    I originally bought it to pack a bunker silo and handle round bales, but after we sold the dairy cattle, I spend most hours clearing and maintaining fence rows. I push a lot of brush and handle a lot of logs now.
    Grapple would be really nice right about now.
    Maybe CG would trade me for his Deere...
    :whistle:

    It's one of a handful that are actually appreciating in value for low-hour well maintained examples.

    Lol! It really isn't any bigger than FarmHand78's new toy. Just setup to go play in the dirt.

    That ones got a lot of hours. But I can have a complete overhaul done for less then half of a new one.:loco: :crazy:

    The ones that I ran as a kid had 9000+ hours on them. And that was 14 years ago. They are still farming.

    They were the best selling rowcrop tractor of there time for a reason.
    Mine has a little over 9000. Had the head done last fall & new injectors. Fingers crossed for another 9000.
