Old post but in its class the Kioti 7320 is a feature-packed/value buy. I was really considering one...ended up going with a larger New Holland but Kioti makes an awesome machine at a good price point and their larger tractors are even pretty dern nice.

Beautiful truck! I own an '06 Dodge/Cummins dually, 6-speed manual transmission, and love it BUT these older Dodges are really appealing to me more and more the older I get. Have fun!!

Nice looking truck. Oh, Copperas Cove... haha. It's all good at Fort Hood (Cavazos now)...

Concur. Had a '91 F-150 with the 302 and a '91 with the diesel. The 302 pulled better even after adding an aftermarket turbo to the diesel, LOL. Will agree that the 300 inline six deserves a lot of credit...that thing is a torque beast and pulled quite well, in my experience. Aunt had one...

I must have missed something... Zombies are my biggest concern. <haha>

OK, I understand and I greatly appreciate your help. I'll consider this as an option or even supplement. Thank you again.

Pictures are worth a thousand words... most of the time. Can you please elaborate on the setup?

I have high tensile electric fence on part of my property where sheep are kept. I am moving the charger inside because there's no sense in leaving an expensive charger out where it is up for grabs. I know others have similarly moved their chargers inside. Wondering about lightning protection...

Hehehe. Now just want to figure out WHO is buying new tractors and how this can actually be justified. My neighbor and folks here really made a strong case for the lack of any real need -- assuming I can get someone to come cut. Nobody will cut a couple acres, which put me in a rough position...

Thank you for this. So...taking everything into consideration, the bottom line is I'm not buying. Listened to an old farmer today across the road who also strongly advised against it. His input is to pull animals off the entire farm in March, pay someone to hay it all in June, and put animals...

Appreciate this. We're like minded on the independence thing and also on having the ability to help neighbors. Thank you.

I tend to agree...love the old/mechanical stuff...but anything I buy that's older would need to still have parts readily available and would also need to be fully restored, mechanically. So there's an added cost for that. I've wondered what such restoration work would cost.

3 to 35, now, up to 100 later. My current farm is not my forever farm.

So another weed question... What is this, how can I get rid of it without chemicals (ideally)? Can I hand pull, with any diminishment in return next season? It isn't on my entire farm (yet) but I'd like to nip this in the bud as I consider developing my pastures to market hay. Thank you for...
