I'll post pictures soon (as if everybody out there hasn't seen a few dozen of these already). But to recap, I sold the
BX25 for $14,000 to a great guy living about an hour away from me. My Kubota dealer offered me a very reasonable $6000 on the Massey Ferguson I had to trade in.
He arrived with my new Kubota on the back of his truck, unloaded, and prepared to load my Massey trade. I found that...I just couldn't trade it in. I purchased that tractor with my Dad, who has since passed away. Even though I readily admit that it makes all the sense in the world to do maintenance on just one tractor, I couldn't bring myself to leave it go. I kept the Massey, and now have two tractors.
So, alongside the Massey now sits an MX5100 with HST, front end loader, and a bunch of acres to mow this fall. Ag tires are on it, and loaded. I skipped the rear remotes at this time, and will bug all of you here for advice on which type to install when/if I have the need. Great tractor so far, with the exception of a starting issue, which is detailed on the Owning/Operating section.
