Tractor
Massey 1529
After months of looking at multiple brands, new and used. I finally purchased a Massey Ferguson 1529 with a W.R. Long 4 in 1 Bucket and HST transmission. The guy threw in a 4ft kodiak landscape rake. The tractor has 82 hours. 13k. The 4 in 1 Sold me. Here's a quick pic from my phone.

You did fine...you're happy and that's all that counts.
Don't second guess your purchases or decisions...and don't ask us about how ya did.
Sooner or later, some yahoo would rain on your parade.
So, just go enjoy that Massey!

I paid $11K in 1994 for a new Kubota B7100 with a FEL and no implements. I think you did great, in comparison.

Thanks. I always seem to second guess a big purchase. They guy had never even hooked an attachment to the three point hitch. The upper link was still ty-wrapped in place, pto plastic sleeve never removed, and the lower link attach point still painted in place.
So yes, i'm very pleased. It's actually more tractor than i intended to purchase, but from eveything I have read here says always buy more tractor than you think you need!

Egads man, I sure wish you had come to us in the first place. I fear you have been horribly duped into paying way too much for such a poorly made tractor in such low demand. Being the humanitarian I am though, I will be willing to take that off your hands for a slight loss, I know, I know, but I missed the boat for my usual trip with Habitat for Humanity and feel I must make amends...

Seriously, you did great and sage advice from Roy.:thumbsup:
