[QUOTE="faster horses, post: 1745731, member: 17524"] We have a great Kubota dealership in town. They do a lot of business, locally owned and the family is well thought of. You see a lot of Kubota tractors around here. Their sales lot is full. Used and new both and other farming implements. People that have Kubota's seem to like them. We have never had one. Friend has a new IHC or maybe a Challenger that he says he can't operate. The grandkids have to help him there is so much technology to it. We have a JD FWD 125 hp that Mr. FH loves. 7520 I think. Bought it new in 2005. Just had to have the dash taken out because of a loose connection which cost $3200 to repair. Basically that's all we have had done to that tractor. I have a McCormick 35hp 😅 that does a lot of the smaller things. Mr FH scoffed at it, but he likes it and uses it. He just built a grapple fork for it out of basically nothing. Got the hydraulic he needed off a neighbors old baler. He's pretty inventive and it keeps him out of trouble. 😁 He built a overhead topper for it too because it has no cab, of course. Gee, the tractors we used for a long time had no cab. I remember getting a canvas 'thing' that kept the warmth from the engine blowing on you to help keep the operator warm. It had a windshield as well, I believe. We were grateful to have it. We have an old 300 International but it's so rough riding that we use the other tractors. This was his dad's so we have kept it up. Mr FH repainted it a few years ago. We have an old 1949 dump truck. That's another story in itself. We bought it in SW Montana, took it to SE Montana when we moved there and now we are in WY we brought it with us. It's one piece of machinery that doesn't owe us a thing. 😄 [/QUOTE]
