Heres the first picture of it home. I need to take more pictures this weekend of me driving it. I really want to take a picture of the tractor next to my L118.

that's a cool looking tractor!! have fun, be careful with it.

 

[Erik_in_Hoyt]

you got a good deal - cherry looking machine!

 

[Johndeere3720]

I will be very carefull! Tomarrow I am going to do lots of grading with it and my rear blade so i will take pictures. I even found out it has calcium in the tires.

Congrats on the new machine. Wish I could have had a tractor at 14. The best I could do then was beg the neighbor to run his old John Deere B around a bit. Keep an eye on the gauges and fluid levels for awhile. Not sure, but I think Yanmar builds the engines for JD compact tractors, so it ought to last "forever". Nice looking tractor, and a good investment.....Dan.

Heeeeeey Jaaaaaake,
You've been keeping us in suspense all day. Where's the pictures of your newly purchased tractor ??? Sure hope you're getting some good seat time my friend.

He is probably still riding it. That kid will not be home until Sunday night. His mom is going to kill him!

Yep, If he's got lights on it, he ain't gonna shut 'er down 'til he runs out of fuel. That might be a long time. Those little Yannies run forever on a gallon of fuel. A few years ago, I would have done the same thing myself. Now I fall asleep when the sun goes down....Dan.

 

[missourithunder]

Not that I'm worried or anything but has anyone heard from the kid ???

Alright Jake it's 6:26 pm in Oregon and the very first thing you better do is get on this message board and tell us what's going on with that Yanmar when you are finished playing with it.

tree farmer,
You're right. If I were his mom I would have choked him out by now for not telling us if he's OK. For all I know he could have driven it off a cliff.

I have used the yanny in the dark once and have put on 10.5 hours now. This weekend im at my dads, missing the yanmar but I do get to drive the 3720. My mom sure likes that yanny and even let me park it in the garage. My mom is so nice and I love her. She even bought me a new imatch for it. I did get a new bumper sticker for it today, its a boomer 8N sticker. I just need to figure out where to put it. Ive also been eying google for the pictures of my 169D on this site. I hopefully will have lots of pictures next week as my mom is going to get the pictures on a disk. I even have pictures of the yanmar next to my JohnDeere L118. I cant wait to post pictures. Now I just need my dog to climb on the seat for a picture. P.S. we only have 1 hill and it is to over grown to drive on. I just stick to the driveway and the upper end of the property to play, i mean work. The driveway is a little steep though and I go strait up and down. Safety first.
