    4 Vs. 3 Cylinder Diesel

    And to add what Stumpy said. I had a Honda Goldwing GL1800 which was a flat 6 and boy oh boy was that a smooth engine. I could balance a coin on the engine valve cover and it not fall over when the engine was running and even burping the throttle would keep the coin standing up.

Months later no trailer, but lots of excuses, and he finally said that if it was not returned by the next day he would call it in as stolen. One week went by and the police...

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Shredded leaves. Attached my chipper/shredder to a small pallet and picked it up with the tractor and went around the house/fence/yard and shredded leaves. When I need to chip bigger stuff I drop the pallet and pick up for the other side.

    I looked at the BX but instead went with the B as I liked the longer, taller, wider, better ground clearance aspect. With the B I feel better moving my 16' trailer around.
