I picked up my new 2017 XG3037 Friday. Needless to say, I'm happy to be a tractor owner again. The last tractor that I owned was a rebuilt Ford 8N back in 1982. I have 4.5 acres in which a little under 2.5 is still thick wooded and a private road to help maintain.
I got the XG3037 with a loader and box blade. I really don't have a need for a cutter, yet. Thought about getting a landscape rake or a Rachet Rake to aid in thinning out the woods?
The first mod was a spinner knob. I know, i know. I read the thread where this was a subject of "for & against civil unrest". As soon as I figure out the best spot, I'll be mounting an ammo can for a tool box. I discovered yesterday day that a DIY bottle holder is definitely something that I need to figure out, quick.
It's my first time with a FEL but I find it similar to operate as a forklift that I used to run. The shuttle shift is taking a little getting used to. I've already run a tank of fuel through the tractor an feel like it's going to fit my property needs well.
I had been lurking through this forum as I researched and made up my mind about buying a new tractor. I want to say thank you to all of you that have so freely shared your advice, creativity and words of wisdom. People do read and take into consideration all things said here.
