    Ain’t that the truth.... the “news” is saying to expect bacon to hit 10 bucks a pound... hamburger is 9 bucks/lb... I can ... and do.. get ribeyes for 6/lb. 1/2” cdx is 50/sheet. Alfalfa is 20 freaking bucks for 115 lb bale, If it weren’t for cheap whiskey I’d really be whining. Glad I got my...

    Would a BX 1880 meet my needs?

    I have the 1880... I have 5 acres and my steepest grade is about 8 degrees. While I don’t have to worry about snow I have yet to find myself saying “ crap... I shoulda went bigger.

    Frustration with waiting on new Kubota order

    It was my attempt at sarcasm... I only had to wait 1 week for my stuff.. that was the time it took for the dealer to do what needed done so it all could be delivered... that was one long week

    Buying advice.... DONT BUY A TRACTOR

I drug a 10 foot section of highway guard rail with about 200 pounds of rock on it to pull the weeks down. This year with my tiny tractor and the 48” brush hog in...

    I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about this in the past week... and you guys pretty much confirmed most of the mistakes I came up with... what seemed most odd to me was there was no issue going in down the hill until I left the blacktop, the grade was the same but as soon as I hit the dirt...
