Tractor Delivered today!

[GoldenCityMuse]

Well, my tractor was delivered at 1515 this afternoon.

I ended up deciding to purchase a Cabela's LM55HST Cab.

My ~49 acre property is moderately wooded, ranges from 5% - 35+% slopes, and I live at an elevation of 7600'.
Was looking initially at the Yanmar, but after perusing these threads multiple times, as well as reading about all the good deals others were getting, decided to go bigger & also at the time, the Yanmars did not have a cab model.

Going to maintain my driveway, clear snow, install some fence, and move wood for some of my basic tasks.

Congratulations on the new machine!! Hope it brings years of trouble free service for you.

 

[GoldenCityMuse]

Thanks everybody.

Bit overwhelmed at the moment.
This is actually the first time I have ever operated it, or even sat in one. I did it all via internet, email, texting, and a few phone calls.
I doubt many others have purchased this way.

In fact, I've never had a tractor before in my life.

Now to get implements. On Tues going to look at a box blade scraper.
Already ordered pallet forks , so really need them too.

Will be starting new thread in owning/operating next I think.

Good looking tractor, hope it goes well for you
If you have to trailer any distance again, might be worth thinking about reversing onto the truck or trailer, so the tractor is going backwards all the way. If a door on the cab then opens for any reason (flexing on bumps, loose latch, not fastened properly, etc) it won't fly open and smash the glass. The experienced loaders and drivers around here always seem to do that with cab tractors (or maybe there are more bumps in the roads and verges here? I have heard of a few cases of smashed doors in transit.) Good luck! Mort

Very nice unit. You will enjoy the cab. Just be aware when in areas with trees and the such. Got to have some pictures once you get it working.

Have fun and be careful out there.
