I like the fact that you use the equipment rather than abuse it. Dan, from Nova Scotia , Canada
Great job! Great to hear the sound of freedom in the background!
Oh, darn! You stole my thunder, lol.
Hopefully, it’s his range. Maybe he can show the building of a berm?
Morning Mike, great idea to loosen dirt with land plane before dozing and scooping . Mum had right idea in adding pipe. That area would end up being a canyon rather than a swale.
I could watch this all day. No herky jerky movement, just slow and steady. Beast of a tractor and even better operator.
Every time I watch a Morgan video featuring how he takes care of his mom and sister, it makes me realize flowers on Mother's Day don't cut it.
Nice combo Mike, and love that you have the experience not to horse anything to hard or fast ... efficient, yet working within the capacity of the machine ... as you know, fixing and repairing bent or broken attachments gets expensive and time consuming, not to mention the stress on the machine, engine and hydraulics, PTO's etc ... glad your Mom had the foresight to consider the extra run of pipe, better looking, will save lots of time mowing .... AND it will make a great video and showcase Kubota well .... back in the day I did some shaping and drainage on golf courses and always factored in the "40 days and night of rain" in my plan ... taught by some of the best in the business, few thing worse than a huge blow out on a busy course or road .... I hope the family and Pups are doing well
Good morning Morgan’s. Perfect timing I just got my first cup of coffee.
Loader control on Kubota is nice. Very smooth.
Mike, you have a very vast library of talents. Job well done.
Love watching , great music , mom will be happy with the end results !!!! Hello to Hunter !!! Melissa will soon start mapping out the pool area , with her fan base rising quickly !!!!!!
Great setup you got there. I have a Land Pride GS1572 grading scraper for several years. A couples years ago, I added the two back blades so I can use the scraper both ways, forward and reverse. Pushing it makes a huge difference. It's much more agressive and loosen more material faster. Works great for me. Another thing that makes the scraper more efficient is an hydraulic cylinder top link. Look closely at the video and watch how the scraper tends to tilt forward has it accumulates material. With an hydraulic top link, you can reajust the leveling on the fly when that happens. Usefull too when you pass a bump or a large hole. I recommend those two imporvments. It doesn't cost much and it makes implements more efficients.
The top link has been my recommendation as well, but you have to search carefully to find one that fits a Kubota properly, and when you do you will probably have to grind the pin bearing narrower to fit where it pins to the tractor. Also, don’t buy one unless it has a check valve built in. I use the hyd top link on every attachment to adjust on the fly. It’s invaluable IMO.
There are top link cylinders made specifically for that purpose. Both ends are designed to fit the tractor and the implements just like a regular top link bar. I bought mine from my Kubota dealer. You are right that is is not very usefull while mowing with the bushhog but when you lift it and retract the cylinder, the wheel of the bushhog gets much higher. That is good when moving from one place to the other without having to watch your back. Top link cylinder shines more with implements like landplanes, box scrapers, blade scraper, snow blowers and other implements that could need level adjustments.
Good morning to you and yours. With a four wheel drive Kubota it is everything.
Mike you are an amazing equipment operator. Your enthusiasm is infectious!
Do not worry about answering every message .you will both get burnt out trying to do that.
Every one needs to understand that also. You entertain us and we love that.
So no worries .keep up the good work and be safe
Morning Mike from Fairborn OH, another rainy day here. Love the tractor videos. Hope to get garden planted soon. Hello Hunter!
Love watching your videos of everything you and your family are doing. I'm from Tamarac,Florida
Have a Good Day God Bless
Good seeing the Kubota at work. Good morning Hunter!
Mike, don’t bother explaining to the masses as to why you can’t answer back in a timely fashion. If someone can’t understand that you have 31.2 million things to do before answering a question, “Do you like the new interior smell of the tractor?”, chances are your answer won’t even matter to them. Love the videos brother, all the best to you and the family.
31.2 million things to do first, now me i have 33 million other things to do before replying to email or comments on my comment :), i agree with you Salvatore Mike & Melissia are doing a grand job and should not stop,(well not until he answered this comment :) wink) :) :)

I just bought a MX5800 HST w/ a LA1065 loader. I’ve put about 20 hrs on it so far. I absolutely love my Kubota tractor!
Nice work Mike. I am going out to work on my tractor after this video and my coffee is done. Have a Day!
Love those 3 sounds of liberty and freedom at the end.
Hello Morgan's. Great video as always. Gonna take a bit getting used to seeing Kubotas. Lol. Tractor sounds great. Great job leveling Mike. Have a day!
As I was watching and listening to you work the loader I thought boy howdy that really sounds solid. Then at the end you mention just that. Noticeable quality.
Howdy Morgans, Mike your operating skills are self evident in the smoothness of your motion. It appears you are not moving much dirt however you are you just make it look easy. In my experience when someone makes something look easy they are very accomplished at what they are about. Have A Day! ;~)
Very nice job Mike!That land plane is great...like it
You’re a good man Mike. You take care of your family and friends and that’s pretty cool.
I just did a similar job yesterday, I used my tiller instead of a land plane (I don't have a land plane - yet).
It's amazing how many people underestimate the power and ability of compact, and subcompact tractors.
Good morning Morgan's. Looks like it's about time to enjoy another fantastic video, while drinkin' BRCC coffee with Mike N' Melissa, the daughters & Hunter, on this gorgeously sunny morning.
You said you had people in giles county, what town do/did they live?
Kubota has bought many companies relating to farming and home owners so now they are a company to be placed at the top of the food chain in engines and equipment for the public.....good choice Mike......also enjoy all the vlogs from the Morgan family...
Good morning from Yukon. Have a great weekend.
Morning Mike, great idea to loosen dirt . We have a kubota and a dozer both, use them almost the same way. Kubotas are tough before dozing and scooping . Mum had right idea in adding pipe. That area would end up being a canyon rather than a swale. You are so smooth in that tractor. You can tell you've done a lot of it before! Lookin good!
Nice work as always Mike. Let's see more of that skidding winch.
I am in love with that tractor man. I saw the traction control cut in with that one shot you did right along the ground there. That tractor is really something.
You are so smooth in that tractor. You can tell you've done a lot of it before! Lookin good!
Or its an easy tractor to drive! Modern tractors r very easy to operate
Morning Mike, excellent work with your Kubota Tractor this morning. That brute sure does make your job easier. You’re doing a great job operating the tractor, so smooth and looks great. Thanks for sharing with us. Fred.
Thanks Fred!
Even grandma could run one of these that good with hydrostatic transmissions and a joystick. Heck you watch grandma knit. Those needs are working with her fingers in automatic mode. 😀
Smooth looking machine. Great video
That land plane sure makes a nice, smooth finish on a spot.
Mike I watch your channel for quite a while now you’re a very good operator let the equipment do the work but you don’t abuse it
Nice dirt work Mike. I am doing some ditch work the exact came way right now except with a Box blade.
I recently traded my 2015 MX 5800 in for a new MX6000 with the factory 3rd function valve. The 5800 didn't offer the 3rd function and I had to use one of the rear remotes for the grapple. I have owned and run several brands of compact tractors and by far the Kubota has the best hydraulics and smoothest loader control I've ever used. Not to mention, the loader is just over built so you don't have to worry about bending or breaking it.
The MX is just a basic,simple 3 range hydro and doesn't have all the fancy features like the Kubota Grand L or the JD 4000 series but is over $10,000 cheaper! Most other brands including JD won't smoothly lift and dump at the same time. I also have a Korean made New Holland Boomer 33 that has great lift capacity but when lifting a bucket load of dirt the lift speed slows way down and almost stops when the bucket is dumping. I have owned 5 of the older Japanese made New Holland "Ford" compact tractors, and they were nice machines but now they're made in Korea and just aren't the same. Stay away from the Korean and India made tractors. The Japanese figured out the compact tractor years ago and in my opinion only, still make one of the best. And best of all, at least in upstate New York there is a Kubota dealer about every 25 or 30 miles.
Mike - Another great video. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, it is pure pleasure watching you work your magic with your equipment. I think I remember you saying this tractor had weighted tires when it arrived. Am guessing that's what reduced the wheel spin, and your ability to use both the loader and the land plane at the same time. Those pins on the front of the land plane really do a great job of breaking up the soil so you can use the loader on the next pass. Blessings to you, Melissa, and your family. Hi to the Hunt man.
Thanks for all the info.
Thanks for sharing
God bless stay safe. And tell Hunter I love BK too ! And oh yea my grandson is Hunter Matthew Brown
Good morning all . . 😊😊💝👍👍💥🌎🌹🌹🌹🌹 hay Hunter how are you doing today buddy. Hope your having a great day. It's kinda cloudy here today . And it was raining yesterday. 😊😊😊💥🌎💝👍
Mike that Kubota sure looks like a very capable and smooth machine but I would bet that your experience and skills would make any brand tractor look good. Have great day and carry on.
my little niece mom is the cheif inspector officer for these kubota products in thailand wich is there kubota coroporation inspection facility were there all inspected and a red sticker goes on and ships to all 500,000 kubota dealers over 350 countries over the world
Mike - Great video as always... Your decision to go with a 6 ft land plane is interesting. It is easy to see how it would be beneficial for road building. The 7 ft plane would be difficult to put a crown on the finished product without having too wide of a road. I have a 4 ft box blade I use with my JD 1025R and it is perfect for road/trail building. I have often thought I would never get rid of it. Speaking of box blades, your land plane seems to be a hybrid with box blade tines and land plane blades .... very nice tool.
Michael from Canada
Mike, you sure do know your way around heavy equipment. Your work is outstanding and by the way, you look really cool in that new tractor too...
On our farm, I have had to put in driveways to end the mess of mud every spring and fall. I just have a skid steer with which I dig down 12", then have 3" traffic bond, then 1" traffic bond delivered. I spread it and we end up with great long-lasting driveways. What I want to share with you is that teeth on the front edge of the bucket make a huge difference in the power needed to dig dirt. They are removable too.
Good Morgan Outdoorgan’s! Another good one Mike. Pete Westmoreland Co.
I have never heard how many acres you have. I love your trail management videos. I have 80 acres north of St. Louis. I love your channel.
Nice looking topsoil..............I wish we had that at our place.
That’s a really good piece of machinery that Kubota tractor and is the ideal thing to have providing you that you don’t have to much acreage to care for.
Very smart work.
Very efficient.
👌🏻👍🏻
Wow somebody gettin a turkey ....rural life is very relaxing only get to experience it when I travel upstate PA for fishing and hunting....
Getting the new off the tires
Thanks for the videos
Hey Mike another great video. Hi to Hunter and the family.
I remember your original video titled the same as this one. Seems like a very nice tractor!
Just subbed to your channel maybe a week or so ago. Nice job on the garden fence. Looking forward to the outbuilding construction. Will you be pouring a pad for it????
I have a BX2360 and as you might guess it is not the tractor your big one is but I love it. I can't do big jobs quickly but I get them done. The only new thing that I have for the tractor is the rear blade. Tractor, snow blower and front blade are all used but works great. Because I live in a city storage is the one thing I have to watch, can't store things outside. Tractor on from west central Illinois
Hey Mike if you haven't figured it out yet, locate your lift lowering speed control knob (should be under seat) and screw it in some so your implement lowers smooth and easy instead of free falling.
I have a Construction Attachments 4 in 1 front bucket that I am able to do the same job with. I got it when I bought the tractor (Kubota 3901) with other implements. I figure it saved me 1 or 2 other pieces of equipment. Further, every make of tractor I looked at the front bucket was a very thin sheet of steel. I just didn’t see them lasting the life of the tractor. For me, the decision was a good one. Love my Kubota. Last comment. I, like many others bought the very usable tractor and immediately wish I had got the next bigger size in the Grand L series.
It beats the old Box-Blade, equipped with DumBells on top of the Screw-Jacks for adjusting the tilt and angle of cut. Way back in 1957, No reply required. Thanks for sharing. Terry&ThePirates
That tractor is breaking you in real sweet. Nice job with the land plane - the bucket looks like it moves pretty smooth. Noticed that when you were putting down the gravel in the Material Reclamation Area[?]. Soother than the RK it seemed. Hey - have a grand day up there.
Scraping the last-pass land plane hump of with the loader kept your wheels level so the land plane didn’t react down in the front wheels going over the hump and up when the back ones did. Nice way to keep the work area level. I kept looking at that ridge between your borrow area and the creek - might be a good idea to move that into your pile anyway, even if just for drainage. I wondered if you really wanted to smooth out the potholes in your sister’s driveway while you were there!
Very impressive!
That was pretty slick
I think you have a good working partner in the Kubota it is doing what you want it to do. If people can't wait or understand not getting back with you then they have the problem. Thank you for sharing your video with us. Hello Hunter. Ed I am in Mercer county at my mom's funeral this weekend I think you live near Z'town but I am not sure of that.
Sorry for your loss
Nice job. 👍
Greetings from Central NH - Nice work doing the combination of land plane and bucket. Looking forward to seeing new puppy arrival - tomorrow's video?
Ya I noticed how smooth and quick that loader is
Great camera angles. I can really see what you are doing.
Good morning Morgans.
Mike you made short work of scraping up some Extra dirt!!👍👊
I call that a box blade here in Montana- best tool ever made for maintaining gravel driveways
I have a very similar tractor; GL5740HSTC, replaced my 2003 GL5030HSTC and I have fluid in my rear tires along with wheel weights and I can easily use only the FEL for dirt work, but more often than not use my HR3584 to break up the ground like you are doing. I agree with Salvator, no need to respond.
Good looking tractor !!!!
I like how wide those front tires are on that MX5400.
Did you have to give back all of you attachments/implements you used with the RK tractors. I noticed you are only using Land Pride. I have a land Pride 96” box blade. It is tough!
Land Pride is now owned by Kubota. I suspect all the LP attachments came with the tractor as part of the "agreement". Everything else still in "inventory" is probably stuff Mike purchased.
Mike the MX5300 is a real farm tractor. It made quick work of that tiny swatch.
Looking good with Orange
Good job!
Happy Puppy Day Morgans!
That kabota does a nice job. Oh and so does mike.
Enjoyed this video
Mike you need to get a hydraulic cylinder and use for your third link, you've got the extra hydraulic hookups right there, easy to do and it will make a world of difference in controlling all your 3pt equipment! 👍I'm going to keep bugging you till you get one.👏 The landplane with the rippers looks like a really great tool, and love the MX5400! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Cool tractor Mike, keep up the good work
Love the new tractor!
Good morning Hunter ;-)
10/10 for mentioning the crown needed on gravel/dirt roads but I still think a rear blade is better. The rear blade is so much better at leaving surplus rolled materials on the centerline of the road & an application of glyphosate at least two weeks prior to the maintenance produces the cleanest cut edges. Land Planes are probably best in fields full of ant hills or gofer mounds but not driveway maintenance, IMO.
The Kubota is a great machine, but it takes an experienced operator to make a machine perform to it's full potential. Nice job Mike!
Nice!
Looking for hats and mugs again. Any idea when you will be getting more in. Have a great weekend with the new pup!
Don't feel bad, Mike. Melissa's channel is being assisted by yours. THAT'S A HUGE ADVANTAGE in a channel startup. Plus, as you've already pointed out, Melissa is WAY easier on the eyes than you are. 😉😂
Very good content. Best in quite awhile.
impressive machine...its obvious why you like the new tractor.
That's a great kitt you got there
Hi mike look at your videos day after day you really deserve the money you and melissa make you are a very hard working man.👍
Good morning 🌞 my friends
I need to get me one of those attachments Ive got a similar job i am working on and just using the loader and backhoe for now though.
That is a good looking tractor, do they do a 4in1 bucket? With a 4in1 you can open the bucket and use it as dozer blade. The important thing to keep in mind when using a FEL on a tractor is to not put side load on it, only push forward. You are so good to your Mum.
The guy makes landscaping look so easy. I have a box blade on my tractor and I still haven't mastered it.
