I'm renting a bobcat the weekend after next with a front loader and auger attachment

this may be the pinnacle of my home projects

I might just go full blown killdozer with it and run over all the Biden signs in the neighborhood

Logan got a little Kabuto tractor a few months ago at a farm auction, I don't think he's used it once. It's a nice little tractor though. You could do some damage with it...

Kabotas are pricey. My MIL had one, let it set outside without driving it for a few years. So bad the rim rusted and I had to get it welded to work.

I messed around with it for a day and got it running. Put an ad on craigslist and sold it the next day. People love owning them.

He got it for $7500, only had like 80 hours on it. Basically brand new. He had a bid in for $6500 and I thought he was about to get it but then somebody bid $7000, so he got fucked out of $1000. Still, that was a good deal on something that was virtually new, I think they're twice that (or more) new...

There were several other comparable models (a little bigger actually, but far from full sized tractors) that were much older (and not Kabota's), they went for like $1500. That's all you need, really...

You can get stuff like that all day long at farm auctions around here...

Fascinating stuff

You can buy solid running Ford 8N tractors for $1500 all day around here

The Massey 65's in good shape are about $3500

A Kubota 3 cylinder diesel - like a B7400 model is about $4500

I'd like to putz around with a tractor when I sell my home. The plan is to get 4 - 12ish acres in maybe 3 years

Then you can drive the tractor angrily like Quint

I"m gonna need a bigger tractor

See if you can find a 1950s Farmall. I have a special place in my heart for those. I never liked John Deere. Fuck those big green things.

People around home like to use Farmall 140's in their gardens.

They were also popular for pulling tobacco trucks.

I drove a Farmall putting in tobacco. I had the highly specialized job of trucking bulk racks to the barn. It required special skills, unlike the hand-cropping job that Hedge had.

that's a good tractor for just messing around,which is all I'd ever do.

I used those big dual wheel enclosed cab with a/c tractors when I worked on a real farm. Its not much different that using a small one.

Real farms don't have air-conditioned tractors, city boy.

I married a farmers daughter so that must mean I'm a city boy, or at least that how the joke goes,or maybe I was a traveling door to door salesman

Damn, did you ever go up in the hayloft and get it on?

Didn't Gator tell some story about banging a thick-legged girl from NC in a hayloft one time?
