    Ya! There not cheap. But I would rather use the kubota than a truck. Hard to justify a new 60K truck to beat up.

    Afternoon All

    Earlier I was at Fleet Farm. Got some ammo and I was looking at the safety harness for bow hunting. I heard the sales guy telling a customer that he cant be behind the gun counter. The customer started telling the salesman he could do whatever he wanted. There were a few other words exchanged The salesman kept his cool and just said that he is not allowed behind the counter and how may I help you. I walked over and said to the salesman, " You should of thrown his ass out of here". He just gave a nice smile. The customer told me mind my own business. I walked away.
    Went home and gave Coco a bath.

    Work off Kubota 0% finance. I bought seven pieces of equipment this way from them. My oldest is a 1996 M4800 and have not had any issues with Kubota.

    Oh hell, first one to study for the test and ace it, showoff :thumbsup: Welcome!

    Why I have Dillon 650, and quite a few other loaders.

    [​IMG]

    OK so I might have gone with blue, Dillon Precision, in part because of the marketing and calendars.

    [​IMG]

    And now I have a hankering for a Sidelock Side X Side hammer gun. I don't own one of those. Yet, but was looking last night at them. Still have RCBS green for rifle and a bunch of red MEC for the shotguns. But pistol rounds go through the blue press.

    Club that got flooded couple of months ago finally opened last night for sporting clays. Place was tore up pretty bad and most of it was under 5-6 feet of water. Another guy on my squad was also shooting a Winchester 23 28" 20 ga.

    2 Winchester 23s.jpg

    Subie couldn't start to go places I take the Northstar. Or a jeep or FJ for that matter. First do a needs analysis of what you need. Wants like cab, heat and even AC help too :thumbsup:

    Ride quality can only be done in person, test drive in terrain that you will use it in. And ease of access, etc. Could hardly get my butt in and out of the new Yamaha Wolverine. And was cramped when it it. The Honda fit and finish was horrible, had to see it in person to believe it.

    They are really work horses, I agree. And have a lot of attachments others don't. Bit slow on roads but if using it as a work horse then a non issue :thumbsup:

    Polaris even sells an ice house attachment for the Ranger

    [​IMG]

    But is expensive for the size, would prefer a larger one. An Ice Castle Fish House would be my preference

    [​IMG]

    One of the Ice Castle dealers slogan near here is "Tell her it was on sale!"

    Listen to Martin is my recommendation. And what I did. He knows things...

    John Deere UTV's aren't quite up to speed compared to what they used to be much to my surprise when I started looking. If they were I might have gone with the John Deere AC UTV instead of the Polaris Northstar. But there were a LOT of complaints about them on the John Deere UTV forums.

    Again great advice. Friend of mine that lives in a small town of a couple hundred people on the North Shore of Lake Superior went with a Honda 50" UTV couple of months before I got mine. He drove more than a thousand miles round trip to get it in SD. And his nearest service place is a 200 mile round trip. He hates the ride and hates the drive to get it serviced, already talking about selling it or trading for a Polaris.

    I was near his place when my first service was due. I drove the buggy into town to the gas station which is an authorized service center for Polaris, they had Polaris oil and air filters behind the counter. Walked across the street to the town dinner and looking out the window saw more UTV's than cars and trucks drive by. Most all Polaris but a few Can-Am UTV's. Likely Canadians LOL.

    I'd stay away from those Chinese knockoffs altogether. They are a total POS compared to the main name brands. At least from those that I have talked to that owned them.

    Good luck and hope all goes well for you.

    Andy this guy has about a 80% average on predicting earthquakes , he also predicted the July 4th and 5th major earthquakes here in Socal

    Skip to 15:10 into the video where he's got a warning for 5.5 or larger earthquake to hit Socal by tomorrow again in the Searles Valley area
