    Ideas/Advice stray dogs

    I have had, and will continue to have dog problems killing for sport. They pack up and kill. I love dogs and have one as a pet, but he is never off my property and causes no harm. Bullets and predator foot traps are effective. I have found that ”spreading the word on dog problems” only gets...

    personal protection in the heat, ticks, poison ivy?

    You are very welcome. I have battled ticks for many years using deet. That didn’t work so well, better than nothing. After several years ago when I pulled one of those little MFers off the back of my nut sack, I called Fights On. I have several friends that have had, and Still have issues...

    personal protection in the heat, ticks, poison ivy?

    I bought a gallon of concentrated permethrin on Amazon that I dilute and use spray bottles to spray my farm working cloths and boots after every wash. After working in the woods or fields I go straight to washing machine when coming inside and wash and dry on hot. I use a rack to hang my...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    OSHA… I would never get anything done. I woke up from a 8 ft ladder fall with cracked ribs and bad headache. Bucket for me.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Safer to climb in ( or use ladder to get in ) FEL bucket to cut limbs up high as opposed to just use ladder with chain saw.

    First Time Buyer MX4700

    I have used and owned 2WD, 4WD, HST, Geared w shuttle shift. Even though your land is flat, tilling or plowing will work much better with 4WD. It certainly can be done with 2WD however. FEL is a must for any farm work. I personally like HST for smaller mowing tractors. For all other, I...

    Considering a L5030 HSTC

    Your diesel engine in your Kubota will last your lifetime and beyond. I’ve had many several Cummins truck engines that never failed with very high miles. I know the LORD uses people to spread his kingdom. I know, because I didn‘t believe for a long time. From a friends death from the...

    Considering a L5030 HSTC

    Dishonest, Clueless, Wanker. From the questions you have asked me on how I operate my gear drive, you should not be calling ANYBODY clueless, let alone names. You are funny however, that $hit is hilarious. When you grow up, we can all talk about some of the funny things you would say when you...

    Considering a L5030 HSTC

    He answered talking about me, directly answering me “ but I try to be open and HONEST about their differences without any bias”. He inferred I was not honest in my post. But it’s whatever, I would not call someone out like that. He talked smack, and then never gave opinions on the pros of...

    Considering a L5030 HSTC

    No. Get the gear you want from first row for speed, along with corresponding engine RPM to get your 540 RPMs on PTO for example and set that ( if you don’t know how, look it up). You might want to adjust gears with engine RPMs if too fast or bumpy or whatever then reset. At turn, depress...

    Considering a L5030 HSTC

    Don’t know Flip. I think I said running that saw on front that HST is prob better for that application, but I do the same thing with a different implement for tree trimming with shuttle shift without complaint. i Don’t need validating, I’m just giving my opinions on doing the same things with...
