    TractorData says it’s a Yanmar engine. I wonder why they abandoned the JD PowerTech engines? Couldn’t have anything to do with the dirty cold starts right? (They ran great, once they warmed up. You did not want them running in a shop or garage while cold! ) Likely a Kansaki trans unless they’ve parted with tradition there. Last I knew they were assembling 3, 4, 5 series in Augusta GA but it’s been awhile and I’ve slept since then so who knows?

    Oh wow... took a closer look at the photo, full JD cab and the self-leveling loader..... :yes:

    Large frames were my favorite size compact tractors!

    Was that just bringing in the groceries or you headed for a short outing?

    BTW you'll have to keep it now, you messed up the stickers. :picard:

    If that's not a reason to buy a tractor, I don't know what is. Forget stump removal....beer & BBQ assistant is where it's at!

    I think I love this tractor:). Where did you get the weld on hooks? I think it’s time I pick some up.

    Thanks. Not much of a commute for you to pick yours up then:). I have to go to the Deere dealer this weekend. It’s about an hour away so figure I will pick a couple up if they have them. I would get you to ship them the boarder makes for an expensive hook:)
