Nice tractor William. I've been doing some research on the MF mini tractors. I like the idea you can slide the deck out from under it. I would want the FEL too. There is a dealership inClarksville, Tennessee and the next time we go to the Cracker Barrel I'm going to drop by to look ay them. I'm a shrewd negotiator so I'llbe looking for the best deal either locally or out of state. I'd buy a 2012 to saves several grand as well. Will the deck still run if in reverse.
I backup using a bush hog a lot trying to push into heavy brush. Some of the newer mowers won't cut running in reverse. Safety feature I guess. I was wondering if that same approach effects the mini tractors. -kid
Let use know what you come up with kid and send some pictures.
Do you ever miss the 1523 William? Was that pictures of yours? I was curios on how the belly mower works with all of the frameworks for the loader??

Yupp, that was ours, traded in at 200 hours and got close to what we paid for it. It was a good little tractor, but too light for oue uses. It was a tad too short, chassis seemed stiff, compared to our 1635, did not flex as much as this one does.
I like the improvements on the 1526. The MF MMM QA system is slick, however, we are much happier with the RFM.
Always take the MMM off when doing field/ garden work, because if it ever bottoms out, that could get pricey.
One more question Rad. Does yours have power steering. I would think so since you have a FEL. Are the rear and front wheels fluid filled for ballast. If not can they be?
Here is a picture of mine Kid, I know you have probably seen several already..View attachment 306233
