wow I can't believe what i'm reading here :shock: it is 10:20 pm here in carvel and I just came in from getting all the rotten hydraulic hoses, lines and the hyd. oil tank out of the m5. filled 1/2 a garbage can of oily towels cleaning up the mess!! i'm going over every inch of the tractor so I don't have any nasty surprises or breakdowns in the middle of haying season,THE SAME THING SV. IS DOING ON HIS EQUIPMENT, getting ready ahead of time so we minimize the breakdowns and down time when it's time to go. is my equipment a money pit?? well I don't see it that way, my 1961 m5 is a simple rugged reliable tractor that has sat for 20 years and it got me through haying season last year with no breakdowns like sv's 4020 and his 3020, he's rebuilt a #8 jd mower for haying season and it's ready to go. sv has repairs and upgrades he wants to do on his equipment the same as most of us. NOW lets compare the cost of brand new equipment and our old money pits! lets see sv's payments and my payments for our old money pits is $0000./month! and no insurance payments required!! NOW lets compare reliability, as I said I got through haying season with no breakdowns or down time the same as sv did, 2 of my neighbors with brand new equipment didn't do so well, one with a brand new jd. 4wd sat in his field hooked to his new jd. round baler for 3 DAYS with the jd. field mechanic and his laptop plugged into it, got it going just in time to finish baling in the rain! the other neighbor with his new case 4wd was winched onto the deck of the local case dealers truck to haul it back to the dealer ship to get both pto" replaced (both pto's stripped and seized up) locked up the tranny! wonder what that cost! sv like most of us is doing the best he can with what he has and is trying to improve his situation the best he can like most of us, so instead of bashing the man lets just say "that's great news sv. I hope the part time turns into full time and you have a great year" :D
