BX23S Capabilities

[RTG]

You're welcome!

I still think the ripper is a great tool, you may do just fine with the factory bucket, but I think the ripper which is only 1" wide will put a LOT more force on a stubborn root, and break it more readily!

I have the opposite type of soil, some days I think I have more (small) rocks than dirt!

While I don't have a BX, I think I have every accessory they make to fit on my Massey Ferguson ... Piranha Tooth Bar, Thumb, Quick-On, Trenching Bucket, Root Ripper, 2" receiver hitch "Trailer Mover" that while I've had that last one for over two years, I only used it to move a trailer two days ago! Bxpanded has lots of ways to spend our money, but they are all designed and built in the USA!

Fence stretcher!

Are you sure there's not another attachment out there somewhere you don't have

You might want to check with someone local on how the root system of the pines are in your area. Where I am, in central NC with clay soil, the pines are shallow rooted. In the sandy soil of eastern NC where my brother lives, the exact same species of pine will have tap roots that start out about the same size as the trunk of the tree and go down several feet. So my Short Leaf Pines wouldn’t be hard to dig out a little at a time. His Short Leaf Pines, not so much.

I'm new to the S GA area. I moved from N. GA where clay and granite are king. Hated digging anything there. After hurricane Helene came through here a year and a half ago, there were pines toppled everywhere. I haven't seen a tap root on any of them. Just big lateral root balls.

Probably ... But I just got done rearranging my barn, making a second layer ... Tractor attachments and accessories are kinda like Pringles ... You can't have just one!

You've been warned! Run, run away fast with your check book still intact, or succumb to the joys of tractor ownership!

I'm actually contemplating buying number three tractor now ... Certainly could be worse things to spend money, and time on ... I like my tractor time!

Better therapy than paying a shrink!

It’s one of those addictions that’s a joy to have. I think attachments are worst as I am always looking for my next attachment. Have 2 in mind. Wish my pocket book was and large as my dream list.

The tractor is the shrink. The sound of the diesel engine sooths the soul.
