if you can't get a Kubota FEL, perhaps an aftermarket company may have one. I know Woods has made aftermarket loaders-I'm sure there are other...
They are tough tractors. My dad had a 444 and then a 448 with belly mowers when I grew up.
I have a pair of suspenders that have the Kubota name on them. Don't know the brand but they work well on heavy wool pants and plan on trying them...
What will you be cutting? Working in the woods or cutting up logs? I'm a Stihl guy- I have a 260, 400, and a 461. The 50cc saw is my "handy saw",...
This is what I do-FWIW. I burn 7-8 gallons of gas in my mowers weekly during the season. I run just regular pump gas in those. Around Oct.1, I add...
My brother sold his 461 (he bought a 500i) to his logger friend for $800 a couple of months ago. Saw was beautiful, and obviously the logger knows...
Always have a spare chain for the 16" bar on my 260, and a spare 20" chain for the 400 and the 461. I carry them in my small ammo box that I...
I would add a vote for a commercial zero turn if all you'll do is mow. I have a 14-year-old Toro, 1400 hours on it. I've replaced one belt, one...
I have had a Kubota 900 for 9 years now. It lives on my 10 acres, my brother's 80 acres across the road and the 75-acre hunting lease we have next...
Logrite/Stihl unless you like a wood handle-then a Peavey brand.
I have one for my Kombi tool and like it. Quite a workout using it but much better than a rake.
My brother and my mechanic friend can borrow anything, anytime. Doubtful they would ever break something, but if they did it would be...
I agree with Backwoods-a person's salary should be theirs. I also give all my new teaching hires the advice of setting up a 403-teachers version...
Well one 400 is in my barn! Went to get oil and air filters for my mowers and there was a 400 on the shelf. Cost $20 more than Christmas time. Had...
Probably have spent time playing Atari and Pacman when I was younger. Have a casino 5 miles from my house-been there 6-8 times for banquets in the...
I have an 18' aluminum utility trailer with stowable ramps. The biggest thing I would have done differently was to buy a 10k trailer instead of a...
I cleaned up after logging jobs with my father 40 years ago. He knew several loggers (he logged in the 1960s and early 70s but had switched to...
Interesting topic. I know my brother and I can cut a tri-axle load of logs in 4 hours or so. We take the logs off the pile with a loader, lay...
I am kind of a homebody, but I hear what you are saying about the wrong food being everywhere. It is really hard during deer season-seemed like I...
I had some medical problems (Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure) in June of 2020 and needed to lose weight and limit carbs. I ate pretty...
