jcg1112 2 #4 Posted May 27, 2012 Ahh! Did not take pics!! It"s still at the dealer. It's a one owner with 355 hrs and he only cut a small yard in the burbs so it only has the 38" deck. wanted a bigger deck but will see how this works out. He traded it in at the original dealer who has all the service records. The dealer went thru the whole tractor - steam cleaned, new belts, blades,filters etc. I saw the work ticket with all they did. I probably paid more than the going price, but at least I know what the history is and I'm familiar with the dealer. It's really clean. It's going to be delivered to our new house sometime next week. paid $1100. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcg1112 2 #7 Posted May 27, 2012 Will do. Can't believe I didn't take pics when we were there - have an I-phone just for these times. Can't wait to get some seat time, even the CFO (wife) is ready to ride and cut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcg1112 2 #9 Posted May 27, 2012 Thanks for all the responses. Really like this forum. This is gonna be a new addiction - already fly RC planes. Too many toys and no where near enough $$. The dealer where I bought my 267 also had a clean 312-8 and 414-8 if I recall correctly. I was concentrating mainly on the 267 since it was hydro and all the gears were intimidating the wife. It's all good though. Now, I could sell some plane stuff for one of the beasts. Hmmm... the horse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jcg1112 2 #15 Posted May 29, 2012 Wow! What a great site. It's nice to know that red is a popular color. Will have the horse delivered this Sat after closing on the new house. It's gonna be kind of lonely in the pole barn, only the blower, chainsaw and weedeater for company. Will post pics then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
