    I wouldn't worry about it, you likely already scared the guy away from this forum.

    Trailer Advice

    Well my new trailer hasn't come in yet, so my dealer lent me a brand new One Sixteen brand 20 foot galvanized equipment hauler to go to a tractor show at the fall fair. I had never heard of that company before but they're made in Ontario. What a difference! So much nicer and safer feeling than...

    15W40 or 5W40

    Been running 5W40 and sometimes 0W40 in Kubota B2620 since 2013 all year round.

    Hydraulic fluid

    Also why I like using my little B2620 as my primary work tractor around my property versus a bigger tractor. It only takes one 5 gallon pail to service it, so no big deal buying a pail every season. I don't even go the 200 hours, just do it seasonal.

    Hydraulic fluid

    Kinda like me. I never deviate from manufacturers filters but I'm comfortable using Rotella T/Petro Canada Duron/Chevron Delo in my engines. Simply because I used to oil sample them through Caterpillar's SOS program and the results proved they were better than most others. But as far as...

    Has anybody used one of these stump grinders?

    Good to hear thanks. I just got tired of maintaining the gas and another engine in my stand alone generator. At least my tractors are always running and I have a few with PTO's. I ordered it with the 3 point carrier cradle instead of trailer. That way I can just leave it on the B when it's parked.

    RTV Cab Interior Lights

    That will work for shifter and dash. I just wanted something more, and higher since the K-Connect controller is not lighted. You would think they could for the price.

    RTV Cab Interior Lights

    So last winter I was trying to figure out how to get some interior light in the cab so that you can see the shifter and the snow blower controls when doing snow removal at night without getting glare on windows. I ended up putting a purple bulb in the interior dome light with a strip of tape on...

    Has anybody used one of these stump grinders?

    I'm considering getting a Bauma Light stump grinder as I just ordered one of their TX12 PTO generators. https://baumalight.com/product/en

    Trailer Advice

    On my aluminum trailer I used to put wood blocks under the rear and the ramp when loading/unloading but my new trailer has the rear jacks which is way nice. Here were my axle weights when I scaled one time while hauling a couple of the antiques to a show. First column is truck and trailer...

    Speculative tractor upgrade - pondering

    Depends on how much you want to spend. I play and maintain on 21 acres total with my B2620 (old version of your B2601) Does everything, only time it lacks is there has been a few occasions where more lifting capacity on the forks would have been nice. On the plus side, fluid changes, tires, etc...

    LX 20 Series with Oversize Tires

    Okay, that makes sense. Thanks.

    What did you do to or on your Kubota today?

    Haven't done much on or to the Kubota's, but just went to dealer and ordered a Bauma Light TX12 PTO generator for them. Might get one of their stump grinders too.

    New MX 4900 on the way - Cab features?

    Oh wow! Kubota finally moved up to this century and is putting cloth seats in the cab models now? All the ones I ever saw before still had the black vinyl seats. Their prices are creeping up on John Deere now so you would think they could offer a more luxurious interior like Deere has.

    LX 20 Series with Oversize Tires

    Has something changed on the LX series? I thought you couldn't run a mid mount mower with the oversized wheel and tire option, but saw a dealer video and they were showing one with the oversize wheels and it had a 72 inch mid mount mower on it.

    Bill of Sale 1969 Ford 3000

    Ya, but a 69 Mustang still looks nicer than any newer Mustang, so I'd still pick it. If I had $300,000 USD to waste I'd buy one of those new Revology Mustang's. They make BRAND NEW 66 to 69 Mustang's with modern brakes and suspension, and your choice of either a 460 h.p. 5.0 Coyote or a 710 h.p...

    Bill of Sale 1969 Ford 3000

    Was that new price? I had read in a Ford book that my 67 3000 diesel sold for $3700 new?

    Trailer Advice

    Minimum 16 foot deck, but I do not recommend aluminum. I just got rid of mine. It had a 5700 pound PAYLOAD capacity and every time I towed it empty, with my 2500 pound Allis or my 5000 pound Ford, it had to go get cracks welded. And I even had to have extra frame members put in it. Yes it was...
