I am buying new B3030, hope I made right choice!

I live on 160 acres and have an older ford5000 with jd709 cutter and 8ft blade. I wanted something to do my general mowing , light gradeing and fel work. I am awaiting delivery of a new B3030 with fel 6ft mower and box blade. Looking for any opinions or advice. thanks <font color="black"> </font>

What price didi you pay? I got the B3030 with fel with 6ft woods mower and 5ft box blade for 19200.00. Just curious if I am getting a fair deal.

Sounds like we got simular deals. I didn't get the mmm. Thought about it, but was worried it would get in the way doing dirt work. I own a lot of heavily forrested land.

mmm removes in about 5 minutes. i used to mow (7 acres, lotsa trees) with a finish mower. i barked the trees regularly while turning. after 5 hours looking over my shoulder, my neck hurt. with the mmm you're looking at the side and can easily go around your trees. 3030 turns sharp for it's size, in 2wd. if you mow around trees, in my opinion ( and you know about opinions) the 72" mmm is better.............
