    Disc plow for RTV 1100

    I need to buy a disc plow to take care of already established food plots and to create new ones. Any suggestions? I don't have a three-point hitch on my Kubota. The dealer in Brundidge, Alabama told me that hitch would cost 700 dollars with installation. Way too much. If I buy that I won't be...

    Is X1100 Heating/Cooling as good as auto?

    I have an 1100 and heater and a.c. work very well. I live in Southeast Alabama, close to the Florida line, and the a.c. unit keeps me cool even when the temperature gets in the upper nineties. Last year, though, the dang mice that keep invading my garage built a nest behind the radiator and...

    DANG MICE! My RTV 1100 was overheating and the a/c was working only intermittently or not at all (it's in the mid-nineties here in Alabama). I took it to the dealer's a couple of weeks ago and they found mice had nested behind a radiator, reducing the air flow, and had chewed on the a/c unit's...

    overheating!

    This convinces me even more to have the dealer look at it.

    overheating!

    Unfortunately my garage is also where I keep chicken and horse feed and it's a magnet for mice. I have poison everywhere but obviously they prefer the horse and chicken feed. I wish I could catch a dozen rat snakes and put them in the garage.

    overheating!

    I think I'll take it to the dealer's and let someone take a look at it. I am not even all thumbs, as each one of my hands ends in 5 big toes... An example? Last year I noticed that my Argo's ignition was erratic. At times it started, at times it wouldn't. I lifted the hood and noticed sparks at...

    overheating!

    No, there was no steam or fluid burping out. And it was a very warm day, and I was indeed in the throttle much. I'll check the whole thing again. I sure hope Lucky (the snake) gets those bastards. P.S. Is the cover meant to keep fools like me from getting their fingers chopped off?

    overheating!

    My RTV 1100 is overheating. I had routine maintenance done at the dealer's and then it sat in the garage for a long time. Last Saturday when I went dove hunting it overheated. I noticed when I lifted the hood that there was a strong smell... of mice. Could mice have made a nest somewhere in the...

    Heck, I have to pay a guy to have my horse's tons of poop shoveled and moved out of the stall and paddock every now and then. You can come down here, Mark, with a big trailer and I'll give it to you for free--as long as you shovel and load it...

    I like my 2013 Ford F150, but I would not buy the new Ford pickups made out of recycled Coke cans... If they get dinged, first of all it will be hard to find body shops able to work on aluminum. Furthermore, I saw somewhere (TV? Net?) that body repairs are going to be extremely expensive. But I...

    Maybe. But we used to have a 69 Pontiac Le Mans (3.5 L) that my wife bought used before we got married, and we sold it in 1981 when it had 178,000 miles and was still going. Only one major repair: the timing chain slipped and had to be replaced, at about 100,000 miles. I drove that car through...

    I am looking forward to having my 2013 F 150 paid off. Unfortunately it's not going to happen any time soon. I still owe almost seven grand and am paying 400 dollars a month. Yes, hard times are coming. With You-Know-Who in the White House we can all look forward to a repeat of the Carter...

    Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!

    It seems to come from the right hand side where the A/C controls are, but with my messed-up ears it's hard to tell. When I had the bed raised and the engine idling it seemed to come from a gadget on the right hand side close to the back of the cab (passenger's side). But I'll have to take the...

    Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!

    When I first start my RTV 1100 I hear that sound for 30 seconds or so until the engine warms up. If I turn the A/C off it stops. If I turn it on it starts again. Then, after about 30 seconds it stops altogether, both with the A/C on and off. I hope it's nothing serious. I don't have a trailer to...

    disc cultivator

    I thank you all. Yes, I could connect the cultivator to the bed hydraulics, if I got the kit. I'm sure the Kubota dealer has one and can install it. Me, I have trouble replacing windshield wiper blades on my truck, and changing a faucet washer is too daunting for me to attempt. I'll let the...

    disc cultivator

    I would like to buy a disc cultivator to tow behind my RTV 1100. There are so many on the market I can't decide which one I want. When I read the reviews I become even more confused: X falls apart after a couple of hours; Y is too light and just bounces on the ground without cutting into it; Z...

    For want of a screw...

    Today I went with my wife to refill a feeder. I parked the 1100 by the feeder, letting the engine run in neutral with the parking brake set. When we were done I tried to release the parking brake, but when I pushed the side button the handle (the plastic part with the button and the finger...
