Me too! ---now its back to relying on the ole New-Holland 781 for winter, which is o.k. cept the Deutz diesel is hard to start when its really cold. --- too much stiff stuff for the little starter to spin over fast enough to go. I can start it o.k. by using a salamander stuck under the back of it for a half hour in the shed. ---not a fast easy job but it works so IF it comes down to it I still have a way out! lol!
Kinda got used to the little guy and do like it.---even starting to get the hang of hand controls! lol! For as small as it is you can do serious work with it. also shorter wheelbase dont dig up the ground as bad as the NH does, they are a long wheelbase and root like a hog when you turn but will lift amazing heavy loads!
Life goes on!!! LOL!!!!
