My new M5040 with FEL, CDI 63" Grapple, Rhino 272 Cutter and Bush Hog MBX720 will be delivered tomorrow morning.

Thanks to everyone for all the help!

I'm very jealous, that's a great machine. We will expect to see lots of pictures tomorrow.

I will take lots of pictures that is for sure! Then I will take some this weekend while it is in action.

I sure hope it does everything I want and more. I think a L4400 would have done the trick, so I went to the M5040 to cover myself.

Heck if the M6040 offered more lift capacity I might have bought it.

Congratulations! Sounds like an awesome setup. How much for the 4wd M5040 and FEL? Which tires did you get, and which shuttle? Looking forward to seeing pics of that beast!

You made the right choice. A 50 HP in the M series is MUCH more tractor than a 50 in the L or Grand L series. I started w/L4400 (nice, but primitive) and ended w/ a 7040. you'll never look back bb

I've had my M5040 for about two weeks and I love it. I'm glad I went with it instead of green.

HEHE......I might have had to take a day off work.

Here are the pics.

Spent about 4 1/2 hours in the saddle.

Sad thing is I got a flat tire which cut my work short. Man was I pissed!!!!!

Sounds like I took a stick to the valve stem.
