    Heeelllppp! Marketing!

    OK so I finally got around to changing up the ad. I got rid of the cockyness I had in it before and I think I've kept it more to the point. http://richmond.craigslist.org/fgs/4359160224.html

    A little input please

    That is a shame for sure what happened to that innocent little girl. No I don't see you as being raciest for merely talking about the current events. Down here in my neck of the woods there has been a bunch of shootings lately. 3 different drive by shootings into 3 different homes in a matter...

    L3800HST Stump Grinder?

    A hoe works fine on small trees and scrubs. But anything with any hefty root zone to it a compact backhoe wont dig it out. Most land clearing companies use a bulldozer or heavy excavator for pushing tree and roots over.

    best bits & worse bits about your orange friend.

    For me and my needs the B6100 I have makes for an excellent turf tractor for mowing and aerating. But not having a loader is a huge down fall, and a larger size to operate the loader would be nice too.

    L3800HST Stump Grinder?

    Welp then its pretty justifiable to buy one then. As far as wear and tear on a tractor I don't know anybody who owns one to give you an answer. The tree guys I know own Vermeer grinders.

    How old were you when you got your first Kubota?

    Damn! now your going to make me think and do math! I'm putting a rough guesstimate that I bought my B6100 used in 2002 and that would put me at 20 years old at the time. I knew right away the ONLY tractor I was going to purchase was a Kubota. My inital intent was to buy the B6100 as a starter...

    L3800HST Stump Grinder?

    I'm kinda biased about buying a stump grinder at 3-5 grand versus renting one for a long weekend or a week to do what needs to be done. Its one of those items yeah its nice to own but once the job is done you wont need it anymore. And as far as grinding on the side you're limited to the types of...

    Implement Suggestions for BX25 and landscaping

    I suppose maybe a pine straw rake might be delicate enough to do the work and not cause but so much harm.

    Implement Suggestions for BX25 and landscaping

    Thats going to be a tough and delicate project to tackle. Most homeowners love to leave areas like that as a "natural" area. It will be a challange to clean the gounds up so you dont to damage to the roots of trees you'd like to keep. As a landscaper I'm racking my brain trying to figure out a...

    Kubota 4 wheel drive tractor w/ loader - $11000

    It always tickles me the most that sellers on Craigslist want millions of dollars for old shit! You can ask what every price you want... doesn't mean someone is going to pay it.

    Kubota 3300 or Deere 3038e ?

    That JD3520 has a Japanese heart beat anyway! Atleast Kubota is its own threw and threw.

    Operating Cutter with L3200DT

    I'll never understand why newbies come on here and ask the senior vets for advise then go out and do the total opposite when we give sound advise.

    Operating Cutter with L3200DT

    I agree with Bulldog on that one! You'll regret not having the live pto later down the road. You have to ease the clutch out ever so slowly with a tranny driven pto so you dont launch the tractor forward and stalling it out. Every time you want to turn around you have to ease the clutch out alot...
