Well my neighbor replaced the one I bought from him. He brought home a 5625 with 300 hrs on it ... a 2009 model. It has a shuttle shift, hi and low range switches on the shifting lever and 90 hp ... other than that pretty much the same inside the cab. Also has a button system on the back fender to raise and lower the 3 point from the ground ... that was a nice feature.

When I went over to look the first thing he says "I'll trade ya tires" !!!

He bought 99% the same tractor except you now have the multi thousand dollar radials. I understand his reasoning, however, since he is growing older and if you don't enjoy the $$$ now, the kids will only fight over it. It's all good.

The more I use this tractor the more pleased I am. The backhoe was a walk in the park to remove. It took longer to replace the 3 point hitch than it did to get the hoe off.

I'm not reaching as much for the shuttle shift as I was !!
