After a long wait of about 2 1/2 weeks my B7610 will be arriving this afternoon. I will post some pics along with first impressions whenever I can.

Oh boy, is this going to be great! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Wayne, congrats, I'm sure you'll love it.

But some things to remember about tractors.
1) Never let your wife see you smile while you use it.
2) Always come inside after every session on the tractor, wipe the sweat off your brow, grunt in pain a little and rest a while to show that you have been working.
3) Never spill diesel fuel on your clothes and put them in the wash. You would be better off setting yourself on fire and then trying to put it out by rolling your flaming body on a fire ant hill than dealing with the wrath of a wife who's entire load of clothes smells like diesel.
4) If your wife sees a NEW implement, just say OH, WE'VE HAD THAT ALL ALONG YOU MUST NOT HAVE NOTICED IT. (this means you can't let it show up on the credit card bill, or have a new tag stuck on it when it is delivered . . . in fact some dealers will throw mud on an implement before they deliver them, those are the good dealers)
5) Remember, 4 Wheel Drive is actually code for : YOU CAN NOW GET STUCK FARTHER AWAY FROM HELP
6) If you hurt yourself, muffle the screams of pain, your wife doesn't want you to have that tractor anyway so she is looking for an excuse to get rid of it (and to call you an idiot for spending money that rightfully should have been spent on jewelry and other necessities she might enjoy).
7) This is a biggie . . . when your wife sees you smiling while you are reading TBN, tell her you are looking at pornography, at least she will understand why you look at that.

Which is a good case for a water bottle holder of some type if the tractor does not have one...for those times you are not sweating but need to play the part...sprinkle here, sprinkle there...works like a charm... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Don't forget one more important point. You never play with your tractor you always call it "work". It is not your toy it is a "tool" to do important "work". /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Funny Bob. I enjoyed that. It was funny about the implements thing, 'cause this weekend I plan on going down to TSC and picking up a KK BB. It's a grad opening with 10% off plus another 10% off if you use the TSC charge. I figure for $280 it'll at least make a good ballast.

The tractor was delivered around 6:30. Didn't have too much time to play. Though I did move some pea gravel and mowed in the field some. Boy that 60" deck seems loud!

The bucket work was new to me. And it took a couple lifts and dumps in order to get some lifting power out of the hydrolics. Seems fine now. I'll get back with more info when I get some more seat time.

Took some pics, gotta upload them......

Definitely, one of the happiest days of my life.

I've had my B7610 since April. I've got a little over 20hrs on it so far. I love mine, and I am sure you will love yours too.
Yes the Box Blade does make a great ballast.

Hey Wayne - let me know how you like the 7610 - trying to decide between a 7800 and 7610. Thanks. John
