Tractor
Ford 2000 (I think!)
Ok-I finally did it!

1-I JOINED! :) (been a long time lurker)

2-BOUGHT a tractor!


But...some issues. I bought what I thought to be a Ford 2000/FEL. Now it seems to be a Ford 3000. Not that it matters much, just having a tough time telling them apart!

I paid (what I feel) is a SCREAMING deal for a not-so-perfect-handy-mans-special. I had done TONS of work on garden tractors (high school job) and found them quite easy to work on. Not so much after 4 hours of owning this blue blob!

What I did do is buy both the operators and maintenance manuals, and had them show up before the tractor. Now to get to the dirty work..will be posting plenty for sure!!!

Welcome, and you actually got a bonus getting a 3000 instead of the 2000. They are almost identical physically, but the 3000 had more hp and features.
