I did remove the factory bed, and had a flat bed installed. Also removed the wheels and tires, and went with a simple 17" wheel with 33" Toyo m/t tires. Didn't take you long to oil field that truck up....Come on man... Really? lol

I'm definitely going to look at investing in one of those front grapples like you bought Don. I've always wanted one, just didn't need it. Now at the new place I will get a lot of use out of one.

Now at the new place I will get a lot of use out of one. I use that attachment constantlyUse it like a hand with fingers to sort through a pile of logs to grab just the one you want.Grab a big one ton rock and then place it just where you want toI wish I would have purchased a 60" instead of the 72" for the 4720 tractor. That thing is so heavy it takes up some of the lift out of the 400CX loader. I'd get a 72" one for a 5000-6000 series tractor, go to a 60" for tractors of my size. I have the horsepower (66) but not the weight of a 5 series unitBTW, that MX-6 is weak. The gearbox or bearing mount or something mounts to the inside layer of steel. Mine tore out of that inner piece! Nice 360 degree crack. That's why I went with the land pride. I plan to weld up the inside of mine, then sell it off the property

That MX-6 should be fine for the little bit of mowing it will do. Mostly just grass around fence lines. I save the thick work for my batwing. It's land pride, and the heaviest model they make. It'll take down small trees with ease.
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
Those things are silly, there a couple of kids at church that walk around with them constantly. My kids asked for one and I told them that if they have too much energy I'll find something productive for them to do.

For some kids those toys are part of a mental health treatment for OCD prescribed by a psychologist. In certain instances they have their place & trust me if you have a child with true OCD issues you will try anything to help them.
Maybe a Prius?

Tate, he traded it on a square body pro-street truck which has since been traded off too....

Would still have more power than a ford...
