Adding an attachment is like getting a whole new machine.
Great summation, money verse usefulness and amount of usage is a great way to look at it. Thanks for another great video.
Cheers Kurt!
Beautiful property.
That’s a pretty substantial bunch of attachments- like a kid at Christmas and a little bit spoiled 👍👌😊
I just wanted to say thanks for the great videos I’m in Michigan and just purchased a grand L 4060 cab tractor watching your videos helped my decision a lot.keep the videos coming great content
Thanks again
Gord, Great overview of your attachments and why you chose them. Thank you. It has helped me come at my needs in a different light.
Currently, I have shifted my thought process, thanks to you. I was going with LX2610 ROPS with a backhoe. Now I have decided to shift the funds to LX2610 CAB and not get the backhoe for now. Loader & Grapple are a must. Sitting patiently on the Kubota waiting list. 😆
Thank you... Love your very well done videos!
Congrats on the new tractor Daniel. You will be very happy having the cab - ac and heat which both work excellent - keeps the bugs off you in the forest and in the winter shelters you from the cold winds and temps. The back hoe would be great in the future and/or you can simply rent an excavator for a day or two when you have a few projects lined up. Cheers!
Don’t forget GP with the success of your channel and expanding subscriptions the need for fresh content is never ending! I personally enjoy your reviews of various equipment and accessories!
Great point Stephen! Thanks for your support!
Very helpful video. Great job. Thanks.
Good info! Always good to have the tools to make your life easier!
gm 3 am here love the opening
Morning Frankie!
Greetings from Wisconsin! Hello my friend, long time no speak. I would just like to chime in and say after my 4yrs of owning my L2501, the most surprising attachment i own is my 72" finish mower. I am still amazed every time I use it the cut I get, and the reduced clumping compared to a side discharge. I still gotta buy my pallet forks. SOOOOOO many uses. I really just wanted to say howdy, and glad you're doing well. God bless.
We know if you go to the attachment store and purchased what you wanted, Carol would definitely keep you in the city and not let you play in the woods
LOL! Yup...:))
Thanks for another educational video. I do value your lessons learned. Take care
Thanks TC!
Nice video Gord. It's all about the property. Very wise advice.
Very sensible
i just ordered a JD 1025r with a backhoe, wood chipper, and front snowblower. Can't wait to dump some money on more going forward. lol
Hey congratulations Adam! That's great - yup, it's just the beginning...:)) All the best to you!
Great informational video, thks for sharing!
Great video Gord and good advice thanks for sharing take care
GP as always an excellent video. Got the wheels spinning again, this one or that. I think I'll stay with the thought of a 3Pt snowblower so I can use the loader. Hoping to meet up some day on one of our trips south. Take care and stay warm. 👍🏝🍻🔥
Great Video GP- Thank You
GP. Thanks for the walk through of all your implements. I have been very selective as well and I try to remember that there are places to rent implements for a once a year type of usage. For example, I could go buy a garden tiller for around 2k, or I can rent one once a year for $60 from from the local hardware store.
Every tractor owner will have a different set of implements for their own needs. Thanks for the great videos.
Excellent video as always!!!!
Rear blade is the perfect compliment to the front snowblower, it’s my go to set up on my BX in the winter
Great information as always. Really like your thoughtful reviews of the equipment. Thanks.
Thanks so much George!
That's a long list of great implements! I would love a grapple!
Good info. Thanks GP!
Interresting video with a lot of useful information. 👌
Thank you!
Agree totally with your opinion on the backhoe as on a small tractor they are limited in what they do although still streets ahead of a spade lol. Hiring an excavator when needed is a much more prudent and practical option
Great video. I agreed on the splitter and your thought process on attachments. We all want to buy more toys but the trouble is you do have to consider how often you will use it.
Thank you so much!! I am applying the business case logic to all purchases now. Just ordered a grapple and 3rd function option for my b2601. I love the forks! I use those more than anything.
Great video. I’m considering buying a 2610 with cab today, this video came right on time
Excellent video explained well
good advice as always sir
Good morning Gord. This was a great video, really helpful to see before the first time buyer walks into a tractor showroom ! Great information before buying something that will just set around. You have a great setup and have worked with your business/budget quite well and have learned to incorporate marketing into your plans. We sure wish you continued success in all of your dealings. Keep up the good work and videos, we really enjoy watching your videos. Fred. 🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👋👋
Good morning and thanks very much Fred! Wish you all the best!
GP this was one of your best. It was informative and so helpful. Your honesty and real life perspective is very much appreciated. Happy holidays and keep'em coming.
Thanks kindly Rick! All the best!
Great video and lots of great info. Anyone looking to get attachments, this is a must watch!
Thanks Kev!
Great video. Well articulated as usual.
Awesome overview of your implements as well as the reasoning behind the ones chosen GP. But you’re right once you buy one... you want to buy them ALL. the Missus always says I can have anything I want but I can’t have EVERYTHING I want !! LOL.
LOL! Ok, now that's a little sneaky..:) Didn't they call that a play on words, back in school? She knows her stuff - LOL Cheers T!
Very informative video...👍
Excellent advice, GP. 100% agree with all your comments. Cheers!
Thanks Michael!
Great info Gordon, and well presented as always. Hard to argue with any of your logic!
Good morning Chris!
GP thank you for the shared knowledge. Flag in the background is always is always impressive. Work safe.
Thanks Gary! Have a great week!
Hi GP,
Very Interesting description of your thoughts and purchasing process. Over the years, following various implement reviews you have done, I was able to choose the equipment that suited my needs. Thanks for the time you spend on making these videos, very helpful!
Conrad
Thanks Conrad!
You know your needs not your wants. great video
I really enjoy your pleasant wisdom! Thank you for making these recordings!! We just ordered the LX2610, with the cab, LED lights, bucket & loader, pallet forks, rotory tiller, & front snowblower for our property. I researched for quite a while trying to decide which machine would fit our needs the best, & this is where I landed. Thanks again, & have a very Merry Christmas! 🙂
Thanks! Very helpful.
Great video on what to consider when looking at implements. I have a similar process that I go through when deciding on whether or not to purchase an implement. Thank you for your thoughtful commentary.
You're welcome Andy! Have a good one!
Good information GP. Want and need can be two different things based on some common sense sometimes. Always appreciate you sharing your experiences and knowledge. Have a great week!
Morning and thanks Doug! Yup it's hard to say no sometimes. LOL. You too !
My thought on the 3pt splitter was it was putting more hours on my expensive tractor instead of a small engine that is much easier to replace. Great video!
Great point Ranger! Have a good one!
I rather just maintain one motor and the diesel starts every time.
ranger6x6-
yeah kubota tractors are cost less and cheaper then deeres and newhollands and kubota engines are the cheapest and so easy to work on wich why love kubota
Hi GP I remember when you was new tractor owner getting some tips and now you giving out some of your own tips for new tractor owner 👍🚜🚜🚜
Thanks Richard! I've been pretty fortunate with all you good folks on the channel. Cheers!
Exactly one top Jaw is all one needs that what I have and works wonderful.
Wow GP just another fantastic video. I learned so much from you over the last couple of years. As you know I purchased my b2650 in November. By listening to you was great advise . Keep up the great work. Cheers. ☕️
Thanks Sam. Hope you are enjoying the B2650! Have a good weekend!
Love the turtle in the beginning and ending in this video. We have the same here on our property. You are so right about buying the piece of equipment for your property and the cost/value, etc. For me, the grapple is the best piece of equipment to own, along with the snow blower and rear blade. The fact that we can also mow with the machine opens up many opportunities to improve our land. We are so very lucky to own a tractor with the attachments.
Good morning Jean! She surprised me when I walked around the back of the tractor - happy I saw her before I started it up to drive away.:)) Always good to do a circle check before I begin using it.:)) Have a wonderful weekend!
Good words of wisdom
Great rationale.
Hey GP, your channel and 1 or 2 others seriously helped me in making my choice of the tractor
model and implements I needed. Along with my B2601 I bought a box blade, root rake, and bush hog.Upfront there's the bucket and much loved grapple.
Sounds like you are setup nicely! Happy it has helped you a bit - all the best!
Good info
Hey GP! First off, I’d like to congratulate you on an amazing Channel! I’ve been watching for over 2 years now. You were my main resource when looking into purchasing a tractor when I moved from the city to my new 34 acre property in the Laurentians in Quebec. Thanks to your information packed videos I chose the LX2610 just like you and took delivery of it in Dec. 2020! With the tractor, my initial implements were the loader with bucket, a grapple, a box blade as well as a rear facing snow blower. Since then I added pallet forks and a chipper. The only implement that I regretted buying was the Box Blade…. I have approximately 2km of roads around my property that need to be graded several times a year…. I find that the box blade digs in too much and doesn’t level the roads nicely enough. Regarding moving large quantities of materials over long distances, I would rather move the material with my bucket and then go over it with the land plane a few times for a more manicured finish. Having said all of that, I also realized that the LX2610 didn’t quite have the lift capacity that I would have liked for the chores that I had…. When splitting wood, I like to use IBC totes to stack the wood. Unfortunately a full IBC tote of freshly split would is just too heavy for the LX2610. Therefore about a month ago I took delivery of my new MX5400!!! Woohoo!! What a machine! I obviously needed to purchase several of the same attachments that I had for the LX2610 for the MX5400…. Such as the snowblower, the loader & bucket and a larger heavy duty grapple…. When it came to the box blade, I opted for the Land Plane this time…. Unfortunately the grapple and box blade are on back-order until October, but I’m anxiously awaiting their delivery…. Oh! I also ordered a quick-attach implement for the 3 point hitch. Definitely a must for anyone that has more than 1 rear implement in their arsenal. Thanks again for all of your hard work in making new tractor owners better informed and their decisions much easier!!!
I bought a rotary mower for mowing fields, box blade, pallet forks, boom pole, and grapple over the last two years. The grapple is my go to implement that I use the most. Wow, it is amazing how useful it has become. I would love to add a land plane and landscape rake and scrape blade to the stable, but it just takes time to save up for those.
Great video for the new tractor owners out there. I was also deciding between the box blade and the land plane. I bought the box blade and have used it more than I ever would have used the plane. I have used the box blade to dig drainage trenches, move snow and spread a load of mushroom soil over my garden. I also have a three point splitter (home built) that I am converting to a stand alone splitter so I don't have to tie up a tractor on it. 👍👍👍
Good stuff! Good luck converting the splitter - that will make for a good project. Cheers!
awesome video, thanks GP
Thanks Yves!
Hi Gord! First, I loved the turtle intro and ending scenes. Mama turtle just laid her eggs, I assume. You made great arguments for why you have the implements you have and why you don’t have some other implements. I completely agree with you about box blade over land plane. The box blade is much more versatile overall. I don’t have a grapple yet but may still spring for one. I love my backhoe and use the heck out of it so, it has been a good investment in my case. Quick Attach pallet forks are a must! I use mine all the time. Thanks for another great video! Cheers!
Good morning Martin. LOL. I think I interrupted her before she started ( which is good - she was in my driveway and it is an offense to kill turtles or their eggs here. I would have had to rope off the area of the driveway until they hatched- seriously). Yes, for sure - you do a lot of work with that BH so great value for you and worth it. Thanks my friend- have a great week Martin!
@@GPOutdoors Rope off your own driveway??? Wow! Glad you discouraged her just in time! Hope you have a great week too!
Procurement background always serves ;-)
Excellent overview GP.. I went the opposite direction and got a land plane instead of a box blade because my property doesn't have a need to move a lot of material long distances. I need to be able to mainly rework bare patches in my yard around the pond. so you are spot on when you say it depends on your needs. and yes I would like to be able to have them all. lol cheers
Morning Roy. Thanks for sharing - great example for folks to consider. Have a great weekend!
Got a backhoe just like a hammer at hand, you will see a lot of nail to reckon with !
thanks
hi, very useful video..and me where i live everyone is doing vegetable gardens so i am considering buying a tiller and maybe making some money..thanks!
Great advice...the L3901 came with a ballast box, I bought a grapple and my neighbor gave me a set of forks this past weekend... Great to have good neighbors as you know....cheers
Nice Mike! Cheers!
You've got a great neighbor! 👍
This was a very good video.
This is great!! I have been looking at buying a tractor for two years now and am about to bite the bullet. I was going to email you regarding your set up and poof! Here it is all laid out nice and neat for me. I just won't need the snow blower. Thanks, I think it is serendipity.
LOL! Good morning and best of luck Lawrence! I am happy if it helped a bit.
For a less expensive hydraulic log skidder, check out norwood sawmills. Excellent product, light rope, not chains, safer to use.
Thanks, GP for the insider view. As a new tractor owner, I have been resisting getting the backhoe as I think I should probably just rent one as well. I have quite a few projects that need a lot of digging. Electrical lines, water lines for the new 40x60 shop, a bridge over a water easement that will allow me to get from the front half of my property to the back half, just to name a few.
yes, rent over purchase for home projects. Mini ex's are way easier to dig with anyway. You get better weekly rental rates and it makes more sense to knock out all your digging projects at once while you have the mess.
GP, firstly, what a great and informative video for the community. Good thoughts and thought processes. Secondly, it made me realize how long I’ve been watching your channel. I kept thinking, man this guys got a lot of attachments. Again, as you said, over the years they were well thought out and justified. You might want to re-think the size of your future garage… just say’in. Smile. Keep up the good work my friend.
Good morning Paul. LOL. Great point about the garage...yup, it will need to be bigger than I thought, and will be a while coming now with the shortage and prices. Hope you are keeping well!
Hi Gord, great stuff again ! In watching your video, in particular on your snowblower and feeling I owe you a tip back, I want to offer the following: I noticed your snowblower chute is quiet rusty. On itself nothing is wrong with that. But in my experience and with more and more wet heavy snow we receive (in Quebec at least) it accumulates and obstructs the chute. So a new coat of paint is the remedy to that. I hope you and possibly your subscribers find it useful.
Cheers Phil
Morning Phil and thanks! I have some paint here so may take a closer look at it over the summer. Thanks again for sharing the great tip! All the best!
Great video, GP!
Thanks!
Thanks 😊‼️
Nice Job Gord
Cheers Jason!
GP, interesting and thanks for your educational opinion. Hey, how about a pto generator review?
With the world as it is, I enjoy a cup of coffee with you brother. Always good comments from brothers and sisters. Thanks for taking the time. First person I ever subscribe or followed👍👍. Anyways big question if anyone has answer. I have bx23s. Skid loader, can’t make it make sense, and I have tried! Thinking lx. The question is with the 33 will it not wind so much? And will it go faster to my neighbors house? … for coffee and what not. Thanks for the videos
Hi Gord, I would like to put out a word of caution to folks, perhaps it has been mentioned but I haven't seen it. I own a LX2610 and keep it stored in a garage. As I'm sure most people know with the ROPS up it will not go in a 7' garage door so I have to fold it down when I put it away. The other day I started the tractor to take it out and raised the 3 point as I had the box blade on and had lowered it to the floor when I put it away. I mistakenly raised it to high and the top link pressed against the folded ROPS and bent it. I was able to straighten it but just to forewarn people to be cautious when raising the 3 point with the ROPS folded.
Good morning Edward. Thanks for the very helpful comment for folks - sorry about your experience but happy you were able to straighten it. Good caution for people - I am sure you have found that there is a middle hole on the ROPs bracket that allows the ROPs to be lowered to just below the middle, so it will rest up above the 3 point. Good luck and thanks again for sharing!
Always informative! Hey, wanted to let you know my LA435 loader busted on my B2601. $3,500 damage covered by KTAC Insurance.
Hey good evening Paul. Sorry to hear that? Can I ask what happened?
I agree with everything you have said on this video and I run my ship the same way. I hemmed and hawed over one implement which I didn’t think I would use very much boy was I wrong.i sell fire wood and always load with by bucket until I got a fire wood bucket.i get a full bucket load now and I can sift much of the debris out without losing the load . You can use it in garden for digging rocks and clawing out roots and leave all the dirt behind.
Good stuff Daniel. I have seen them on other channels and they look like the right tool for the job. Thanks for sharing the info for folks!
Great video gord
Great information Gord. I like your "Business Plan" thinking. I think that way as well. I do small dirt work jobs for hire. If I see an implement that could make me money, I purchase. Currently looking at a used DR brand wood chipper. I have never had a customer ask for chipping service....but if I have it, maybe I can add that to my list of services. Currently have a Kubota B2620. Loader, backhoe, box scraper, brush hog, back blade, self-made carry all, tooth bar, trailer mover, and self designed sod-cutter. Keep the videos coming! Russ. Liupakka Dirt Work, Esko, Minnesota.
Good stuff Russ! I think you are right. Lots of folks with brush that would prefer chips for their gardens etc. Good luck and all the best!
Great commentary on attachments that you do have and you don't have and why. When we do get a newer tractor, I wouldn't be getting a backhoe as we have a neighbor who is very reasonable fees for his huge construction tractor. It would take 15 or 20 years to pay for no more than we would use one. I would suggest that you look into a company called ABI and look at everything they have for for gravel driveways. They even have some tools that combine the use of a box blade, a power rake, a land plane and even a landscaping rake in one tool. We just got the smaller one of these implements that even mounts on the back of a lawn garden tractor or zero turn radius mower. They do a really good job on redoing your driveway and building crowns. They even make a larger one that is made for three-point hitch on a compact or subcompact tractor.
Good morning and thanks Jim. I will take a look. All the best!
For the case of the skidding winch, I am sure that between all of the people that you harvest trees for firewood, that splitting the cost among them would be a much easier 'business case' to make even though it is only used in one season of the year.
I totally agree GP, the box blade is my choice. Even though I have never used a land plane. I aim to get me a grapple, as they are very useful.
Morning Dean!
Good morning
GP, once again,, good informative video !! Speakin of attachments, do you have a fishin rod 'n reel to go with that boat !!!! Lol Good stuff GP , Stay Healthy!
LOL! I do. :))
Want vs need is an argument i have with myself all the time. Sometimes the boss of 31 years gets involved
LOL!
Very nice summary on all your attachments, thanks for putting it together. Hopefully some day I will get a 2610. Oh, you never mentioned the name of your turtle!
Morning David! LOL.
Ok Gord...so...I almost gave you a thumbs down because of what you said about the backhoe attachment. While you may feel that there is little use on YOUR property there is certainly a lot of need for a backhoe on MY property. Not sure how far you are from Haliburton Lake but you are always welcome especially if you need to justify the purchase!
Be warned however, my neighbor just bought a mini excavator so you should act quick! 😂😂😂
Another informative video Gord...thanks!
Best regards, and keep up the great work.
Carla told me not to get any big (tractor) ideas so I only got a small idea and bought an ATV...tractor next.
😀
LOL! Heyyyyy no thumbs down mister! LOL. I'll tell Carla on you. :)) Have a great week Dan!
G P you are so right tractors are expensive and attachments are in the long run cost a lot as you say if no money pit get what fits your budget as novice we have things should not have purchased and the storage has cost to protect you investment thank you
God Bless All
PaK
How's she goin'? Well Gord I whole heartily agree with the philosophy you use to control your tractor addiction!!! LOL We can all want one of everything like you say, but we really only need this one or that one. It's good to do your homework like to describe, before we go to the 'candy' store with our check books!!! Congrats on 50K. Thanks for posting and take care!!!
LOL! It hard to curb that sweet tooth sometimes Grampie! Hope you folks are keeping well. Deer flies starting showing up this week - so I have both flies going at me now for a while! Cheers!
@@GPOutdoors Our black flies are vicious right now. I hope it's their last gasp and they will soon be gone!!!
A well thought out discussion of why you bought what you did, and why you didn't buy what you didn't. I've kinda wondered if something close to a Norwood Skid-Winch wouldn't be close to something usable for you and the fellas for skidding timber. Not heartbreaking expensive, still handy getting the wood out. Doesn't need an enormous horsepower number either. CZcams doesn't seem to have much on it though, perhaps a smaller capstan winch isn't as useful as they might appear at first glance. In any case, congrats on 50(.4!)k subscribers!
Hey good morning and thanks P! I haven't seen much on them either so am not too familiar. Thanks again and great hearing from you!
land plane is a one trick pony, although it does the one trick well.
where as a box blade is a jack of all trades but a master of none IMO
that why and how I ended up with both
Great presentation on all the equipment you have ! What is the make of the wood splitter you have?
Thanks
Eastonmade. Awesome quality commercial splitters. Cheers!
Thx for your videos which I follow with great interest. I live in the Laurentians and we get a ton of snow … 4 meters last year. My road is 500 m with a fairly steep hill. Have you encountered any issues climbing hills with the tractor in winter (obviously I would need chains). Thx vm in advance
I have the same thought process for everything around my property, tools and equipment, in my case i have a rear snowblower and a front snow pusher, because I have a rather small driveway (7 cars), but it's configuration is not linear, plus I have 2 specific places where I can blow the snow, so my choice was obvious, I agree on almost all your choices but the wood chipper, I would go on a different route, a standalone wood chipper would made more sense for me, because they are cheaper (I wonder why) plus they don't put hours on your tractor, I have a backhoe, because of all the digging I am doing, plus stump removal, and I don't need ballast, my pallet forks were the first implement I knew I absolutely needed...Having a small property I chose a BX24D as the tractor, it can go anywhere, this summer I made the best decision by converting it to a SSQA quick attach in the front, that is a game changer, a standard skid steer quick attach changes my tractor to the most versatile tool I have. Thanks for the video.
Good morning Tony. Excellent point about the chipper. It sounds like you have the BX dialled in. My brother has one and loves it. Thanks for sharing your setup with us!
Good points Gord, always thinking practically. I have a brush hog for the 5 acre meadow work I have to do 3-4 times a year. The rear pto snow blower got used a number off times this last winter( with a lot of back and neck strain) the dealer thinks I can do better with a front snow pusher along with my current blower..rather than buying a rear inverted front driving blower, very pricy.. I am going to defer the purchase of my box blade until next spring as we just got the driveway redone today...looks good. My next implement and I should order it in a few weeks, is the root grapple...I am thinking the land pride one over the HLA as it is lighter and I will have more lifting power..I know it’s more money..but I want to use the power of the tractor as much as I can when I really need it. Also, thinking similar lines about the chipper, it’s good for clean up. And like you, I have a stand alone wood splitter, by Champion, we got at Costco on sale. Be well and thanks for the video, cheers!
Morning Sunjay! It sounds like you are getting more comfortable with the tractor and you have given some good thought to the implements for your property up there. Nice! Let me know how you like your new grapple after you get some time to use it. Take care!
