But Murf - I use counter weight attached to my 3pt hitch on my Kubota & load my loader up all the time without any problems, been doing it since I bought it new in 04'. I see others doing it all the time also, should Doug's tractor be able to also within reason?

Murf will they let me bring my safe? Several large cal handguns several Bolt rifles many shotguns and several AR's plus 1500+ lbs of ammo, bullets, primers, powder. I'll leave tools tractor and rest of stuff here. I'm only moving with the important stuff. Maybe I'll squeeze in my reloading stuff also.

[QUOTE=wmgeorge;160644] Regardless either wayI am going to send this on to my friend who was an engineer for John Deere here in Iowa before he retired. He now does consulting work for JD part time. [/QUOTE]

The other thread on broken tractors reminded me of this thread.

Any word back from your friend yet?

Best of luck.

Did you have any luck in finding the gray market tractor club regarding your Shibaura tractor. If you would please send me any thing to help me obtain a manual or something to decipher the japanese symbols.

I like to think that there's no such thing as a "lemon" tractor, but I've read of major structural and electrical problems with some New Hollands.

We used to see quite a few Hummers around here. My 13 year old loved them. I explained to him that in reality that fancy Yellow Hummer was just a GM Cheverolet Suburban jazzed up in a fancy suit ( I used Clown Suit .. I am trying to be considerate to any current owners). <br>
<br>
So the bottom line was that the Hummer was hig on cool, low on practical for the Soccer moms that drove them to the Mall!<br>

By the way the up until 2007 I was guilty of the same Oversize issue having my Petite wife drive a Toyota Tundra, with only groceries as the payload :(<br>

yeah I finally made a decision. I had to decide between the JD 2305 and the Kubota 2360. The dealerships let me move a little snow around with each one. The Kubota had enough power to take up 2" of snow off pavement. The JD wouldn't do it. Called a dealer to get the whole package. A 54" muching deck, a 47" blower and a 48" blade. When talking to the two dealers closest I didn't get a good feeling about the customer service on the JD. The Kubota offered all kinds of service. He was willing to meet after hours or on a weekend to close the sale. The JD I had to call back just o get a price. The attitude seemed to be here's the price take it or leave it. Looking forward to having it.

If your tractor doesn't have a slip (= over-running) clutch on the PTO driveshaft, a spinning implement like a mower or tiller could kill somebody by moving the tractor (clutch pedal down or no) until it stops rotating. Costs maybe $70.

Gear is more trouble-free than chain, but would take more to fix if it fails. And you see when the chain is rusty and dry, but if you forget to lube the gearbox there's no reminder.

Size doesn't much matter. With wider, you go slower and shallower at first and could have traction problems on wet or uphill ground, and tillers are heavy so make sure the hitch can lift it. But fastest under good conditions. Smaller is a bit cheaper and easier to store, and may let you go deeper faster. Usually you want it to be wide enough to cover the rear wheel-tracks.

I'd want one with a good dust shield and with the right length driveshaft rather than having to search for one after.

When you say the the word "commercial" for lawn cutting, if you are serious you really should be talking a zero radius rider and or walk behind. The crews around here have a couple of each on their trailers, simply the fastest highest quality cut you can get. In lawn cutting time is money.

If this is just to cut your lawn, and then have your son cut a neighbors lawn once in a while the lawn tractor might be good enough.

I used to use Scag mowers years ago, I mow with my Kubota B7610 tractor with 60 inch deck and I like it as I have one machine to do snow, dirt and grass, the cut is good the speed is OK for me, but the zero's do the lawn better hands down.

A very hard question to answer. With the poor economic climate leading to excellent dealer discounts and financing getting a good price on a used machine may be difficult. My guess would to start with an asking price maybe 15% off of what you paid for it and then be willing to drop to 25% off. And that's a guess.
