0% for 72 Months on Massey GC and 1500's

[Bever22]

I had 104 hrs and I just wanted something a little bigger. I use the BH alot and the 1528 has one that works alot faster than the 2310. I really did like the 2310, it was a great tractor and it did everything I needed to do but with the finance deals I just decided to jump.

Nice!! I am partial to the new tractor. You get it dirty yet??

The new machine is a beauty - and it will be handy to have the separate seat for the BH, too.

For some quick jobs I often just kneel on the seat rather than turn it around, which is a minor PITA.

I only have 50 hours on my 2310, but have been very impressed at what I've been able to do with it so far - and I can drive it into my garage without having to lower the ROPS (with < 1" to spare. ).

The 2310 is a great machine, you will have it for a long time. I also use a rotory cutter and cut several acres so this 1528 should make it easier.

Sunday it will be dirty, for a while then I will clean it up

Geez, out of the two, I'd just as soon take the 0/72 and call it even.

2.99% is okay, but not compared to the 0/72.

I couldn't agree more. I'm looking at a GC2400 with the MMM and a loader. The local dealer has a 4' rototiller and a 30" posthole digger for $1500 and $500 seems like a good deal to me? The tractor is about $10,000 after my trade in. Dealer is right in town and has been there for 30+ years.

Im really curious just how well the 60" mower cuts? Anyone have any experience? They want $500 to upgrade to the GC2600 suposedly it give 3 more HP out of the exact same engine by raising the RPM. Anyone know anything about this and if it's worth the extra bucks? Doesn't seem like it to me.

Thanks,

Bill

Bever22,
Just out curiousity about how much was the 1528 tlb? I have been looking at the MF 2310 for some years and recently the 2410/2610, but was looking for something a bit bigger because I don't need it to mow and wanted a little better numbers in loader capacity. I was quoted at just about $25 for a 1528 tlb hydro and $100 more for the 1529 Gear TLB which I thought was a bit high so I have been looking at the TYM T273 TLB which is very similar to the Kioti CK20. From what I hear I am worried about the TYM and Kioti being around in 5-10years but they build a stout tractor for its size. I am still looking so i got time, but would like to get one soon now that I am ready for the big purchase.

I got mine for $24,622 complete. I didnt think it was too bad so I jumped. I really do like the machine, it is very capable of what I need it for. The 2310 was also a great machine for what I needed it for but I just wanted a little bigger.

Bever22,

Good lookin tractor.

I have the GC2310 and am thinking of trading and getting the 1528 with the same set-up as you now have. One question, does the MF backhoe come off as easy as it does on the 2310?

I haven't had it off yet but it looks to be a little more complicated. The entire sub-frame comes off so you need to take out a pin in the rear, 2 stabilizer bolts and guide the whole thing out. Installing looks to be just as much of a pain but I have been told it gets easier with practice.
