Your Tractor's Age????

[slowrev]

Am going to look at a Kubota 4wd around 30 hp with 260 hours. tiller, rear finish mower, landscape rake and back blade for 13,900 this weekend though.
Don't know the exact model number. I wonder if the owner will take my wife in trade ?

Let me know about that one If you need to up the ante a bit, I'll throw mine in on the deal, and you can keep the Kubota. If it'll make things more attractive, I'll haul it home for you.

She just got home from a shopping trip with my 2 daughters. I smell hot plastic.....................

I'm really surprised by this so far!!! I'm beginning to wonder if those with new tractors are reluctant to respond for some reason. I knew 3RRL would respond. I hear most of the discussion on these forums by late model tractor owners. But those that are responding here are the vintage model owners. Anyway, their loss!!!

So far we've had 21 responses. The average age of the tractors reported is 19.66 years old!!! That's awesome!!! Should give everyone a good feeling if they've bought a late model, quality tractor!!! They've got a lot of years of use ahead of them.

I was especially surprised by the positive responses from the Yanmar owners that are still running tractors that are twenty plus years old!!

Just read a post from Birdhunter1 about his purchase of a 17 year old tractor and whether it was vintage or not. From that I got an idea that it might be interesting to hear the age of your tractor. For those that have multiples, we don't need to hear about all of them. To set a fair playing field, you can only list the tractor you put the most hours on in a year. So one tractor per person, the most used. All sizes of tractors, CUTs and SCUTs apply.

Mine would be a 2001 Kubota B2910.

Honestly, I would have to say it's close to a tie between the '91 2955 and the '61 4010 (both ag tractors). The 4010 will be retiring to light duty work in the near future though.
