Congrats!
Awesome! Went through similar anguish trying to decide between the XR3037H and XR4040H for my first tractor just last month. Weight, bigger front wheels, and the higher PTO all contributed to the decision, and I'm already glad I picked the bigger horse. After mowing and scooping a little dirt 2 weeks ago, was very glad I chose HST.
Guessing you must've bought from RCO? Good folks and the delivery guy was awesome. Hope you enjoy!
If you have any money left I'm sure the guys at ETA could fix you up with a box blade PDQ.Yep! RCO. Stuart was very patient with all my newbie questions and didn't try to up sell me to a bigger tractor. Unfortunately, they didn't have any box blades in stock, so now I am trying to hunt one down or maybe order one online. As everything tractor related, the more money the bigger and sturdier the equipment, lol.

I have their 72" box blade in my cart lol. But...the nearest freight hub is over 60 miles away if I want free delivery, so I am more likely to have it delivered to our farm. But if I pay for delivery then I should buy the other implements I will need in the future, right? Maximize delivery efficiency, lol?
I've been led to believe that 60 miles in Texas was considered next door neighbors and nowhere near far enough if your daughters were pretty.
It arrived!

Took it out for an hour and filled in some deep ruts. Got stuck for ten minutes digging in muddy pasture, lol.
Going to order a box blade from EA on Monday.
