I have a 15kv PTO generator. I also heat my house with diesel. I always have around 500 gallons of diesel on hand. So same as you it was a no brainier. You might want to step up to at least a 15kv (15000 watt). It takes about 2.5 PTO hp per 1000 watts and your tractor would handle a 15kv fine. The big draw back to a PTO generator is when the power goes out you have to get it out and get everything hooked up. Not fun in the rain, snow or the middle of the night. I have my house all wired properly for it. During the winter I keep the generator hooked to one of my tractors. I have gas and diesel tractors. If you only have a diesel tractor and it won't start when it is cold without a block heater and it was not plugged in when the power went out you are kind of dead in the water. Have a back up plan. I can run the pto generator with my gas tractor and also have a small gas generator if I need to run the block heater on my diesel tractor.

Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
