- 1969 massey 135 and a 2013 m7040hd 4x4 2013 L3800 HST 4x4
Well really I want Friday evening and bought it/ made the deal went Saturday to pick it up and sign the paper work since the deal was made on the phone after I left since the wouldn't agree to my price tell after I left and was on my way home and they was really done closed . But the dealer has my phone and really is a Neighbor since he lives a 1/2 past my place .
And ya I had thinking about a L3800 for a few weeks . And me and my mom went to get the sprayer . And I showed her the L3800 since she had also been wanting a tractor she could Operate . Since she didnt like the big size of the m7040 I have and she can't really operate the old mf135 since it has no power steering and the clutch is pretty hard to push .
So the sales came out with the keys and put us on it . And after a hour or so of Negotiation he was still $500 shy of my offer and like said after we left he called and agreed to it so we got it . It was the last HST L3800 he had .
The tractor will be my moms/ hired hands that I hire to mow with it .
It's main duty will be to mow grass in a 20 acre peach orchard and do other piddle jobs .
Will probley be adding a 3rd function and a grapple or grapple claw on the bucket .
Any advice on the 3rd function I mite want .
Plus will probley be adding at least one rear remote since it doesn't have one . Any thoughts on the best route to go dealer or add my self .
And the rear tires will be flipped out wider . The dealer will be doing this for me as soon as the cruise control comes in for it had had him order since he said he would do it for free .
