She's Finally Here...so now I have a question.

Peter, nice to hear from you! How is your quest going?

Hi John, thanks for asking. My quest is on hold. I'm still looking around (but not seriously) and reading the forums now and again. I missed out on a couple local used tractors on craigslist but that was probably for the better. Just got the tuition bill for this school year and my tractor looks further away then ever. Oh well. I'm lucky to have access to a nice NH 45HP 4WD with loader. It's just not mine, and right now it's tied up brush hogging somewhere else while I'd be doing landscaping and loader work if I had it/my own here. Maybe by the time I get round to buying one these EX3200 will be heavily discounted on the used market.

Keep us posted and don't forget the pictures!

When I had my Harley and my current car, I was fanatical about that first oil change...and Axle, I have seen those tiny silver flecks in the oil on both of those. Think I will spend the money and do it early. Cheap peace of mind.

Onelostdog, probably cheaper than you realize. I'm guessing you can get a wix filter at the local auto supply/o reilly/auto zone/ etc.. and a 5 quart jug of good multigrade havoline or ?? And for less than $30 You can imagine that old harley "shaker" now is re-incarnated with a bucket and a 3pt. Hitch and instead of "shaket" its called "bee"

Hahaha! Yep axle, I must be getting old...sold my Milwaukee Vibrator and bought a Bumblebee.

Slight correction...as the saying goes, "it's not the age, it's the mileage."

As long as the shocks are still moving up and down there's still life and usefulness in the engine.

And . . as I recall for shakers . . Your bee will probably get better fuel mileage too

Haha. Yep I believe she might.
