Good deal! Sounds like you have a great dealer. That's worth a whole lot...

Let's see some photos...

Stuck at work till Friday night. Probably be late, will be home Sunday and going to move a 40' conex so I'll take some pics of it working. I did put it in my conex to keep it out of the sun!

Here's the new tractor. In the pic that shows fresh scraped dirt, that's all I did when the scarfier broke! Mustve been a casting flaw. You'd think a construction grade BB would have a little higher quality parts. Hopefully it's under warranty, first time using the scarfiers too. Maybe I'm just cursed!

Must be all that power....just ripped it apart.

Just kidding, it does appear to be a bad casting. Enjoy the new tractor, it looks sweet.

Loving it so far. Really enjoy the loader capacity and the cab! Dealer is ordering new scarifier

Thanks. I liked the wider tires and the lower ride height allows me to store it in our conex box! There are times when the r-1s would be handy though. Dealer had to jump thru hoops to get this one though!

Sharp tractor. I hope this one turns out well for you. That's a shame about the scarifier. Seems like a lot of new equipment is made of cheap material anymore.

Just bought a 5065E myself and have been using my BB2172 like crazy and in much rockier/clay soil. Some rocks it peeled up were so big I had to sledge them out of the box blade. Your scarficers are more commercial grade than mine so I am amazed you busted one.

Nice cab/tires. Two options I wanted but couldn't have due to my terrain/trees. I already scratched up my ROPs bar pretty good :/ The 240 loader is fantastic.

Did John Deere discontinue the 553 loader?

I have one on mine but I see everyone else has H series.
