OK, DM convinced me I needed to come back from my break and post on the tractor forum so here it is.

I love my tractor after my first season. It has made the difference for me to move projecs forward around here. Plus it comes in handy for all kinds of things I haven't though about - getting heavy stuff out of the truck (like my new free waterbed!), pulling up t-posts, hauling and hauling and hauling, turning my compost pile, etc. etc. etc. And with all of that I only have 51 hours on the engine!!! I thought I would put many more hours on it than this.

It's starting to rattle a bit more than at first so I think I am going to take it in for a once over since I know squat about mechanics. However I have been easily able to switch implements and work with them.

Next on the list - post hole digger! I know a cheap one will turn up somewhere and I want to put in many more fences for the animals to clear brush.

I sure am glad my wife talked me into getting a cab it is sure nice to go feed hay bales and not sit in the rain and snow. don't have to eat dust in the summer when plowing . What are they going to think of next.
