And now for the rest of the story:


The wife has been with me on my jaunts to the JD dealer for parts for my old JD750 and has had to endure my, er, "window shopping"..... my drooling over the new JD's. She had noticed the 0% for 48 financing and one day about a week ago when I got home from work she said, "That JD financing deal expires March 2nd and I want you to buy you a new tractor before it expires."


Son, I dang near fainted. Not one to question the better-half's judgement on important matters such as this, I decided I'd better strike while the iron was hot!!!


What a woman.

There must be something in the air or water in South Carolina. My wife told me back in late summer of last year that I needed a new tractor, by the end of September I owned a slightly used JD 3320. Then when I spotted an "almost new" KK tiller on Craigslist a couple of weeks ago, she said I better get it before someone else beats me to it.

Boy, that is a good looking tractor. Got to admit, as much as I like my 790, it would be a tough choice between the two of them.

Congrats.


Evidently you, like me, are a Lucky Man.

Yep... she sounds like a "definite keeper"!!

Be sure to let her drive it around the yard once in awhile on warm, sunny days! :D

Zero snow accumulation here. Once again our wonderful weathermen TOTALLY missed the forecast.



Oh well. Hopefully one day I'll be able to fill that FEL with snow!!!
