How far would you travel for the right tractor?

[ovrszd]

Don't remember mileage, was 7 hrs one way to get my Kubota.

Travelled 2 hours each way last January to get my B2601 Kubota with FEL. None of the 3 dealers closer to home had tractors with loaders. Winchester Equipment.

Had to travel 6 hours each way in 2016 for our Mazda3 6M. Local dealer said none available and even said this car was not there. Came home and looked up phone # on Auto Trader, and dealer said it was there. We rented a car and drove up. Nicest dealership we've ever used: Baglier Motors.

I once drove 1,100 miles round trip in 1 day for a used walk behind mower...

In 2018, I drove 2.5 hours to go look at a (used) JD, then drove 2.5 home to get the truck and trailer, then 2.5 to go get it, then 2.5 back home (all in one day). If I was looking at a NEW one now, I'd stay MUCH closer to home.

I drove 5 and a half hours for mine.

For my first tractor I drove close to 7 hours each way.
On my second, and so far, last, I took a 2 hour flight.

Wow. Never seen a fly-n-drive with a tractor before. That must have been an experience

2 hours there, 16 days back....

Dang!!! 16 days bacK? Wouldn't it have been quicker to rent a truck & trailer and haul it back?

That was a joke referencing how long it might take to drive a tractor...
