Big John (JD 4600) is getting a little brother

DennisFolsom · Jul 1, 2022

Little Red was sold and went up the road today. It served me well, but was nowhere near as much tractor as my new Little John. In less than a day's time, I got at least 8 inquiries from my ads on Craigslist and Facebook, as well as putting it out by the road with a For Sale sign on it. It seems to be a good time to sell a used lawn tractor in good condition.

The market is absolutely ridiculous, but that's to the benefit of the seller for sure! It seems you take care of your equipment, something that Craftsman's new owner will appreciate.

Given the title of this thread, I thought I should post a family photo of my two green siblings. Both got some exercise today and are a little dusty from working:

I ordered an S240 in May, still hasn't arrived.

Has your dealer done anything to attempt to speed up the process? An S240, ordered in May, and it seems you have no clue when it's going to be in? It's not like you want a low volume unit...

All three pictures are handsome! ha. And the grandson - no dents yet! also good. Nice tractor pulled by a great truck. You are surrounded by your best decisions. Congratulations. Good Bye Little Red.
