5085 E Cab Purchased

[bravo2zero]

Hi everyone... I purchased a JD 5085 E CAB and it supposed to arrive this upcoming week. I can't tell you how excited I am and the work list has begun. I was curious, what year would the tractor be if just purchased and this is something I should have asked the dealer but didn't.

One thing too. I purchased the MX8 pull behind and was wondering if there is an add-on to make the MX8 scoot 2-3 ft from left or right when mowing?

Pretty sure that's going to be a '14 model. IIRC, last year it would have been a 5083 E.

Don't know anything about making the 'hog do that. Unless you set your wheels all the way out, that 8' cutter is going to be hanging out about a foot on each side anyway.

Thanks Bigfoot62. I really can't wait. Sometime this week I was told last week. It has been a long month waiting.
