Congrats on the new tractor! Did you get any attachments with it? Also, what are the plans for it...plowing, tilling, farting around? I know the others will probably want to see pics. Have fun.

Got a 6' rotary cutter with it,already have box blade and turning plow. We have 32 acres
,with less than half in woods to keep cleared.Hopefully a tiller is in the future someday.

Good deals "with rebates" for a few more days . Not sure when they end. This tractor is the grown-up version of the used 790 JD I had before. The controls and even the dash panel are exactly the same as on the 790.

Congrats!

I have the older style 5264D, FEL & ballast box, 60" MMM and 4' rake. Tiller soon!

I wish my machine had the lower work lights that the new ones have.

All in all, I LOVE my CC. Welcome to the family.

Deal ends May 31st according to the web site. When I checked them out last month, sales guy said until end of March yet the CC website even at that time said May 31st.

On a side note, I just noticed you are in TN.

Mind telling what region and who you bought the tractor from? PM is fine if you want to keep off the radar.

Congrats!

I myself just got a EX3200 late last year. Now that the weather is nicer I am giving it a daily work out tillin, scoopin, levelin, etc...

enjoy!

I got the EX3200 in Dec09. I wanted the EX450 for what I want to do later, but it was more than I can afford right now. I am using mine to clear land to build a house, build a road, dig ditches, install a culvert, you name it. I got a 5' brush cutter when I bought it, and I just bought a middle buster. I know you will be happy with yours.
