Played with my new tractor today. Well, the ranches new tractor. M4800, 48hp Kubota. This is our arena workover and posthole drilling tractor.

We also have a M125x 4wd Kubota, a John Deere 4320, a Case 930, Case skidsteer 1865c (Cummins powered ), Kubota 23hp 4wd, and a Kubota 6' diesel zero turn mower.

Some might consider mine a toy but it does a good job for me and has not let me down yet. It's a Kubota B7610 Hydrostat 4x4 (24 horse) with loader. I have the usual attachments : box blade, grader blade, finish mower, bush hog and then I have some homemade ones that were put on out of necessity. My favorite one is the quick attach forks that I don't even have to get off the tractor to hook up and then there's the boom that attaches to the forks or maybe it would be the homemade sprayer for the 3 point....hmmm, I think I'll go home and play on my tractor. My wife thinks I'm nuts.

Allis Chalmers 6140 with model 450 FEL.
Actually made by Hinomoto (Toyosha) under contract to Allis Chalmers. Pretty sturdy little 43 hp, 3 cyl tractor. Hard to find parts for, and the hydraulic filters will make you cry when you see the price! Only available from the dealer (if you can find an Agco-Allis dealer), and they are $55 each! That is the hydraulic pump suction (spin on) and the return (element style).
Just sold our Ferguson TO-20/30 (don't ask, cobbled together nightmare!)
We will be looking for a larger one next year. I like the McCormicks and the Century/Branson lines (Cummins engine ni 52 hp).

My ranch tractor is a 2150 John Deere 50 hp about 86 model. Good machine. My old backhoe is a 1975 Ford. Still a good farm backhoe. Yep, it is fun to fool with equipment, and the jobs it can do for you.
