It is really too late now to transplant safely. For the average person to transplant a tree this size, bare root is likely to be your best option. It will allow you to get more of the roots (farther out from the trunk) without worrying about a root ball you cannot handle or ball properly. Waiting till fall? By fall the tree will not grow any more until spring so spring is better IMHO. Sometime in march well before but break. this will allow the transplant just before the growth season so the tree will re-establish more quickly than just putting it there in the fall just to sit till spring.

Here's the results of the clutch biopsy; clutch was assembled backwards on the assembly line. The clutch plate has two sides to it, mine was assembled the wrong way causing the rivets to engage the pressure plate. The problem apparently didn't show up until the clutch was broken in. It appears that "Friday Afternoon Assembly" isn't unique to automakers. The dealer is taking care of the problem with a new clutch and pressure plate accompanied by carefull assembly. I should have it back by the end of the week...all warranty work. Thanks to all that offered ideas.

Happy tractoring will be back with the beagles in short order.

It sounds like a flow restriction, especially since the float will still allow flow. Check your couplings to make sure they are plugged in properly. Even if they are, make sure there isn't something stuck it one of the poppit valves. Sounds like a poppit is stuck. There probably isn'ty anything serious wrong with the valve. Just dirt or grime restricting the flow.

They hold up well and look really cool with a snow blower on the front (see my pics) But I would not want on for loader work due to having the forward/reverse located on the right same side as the loader joy stick.

Ken, Just a suggestion, but stop by one of their branches and talk with the new accounts person. Ask them what their policies are. Explain to them what you do and how you would like to do business. Ask about their hold policies. While you are at it, ask to meet the manager and explain once again what you do.

Banking is a relationship business. They need to know you and you them. All too often folks open an account, start doing business without making sure the bank will do what they want done. Interview the bank and if you don't like what you see, go elsewhere. If you do open account relationships, make sure you have a contact person that is preferably an officer that has the ability and experience to make decisions. When a need arises, you can ask the teller to contact that person for approval if needed. Keep your contact person informed if you're doing something unusual. As time goes by, hopefully one can develop mutual trust in each other and a long-term solid relationship will result.

You might say that is the bank's job to take care of you and it is, but one also needs to help create that relationship that will help immeasurably down the road.

Good luck!

Everybody situation is different. You are right what you do is your business nobody else's. A tractor is a big purchase and you should take you time to find the one that suits your needs the best weather it be a sub compact or a 200 hp monster. You are the only one that has to be happy. I also have to say that regardless of what manufacturer you buy from as long as you keep the unit in good shape and maintain it they all have excellent resale value.

Murf, I think you are right. An estimate to clean this up -with hazard pay :) along with a letter from my attorney is the right course of action here.

You get what you pay for, and $1912 is a cheap price for a 1500D. Nothing you describe sounds serious enough to lose the kind of money you'll have invested in round trip freight. Instead, put the money into the tractor. Overheating might simply be a clogged radiator or a bad sending unit - easy fix, either one. Brake problem is likely rust accumulation - another easy fix. Milky UTF sounds like the tractor has lived most of it's life outdoors, so the tire cracks are likely just "sunburn" (surface oxidation). So far, you haven't spent much. Put the money you'd have spent on return freight into the steering problem, and go from there.

This is good information. I was using a Cub Cadet, that was only a few years old before it died on me. I did cut a lot of tall weeds and brush with it, but it seems that it should have lasted longer than that. I will try the Stihl out next week.<br>
Thanks for the good info.

I was quoted in Feb/Mar for the LA1002 at $4,575.00. That was buying it with the tractor. Hope this helps.

I looked at a 7 year old Kubota L4200 (27 hours on a new motor, the old one burned up after a previous owner put a stick through the radiator) today. It comes with a loader, back blade, forklift forks for the loader and a backhoe. It seems to be in good shape, runs great, everything works and the seller is reputable, a friend of my wifes family. The guy wants $18,000. Seem fair?<br>

I have an on demand electric water heater in my place up north. It is the total cats behind!!! I love it. Only takes up about 14" by 3" and works incredible. We love it when we get there at 11pm on a Fri. night and all five of us want to take a shower. Nothing to drain in the winter before leaving (I heat it year round in the house so it would not matter anyway). DOWN side to what you would want it for though.
On the same lines of what Ann said. When it is running (or ON) you get dizzy watching the electric meter run!!! Put it this way, it needs to be on a 70amp breaker!!!! When all three of the elements are turned on ( what ever your demand amount for hot water determines the number of elements that turn on) that meter in cookin!!!
I would think if you plan to use your garage a few times a year it may be ok but would look elsewhere if your use will be higher. No, I take that back, I would look elsewhere anyway for a garage heater. The infloor heat is a awesome system just I would not want the electric bill with an on demand unit installed.

I inquired into this as well, and my NH dealer said that if you have 1, to 1.5 acres of leaves or grass, they it might be ok, other than that, he said to get a tow behind with a vac on it. I will have a serious issue with leaves in the fall, the grass stays or I would be raking for a week....
