Just wanted to say hay an introduce myself.
I just received my first tractor. It was my wifes grandfather's bought new in 1970. John Deere 2520 with a loader. It was always stored in the barn. When grandpa passed away, it was passed to my father-in-law. After he passed, it was sold to me earlier this week. After shipping it from upstate ny to southwest michigan, it sits next to my taurus.
I have lots of questions. Wish I had talked to my father-in-law before he passed. I grew up in the berbs, so no experience with tractors. Only thing i have going for me is that I have designed one-off machines for 20 years. I'm a practical engineer with a big garage shop with a mill, lathe, weld bench with vent hood, and lift.

I intend to get a brush hog for the back yard and dig a pond. Future to put in a food plot for deer.
