What's the Difference 5000E & M

Also make sure you get the 32f/16r transmission and engine block heater. I also took the liberty of adding the instructor seat, you might as well do it right. Just add the loader and hydraulic hookups you want to the quote and you will be good to go!

Excuse My ignorance, but what is an Instructional Seat?

Thanks Deerherd, Won't need that and I'm not getting a cab.

Well Folks, I just ordered a 5085M with the H260 loader, heavy duty bucket, Addington heavy duty Root rake grapple and the Fransgard V6500 logging winch. I have sold my JD 4700 with the Addington standard duty grapple. I also have for sale the Fransgard V4000 winch for 3500. My dealer never had an M series on the lot for me to compare to the E- series. But from all of my readings on the site, the members help and research I've done I think the M is the best way to go both for my use and resale purposes. I'll post pic's when it comes in, but that won't be for about 2-months

It should make a real nice Christmas present to yourself. Enjoy!

Thanks Deerherd, It will be. I did get to drive a 5085E around the parking lot for a while, and the dealership had a tractor the size of my old one to compare. I thought it was cool to take a pic.
