WAAAAHOOOO!!!! Got my 3525 today!!!

[xlr82v2]

I got my 3525 today! They delivered it at about 3:00 this afternoon. The tractor had 1.3 hours on it when it came off the truck, and I've got 2.0 on it now.

First thing I did was go down to the woods and get a bucket full of dirt to finish the landscaping around our "patio". Then, I did some cleanup around the wood pile out back. I didn't do it all though, wanted to keep some chores for later! Plus, it got pretty darned hot here today, and tomorrow is going to be hotter I think. Can't wait 'till fall!

Man, I love having hydraulics!!

Now I need to go and get me some Diesel cans and a big funnel... won't be burning quite as much gasoline as before Right now the only thing that I don't really like about the tractor is the location of the fuel tank filler... but it's not that big of a deal.

Congrats You will be on that tractor all the time, just looking for stuff to do. Don't know if your interested in a canopy, but if you are Wells Ag. in TX. has the ones to get. Powder coated metal with insulation in red, white or diamond plate for around $350 delivered.

Scott, I take it you have a Wells Ag Company canopy? I've told people about them lots of times because I used to live close to them. I suppose they still only sell the canopies through tractor dealers, but they have lots of dealers and would welcome new ones the last time I talked to them. My Kubota dealer put one on my 1999 B2710, then I added the rear view mirror, front and rear work lights, and both side to side, and front to rear tiltmeters.

I'd love to get a canopy, but it just wouldn't work out for me... My tractor is too tall with the ROPS up to get into my shed/garage... so I have to put the ROPS down to put the machine to bed when I'm done for the day.

Actually, I'll probably leave the ROPS down most all the time except when I'm back in the woods 'hoggin my ground back in there... there's some pretty good hillsides back there. Up on my high ground, it's all flat and the risk of overturning is virtually nil.

I was going to get the same tractor to go with my 9N but decided on a 3215 so I could get a back ho. Its a good team with the Mahindra with a FEL & BH and the box blade behind the Ford 9N. I can dig, tote and smooth without doing more than changing seats.

Congrats. Looks very familiar I have about 38 hours on my tractor now and I'm still loving it. It does make me hate rain even more though!! I need to finish bush hogging the rest of my 24 acres.

On a side note, I noticed in your pics that you have the bucket pointed down. I believe you should store it with the bucket fully upright so you are not exposing the hydraulic cylinders.

Sounds like the canopy I have. Love it.
