flow to drive it...

    I don't think they want you to turn up and rob you. They'll want a deposit or otherwise to take online payment. They don't exist, and...

    1. There can be scams. Deals too good to be true aren't true. Usually ask them for photos of something specific and obscure that you...

    I upgraded from a BX to a B. I originally bought the BX as my first tractor, because I thought it was all I needed. I bought it second...

    Aha. So your main beef is that it's not an LX. :-) Which is fair. It's not, and if you need an LX or an L, then a B is too small...

    If you want to mow with it, I wouldn't get a B26. It's unsatisfying mowing with a loader on.

    I think the operator platform on the B2601 can be a bit cramped for a larger guy - I know that's a problem some people have. Not a...

    A B2601 is basically the same length and width as a BX, it's just taller. Being taller it has better ground clearance, bigger wheels...

    HST is definitely better for tree work and anything loader related. Yes, you can do it with gear drive, but I definitely wouldn't have a...
