I have not had a chance to check it out yet but I will!! I did some work with the tooth bar today, leveling my yard from the timbering company and straighting my driveway some. Had some full buckets already!!!

Thanks everyone!! I did get almost 2 hours on it today. I have a lot to get used to being this is my 1st tractor. I already ran into the garage door because I'm not used to opening it that far and I kind crunched my wifes little dog carrier..... Oops... I did however pull some short logs up and I did pull a couple of cherry tree tops that were probably 35-40' long. They welded 2 hooks on top of the Imatch that works awesome, you can take a 20' chain wrap around one log hook it up then hook up the other log and leave the extra in the middle. This tractor has saved me a ton of work already!!!!

Congratulations, Tom. She's a beauty. I know you're going to love it.
I assume the toothbar is a John Deere unit? What size bucket did you get, and could you post some close up pics of the tooth bar?
Have fun and be safe.
Looking forward to more pics....

So far I haven't needed it, it was a last minute thing and when I talked to my salesman yesterday morning he said he didn't charge me for it...... So that was a tooth bar and ballast box that were never written into the quote!!! :thumbsup: rear blade should be here today or tomorrow from everthing attachments then I will have to paint that JD Green!!!! I am still waiting on the JD receiver hitch and tire chains.......

I have to get used to them Rops, I had a few branches attack me yesterday also. I'm glad I dropped the mower deck in the garage because I had to slow down to go over it, if not I probably would have had a garage door on my lap!!! The only problem I see now is here in PA we have just been swamped with rain... Looks like she will be sitting a while now, the 10 forecast shows chance of rain every day...

Yes, I've done it twice now. I have a new bottom panel on order since it looks pretty bad after pounding back into shape for the second time.
I'm going to suspend a piece of electrical conduit from the soffit with some chains so that it will make a noise when I hit it, before I take the door out.
