Anyone familiar with General Truck & Equipment or Orchard Hill Sales

[NEFirewood]

I bought my 2015HST from Orchard Hill. Ed Kirby is what I would consider to be a great dealer. He doesn't sell junk equipment, or junk 3 point attachments. I've been back there several times after the sale of my tractor. Plus my 2015 has been literally bullet proof in 1.5 years of operation so far.

Bought the 2015hst from Orchard Hill yesterday with a woods 52" tiller and woods 4ft brush hog. It should be delivered friday or saturday! I haven't had a tractor (or a farm) for about 3 years now and I can't wait to get back to playing, er, I mean, working in the dirt.

I hope you are happy. I have done so much work with my little Mahindra I can't believe how I got along without it. I especially like using the rear mower to keep a small field cut short for an elderly woman that lives close by. She's so happy I do it for her, she stops by the house and brings me pies in the summer that she bakes. I've dug out my new 2 car garage last summer, hauled cords and cords of firewood, moved snow, leveled land. It's been a great machine so far.

General T & E is solid. Great reputation in the area. Always getting "new" used merchandise offered at a decent price. Never personally worked w/ them on a service issue, but my dealings with them in past (while shopping thier lot) has been good. They go head to head with a Kubota dealer couple miles across the river in NH. Given there's no sales tax in NH the GT&E guys have still been able to hold thier own. I'm a bit biased too... I try to make all my big and small ticket purchases locally.

Impressive model train collection too, worth checking out.
