    Tractor!

    Mrs Inor and I have been talking about this since before we started building M.T. Acres, so today we finally went out and ordered a tractor. It will be delivered on Thursday or Friday!

    We went with this bad boy:

    https://lstractorusa.com/products/co.../mt235he-35hp/

    It comes with the front-end loader. So for implements, we got a brush hog, a box grader and a hay spear. So by this weekend, I will be farting through silk!

    Of course, I will post pictures when it gets here.

    I have seen the brand locally at a small dealer in the town my wife works. Don't know anything about them though but it will be good to hear what you think of the unit as you get some use out of it.

    They are the old Ford-New Holland brand. It has a 6 year warranty, so that says something (I hope).

    Thanks that good to know. There are a lot of new brands of tractors on the market now. I don't know where I would start if I decided to buy another. Hopefully I will never have to. We bought a John Deere in 2006 and one of the big reasons was access to the dealer at the time.

    Wow Inor, that is really nice. We could have used that up here over the last couple years with all the projects, especially the rock work. Now that you have your place pretty well built you can start on the ground projects! Gonna dig in a swimming pool for Mrs. Inor?

    I have never even driven a tractor before. So in doing my research, the statement that kept coming up again and again was: "A good dealer is more important than the brand". We really like the dealer we bought this one from. There is a John Deere dealer about the same distance away, but that guy just did not impress me much.

    I'll let you know more once I have had some time to figure the damn thing out.
