never owned one with a cv but i know they are spendy but the class 6 pto shafts/ujoints arent cheap either - you have to take it easy on the turns for sure !!!!

nalle is from where i grew up, my first cousin married into the nalle family once upon a time, his house is about 15 mins from our place up north and he is launching his new remote business/site along I-35 at the 61mm ( where you exit to go to Jamesport ) for the amish goodies his name is justin but he goes by red he is pricey on his stuff in my opinion but makes a living at it he has combines and tractors both last time i was by a month or so ago

i think they would be cool to shoot one - but the limited arrangement for a scope mount on top and my tired old eyes are not much of a draw for me i do have access to its brother a 1903 springfield from WWI circa 1917 but its got a bent bolt and top mount scope on it - cool ole chevies

Skidsteer best loader unit ive ever ran after running one its frustrating to me using a tractor for loader work
-
depending on how much there is and how large of trees, you could always try a large skidsteer with a root rake/grapple and it will get all of it you want and easier to see the stuff in front of you, ive never driven a dozer so maybe it would be faster/easier - i can just see myself gouging with the dozer and making hump/bumps to drive over with it and everything else after im done 🙈

New Hampshire safety inspections back on!
searcyfarms replied to New Englander's topic in General Chat
i get 15 empty, i can get up to 18 but when the def runs causing more costs and reducing mileage it drops to 15mpg, how is that better for everyone? i get 8mpg loaded my older 6.0 got better but not by a lot. no better gains there a huge loss for cost of vehicle - i do not need ABS, I do not need lane correction/warning or blind spot alerts, I do not need tire pressure sensors, I do not need so many things that the gov has mandated that drive costs to the extent that most cant afford the newer vehicles look at the costs, loss of life expectancy on engines, we cannot sustain the trend - if someone is not maintaining their vehicle are they causing more crashes? wheres the data? how many people have tires on their tractors now that last 40 yrs or more ? i dont believe safety inspections improve anything but the pockets of those doing them. I also do not believe our entire licensing system works - i see MULTIPLE VEHICLES DAILY that are driving around with expired plates, paper temp tags that were never licensed because their old car was so expensive to repair they couldnt afford to fix it, but could afford the payment on a replacement. The also couldnt afford the license fees 6% sales taxes on it, likely cant afford the personal property tax or insurance on it either. how has the cost of all these required items by the EPA and Gov't inspections improved things ? As a whole i think they have cause a trend that has led many people down a black hole. -
favorite was a 1972 ford, most reliable was a 2003 ford 6.0 has over 400K on it and still going, daily is not a truck its a car, current is a 16 F350 i was informed a long time ago that these are pickups - im not sure what the deciding factor is where the truck becomes a truck but my former father in law said its not something that fits in your garage or has 4 wheels

whoa, i dont think i have ever seen it that cold here i think minus 15 or 20 once or twice but thats a rare thing for us - adn yes old and cold seals and metal dont like those kind of temps

the joke storm from the drama queens on tv is over - 3 maybe 4 inches here if you stretch the fish story, they were calling for 10 as usual reality wins

i walked by the 706 in the shop, patted her on the tire and said, not going to make you get out in this stuff - i think i heard a smile

i havent looked but there used to be a station that had kerosene maybe they have no1 over towards warrensburg, mostly because i dont use large quantities, usually keep about 30 gallons around however last weekend when working it was around 10 and i had filled up my jugs at the shell station in cameron mo, my fuel was in the back of my pickup for the skidsteer doing my tree grinding/mowing/mulching so when i went to fill it up they were gelling up, i filled up on the way home and had to put some in the other night and the fuel i got at the Trex station in winston must have had more treatment to it, it was not gelled in the jugs and it was 8 and poured right in my machine. apparently they source it from different vendors
-
i just got in from putting things in the barn, maybe a few degrees warmer will help if needed to plow something, treated the fuel and they are close to power if need to plug them in. Dont plan on getting out unless I need to, got wood and a generator water and enough food for a month of not longer - i think we will all be fine...........this too shall pass
-
