I went with ML also. Tim Jordan was my salesman. Knows his stuff and works on them too.

Sounds like a great machine to add to the DK40 and the Massey.

Any chance you will be using it for mowing slopes that are too much the other two tractors? Interested as I have some slopes I chose not to cut with my CK27 (I am a "sissy" on hills with a standard tractor). Considering adding a slope mower in the future. What tire set-up did you go with? What type of Fuel Economy are you seeing mowing. As you have heard - pictures are nice.

Enjoy the the new machine.

Great looking machine! The 60 "deck looks small on that big 4500!

Very nice machine. Thanks for the information and pictures. Keep us posted how it is working for you over time and any fuel enonomy numbers if you keep track. I am hoping for a long warm fall this year. I can wait until at least Christmas for you to get to try out the snowblower.

Take care and enjoy the new machine.
