Compact Tractor Buying & Basics Just Published!

Harv,

I just got my "book" too!

I agree with you: 1) Muhammad has written a truly first class reference; and 2) the digital book is THE way to go. I was able to search and find about 40 topics in just a few minutes, and I can't do that with a print book.

Plus my 'ol beat up L175, trusty as it has been, has grown too tired for what I'm fixing to do on my land. So (with the consent of the Mrs.) just a few days ago I decided to start "shopping." Even though I've been a tractor man for going on ... (well, it's been quite a while--I ain't got no more hair left, and not so many teeth either), I found Muhammad's book popped up at just the right minute for me. It has really useful so far. Things have changed a lot since I bought my orange so long ago, it seems. And Muhammad seems to just cover every single angle. He was right, that I found things I hadn't considered. Now, if I can just get his negotiating tactics to work to get a few grand off the price, I'll be all set.

Thanks, Muhammad, many thanks.

Congratulations Muhammad, and best of luck with your book. Just ordered mine. I'm betting it will be very well-received /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif !!

Thanks for all the work it must have taken!!

Thanks for the comments, Bob! Send us some comments after you apply some of what is in the book to your actual purchase... I'm sure you'll be well equipped to find the right tractor, with the book in hand. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Larry,

Thanks. Yes, lots of work and research (years)... But worth it. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Congrats Muhammad!

Put me on the list to purchase a "real" book though! Nothing against Digital "books" and they are a nice alternative, but I'm the touchy, feely kind of person when it comes to books /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif. Sure would be nice if you could get a printed copy out sooner!

I'm very interested in the book, but I want to know if there are any restrictions with the electronic distribution. Specifically, can I transfer it from my computer to my laptop? Can I print off a section so that I can read it in front of the fireplace? The reason I ask is because I've been burned with the electronic format before, I was allowed 1 download and then I could only read it on that computer, no prints or backups allowed. Two weeks after i downloaded it, my computer needed reloaded and that was the end of my book. Needless to say, that was the last book i downloaded.

If there aren't any restrictions, I'll be ordering it ASAP...
Thanks!

Thanks, Jerry and Kevin...

Of course, we will keep everyone updated with the hard copy release plans...

Charliebrn,

Here are answers to your questions:

Specifically, can I transfer it from my computer to my laptop?

Yes.

Can I print off a section so that I can read it in front of the fireplace?

Yes, you can print any page or section out, or the entire book. Just load the printer and print. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Basically, normal copyright rules/laws apply... you can't send/distribute it to other people, etc.

If you ever lost the book from your system, we would send it to you again.
