The country star drove a Kubota tractor to Caesars Palace

Country star Blake Shelton used a piece of farm equipment to signal he’s not quite finished with his residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

A post on his Instagram account shows Shelton driving down the Vegas strip in an open station Kubota L3970 Premium waving to fans, announcing more dates to his residency, and asking some people what they think of his tractor.

When he arrives at Caesars Palace, Shelton flips the keys to a valet and asks him to go easy on the paint.

Another post shows the tractor in front of The Colosseum Theater at Caesars Palace with the caption, “just what @caesarspalace needed…”

The L3970 is part of Kubota’s compact tractor Grand L70 lineup.

The tractor Shelton drove in Las Vegas has 39 horsepower and 30.9 power take-off horsepower. The L3970 is also available with a cab.

It has a 540 rpm rear PTO and a 2,300 rpm mid PTO to support multiple attachments and implements like mowers, snowblowers, and loaders like the LA1056.

The machine also has Kubota’s intelligent hydrostatic transmission (iHST).

This includes allowing operators to adjust pedal sensitivity, and Stall Guard.

Stall Guard senses engine strain and automatically adjusts the transmission to prevent engine stall while working with heavy loads or thick brush.

Kubota tractors have a special place in Shelton’s life.

His father, Dick, sold Kubota tractors until his passing.

A past post on Shelton’s Instagram account shows a photo of a Kubota M7-172 he purchased from his dad.

Shelton has had a partnership and endorsement deal with Kubota since his “Back to the Honky Tonk” tour in 2023.

Lyrics:

My days begin with workin’, Alarm’s at 5 o’clock,
I Fill 5 gallon buckets, The feeders and the troughs,
This five to nine ain’t workin’, why the heck do I work so hard?,
I can’t worry ‘bout health problems, I can sleep in when I’m gone,

One, here comes the two to the three to the four,
Tell em’ ‘buy another cow, we need plenty more’,
Blue jeans are gettin’ dirty, what else could I ask for,
Oh my, more chores

Someone pour me up another shot of sweet tea,
They know me and working hard’s got a history,
There’s another flock of sheep that still needs feed,
Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,

Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,
Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,

I’ve been working pretty stressed but,
I ain’t changing for some cash,
Lord knows that I’m very blessed (More chores),
But I gotta say it’s hard,
Workin’ outside gettin’ charred,
Living out here on the farm, (more chores)

One, here comes the two to the three to the four,
Tell em’ ‘buy another cow, we need plenty more’,
Blue jeans are gettin’ dirty, what else could I ask for,
Oh my, more chores

Someone pour me up another shot of sweet tea,
They know me and working hard’s got a history
There’s another 20 chickens that still need feed,
Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,

Everybody on the farm getting’ busy,
Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,

Fun, here on ranch that’s what you can’t ignore,
Might be pretty hard but I love it to its core,
Flannel’s gettin’ dirty, what else could I ask for,
Oh my, more chores (Tell ‘em sing with me)

Someone pour me up another shot of sweet tea,
They know me and working hard’s got a history,
There’s another flock of sheep that still needs feed,
Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,
Someone pour me up another shot of sweet tea,
They know me and working hard’s got a history,
Watching cattle in the dark, don’t miss me,
Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,
(Yeeeeeehaw)
Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,
Everybody on the farm gettin’ busy,
It’s the best bro, go get yourself a farm
