Depends on how you look at it.
I have 253 hours on mine.
If I had paid sombody 40 dollars per hour for this work it would have cost me over $10,000.oo & I would have the work but no tractor .
As it stands I have both the work and the tractor. )</font>

Yes I have definately saved money for all the things that I have accomplished with the luxury of having a tractor. My place is much more valuable now because of the looks and much better looking lawn. So not only did I save money by doing it myself, I improved the value of my property. I have many more plans for my property now... even a pond and I am sure the little wife will come up with more "Honey-Do" jobs ; /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Oh yeah and she mentioned that song about the tractor. Might just have made other things better too... /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif LOL.
Having a tractor sure has changed things around my home. Could be that having a tractor is VERY Theraputical as well. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
