I'm an avid skier so winter is always welcome. I'm excited about not having to repair patches of the front lawn ripped up by the plow guy. Very cool upsized tires on yours!

In due time I have to put in a new chimney so the FEL got put a$ide for now. Its on the short list though.

Not by ME.

Gonna love your new BX. Enjoy!!! Bet you're excited about snow for the first time in awhile? From one 1860 BXer to another, welcome aboard.

I didn't think you could get industrial tread on 18 series. Only Bar or turf?

Never mined. Just found the pics in the Photo sections.

Wow, I did the short cut and with the standard wheels I got the bigger tractor and more hp also!

And a bigger sticker price.

Seriously, the larger wheels and tires cost me less than a 100 bucks net. Sold the turfs that came off on CL in a day for list. Only paid $8900 for the 1860. Very, very pleased. Haven't needed the additional hp for what I do. If I needed more tractor, for some unknown reason I cannot imagine, I'd get a little B for virtually the same money.

You got a great machine. Enjoy it. Best Wishes,

4Rook,
Congratulations on your new purchase and welcome to TBN. You're going to love your tractor. Might as well set aside $400 and plan for new tires and rims because those pancake size rims on the front are going to drive you crazy.
