Well my how plans change, was working in the garage on my troybilt tiller before I was going to the dealer and the dealer called. Just had a L5030 cab taken on trade. Less than 200 hours, been used to pull a reel mower and 10K cheaper than the 5240. He emailed me a couple of pics and I bought it over the phone. Won't get it until next week because he wanted to service it and I want to get 1 remote installed.

Got it today

I would have to agree, 33% is a ton of money. If you are into this machine for the long haul and plan to do a lot of dirt work, the 40 series is built a lot heavier.

Are you sure??? The sheet metal looked like the only thing changed to me. Is it just hidden heaviness?

( I new some woman like that) Of course there are newer options no doubt.

Thanks for the replies and the information emailed to me. TexasJohn, that was a wealth of info that you sent. I printed it out and went out and sat in the cab and read it all Saturday during a downpour. I have farmed for 25 years and I am more impressed with this tractor than any other that I have owned or operated.
