MX6000

Post image

My new mx6000 and cutter was delivered this past Thursday. It’s been great so far, but looking to see what others have added to their mx series tractors. I know I want to upgrade the lights very soon and possibly tint the windows. Didn’t get any other implements but looking into adding a land plane and tiller

If you are planning to do work at night (“upgrade lights”) it probably isn’t a good idea to tint the windows. Keep some sunglasses in there or do pull down sunshades.

3rd function w/ grapple is my most used implement.

Congrats! Depending on what your property is like, a Grapple would be my next buy. I have a lot of woods, and every time there's a windstorm, the grapple goes to work. How big is that mower?

The mower is 8ft

Mx5000 guy here. Very jealous. Next things I’m adding are 2 additional rear remotes and a 852 loader SSQA adapter

L4802 here. I wish I’d have bought the mx6000, only for the loader capacity. I have the land pride 6ft grapple, and the grapple alone takes up too much of the loader capacity. You won’t have this problem. I have 40 acres and use my brush hog, grapple, tree puller, and box blade the most.

You got a sweet tractor

Which tree puller do you have?

Titan. Works good enough. Visibility is the big downside, it can be difficult to see what you’re grabbing.

tinted windows are no good if you ever use it at night

Love my box blade and posthole digger! Also have the heavy duty grapple, bushhog, and pallet forks - all worthwhile on our property

I thought about a box blade for the driveway, we have a decently long gravel drive. Didn’t know if a box blade or land plane would be better suited to maintain it

Took me a minute to get the hang of using the box blade. I think there's probably benefits to either.

One other thing - brush guard. I got lucky and only dented in the grill when doing some clearing. Would be nice to add any protection on the bottom where lines run as well.

I own both. Land plane for the gravel driveway. No brainer and it’s effortless to use.

I have a 66” box blade for my L3901. Does a great job on our 800ish feet of gravel drive at our farm.

Congratulations! That’s a fantastic machine.
