Topic

Swallows and dragon flies make excellent traps. If you have any in your area promoting a few in your yard sure helps cut down the bugs. So does mowing the grass short as well as getting rid of any standing water. Rain barrels and old tires make bunches of bugs.

We put up a few houses for tree swallows at our camp. Works really well and the swallows take exception to us being on our deck only occasionally. Many agents that kill mosquito larva probably kill dragon fly larva as well.

A good friend of mine has been selling Mahindra tractors here in eastern Ipowa for a couple years now. He's told me lots of good things about them, like parts avaiabilaty, etc., but I really haven't taken the time to look one over yet. I've allways been pretty staunch about sticking with Blue, Green, or Orange becaus of their reliabilaty records and all have good dealer networks and parts systems. After visiting with my Mahindra dealer friend maybe after proving themselves the Red ones may join the big three. Take care of that "M" Farmall, I've only got four or five of them and might need another one someday. From another old Farmer, Frank.

Once you test drive the HST it will sell itself. I just bought one. I looked at the GST, but once I test drove the HST it was all history. In my opinion there is no comparison. I run the loader, bush hog, box blade, rake. It performs like a champ.

9 inch is the smallest. If Deere no longer stocks them (the web site says they are obsolete) you can buy them from any Ameriquip dealer.

They go for about $275-300 new and are interchangeable with the 47 hoe.

from one landscaper to anouther, Can you possibly afford one size bigger? Maybe a tc33? Do you also plow snow? Do you mount sanders on the back of your trucks? Loading the sand will be easier with the higher loader reach of the bigger machine. It might be worth spending more now to get what you need, then to outgrow it quickly & hassle with trading it in later.

My 2615 has only 9 hrs so far but I am happy, no very happy so far. These are in short supply and were Cub Cadets for years. Which line were you looking at? Various companys make differnt models. This is a heavy duty unit and dose what they say it will do.

Speedy, I don't see a B21 is that last years model? I see a b24. That seems like alot of $$$ for a tractor of that size and hp. Are you paying for cruise controll, tilt wheel hst trans etc. If so, you should look at what you are going to do with it and what might come up in the future. If you are using most anything but the front loader a standard trans is fine, tilt wheel??? Cruise conroll??? If it where me I would be looking at the L series the L3400 or L4300, more horse, bigger impements, higher more powerful lift front and rear. You can get a L4300 with 45 hp 4wd std shift with loader for around 19,000. and the 3400 for alot less. Maybe last years L3000 32 hp at a real dicount. Either will twitch logs with a Farmi or Fransgard, run a decent self feed chipper, run a nice size rear bush hog. Southern pine aren't light, they will need to be lifted and hauled, maybe loaded with forks. That is where the 3 pth lift comes in and the height the loader will lift.

I have a 4400 MFWD that is 2.5 years old (700 hrs). We operate a ten acre vegetable farm. I have replaced the rock shft control valve and several components in the front axle assembly. Recently both sides of the front end locked up while running in 2WD. The dealer took it apart, put it back together and told me they couldn't identify the problem. Can anyone direct me to lists of documented problems, recalls, PIPs, etc for this machine. I'm very disappointed with this tractor and the dealer.

I haven't found a killer winch deal yet so still don't have one. I haven't missed having one so from my current perspective it would have been a waste of money. If I get stuck again, though, that could change :)

Doing your own maintenance doesn't void your warranty unless you use materials that are out of spec. Just buy the right stuff (I buy my supplies from my dealer), keep the receipts, follow the manual, and they must honor the warranty. Car warranties work the same way--just keep the receipts. I've had warranty work done on my tractors before (tranny) and the question of who did the maintenance was never asked. I suppose if a part wears out way before the expected failure time they might ask what kind of oil and filters you were using.

"I'm not worried about lift capacities, flow rates, etc. I used to worry about things like that, till I realized it only leads to premature aging and insanity."

Ha! That explains my grey thinning hair!

I haven't seen position control on any machine in this class.

The ROPS are usually well under the height of your average garage door unless you are getting one with a backhoe.
