2 years ago today we closed on our property we now live on full time.
i had found my TC about 3 weeks before our closeing and had aranged payment and pickup the day after we closed. (fri we closed, sat morning we headed to pick up the tractor)
per my tractor log book. dash hr meter read 233, just got done cutting up a dead 10" oak limb that fell down in the last thunderstorm in the front yard and hauling the wood back in the FEL. Looked down and the hr meter read 380
at 253 hrs i did the 300 hr maintenance not knowing what the previous owner did for maintenance.
so in 2 years ive managed 130 hrs use, looking over my log, split 50/50 per year so 65 hrs per year. Ive heard 100hrs a year is considerable seat time for a CUT.
i guess i need to change the engine oil again.
while a little behind on our 5 year plan to be living in a new built-by-us house, we are still mostly on track having gotten the old house burnt down late this spring.
We have started developing the house plan, and the next stage will be dealing with the hole in the ground from the basement of the old house.
When we set off on this journey and decided we would move into a single wide trailer we set on the property, we thought 5 years max. How quickly time flies! (course we only closed on our STL city house this April)
