    Hello all. It's been a while since I've been on the forum. I want to hear from L45 and M59 owners. I want to hear how you use your machine and what you think about them now that both models have been out for a few months.

    Brady and I were in the process of doing a deal on my M7040 when he dropped off the face of the earth. He does not answer his telephone, or return calls and he does not answer his Emails. In my conversations with Brady, he did not seem like the kind of business man that would just ignore me and...

    M7040 STEERING PROBLEM

    B26 VS B7800

    I have a friend who is looking for a small tractor for his 15 acre horse ranch. He has looked at the B7800 and the B26. Comparing both, what is the best between the two?

    I SAT ON A BRAND NEW M59 TODAY !

    My dealer recieved his first M59 last week, with no back hoe. So I drove there and gave it a good look over. WOW! This is a very, very, nice machine.

    QUESTION FOR NEW M SERIES OWNERS

    At times, my M7040 makes a quick, short, "Shreaking" sound on start up after sitting for a couple of days. It also makes this same noise some times on hard "Lock to lock" turns. (Kind of like a loose power steering belt) Has any other new M series owners experianced this noise with their machines?
