Ford 3415
Model Year: 1996

I purchased this tractor from Capital Equipment in Sherwood, Arkansas in 1996. Three implements were purchased with it, a box blade, post hole digger and a bush hog. I wore the bush hog out and am on my third one. It has been a good tractor. Mostly used for mowing and hogging, but also moving dirt around on our motocross track have replaced all of the tires once. The water pump has been replaced, the seat wore out, plus the battery finally went. The lift arm adjuster wore out and that was replaced too. I mounted a large pipe bumper/grille combo on it and the front has stayed dentless. The exhaust pipe is rusty and the tip is looking pretty rough. Since I don't have a garage or barn, it has been outside since new. The paint has faded and there is some surface rust but no complaints. I may even touch her up this summer. I tried using biodiesel, but the filter clogs up after about 20 minutes, so off road is the fuel of choice. The rear wheel seals are leaking and I have put off installing them because I guess I'm just lazy.

Pros: Great running little engine, compact enough to get around anywhere.
Cons: Could use a little more power sometimes. Busted up the fiberglass roof hitting low hanging trees.
