I am new to the forum and have learned a lot in a short time. After doing lots of reading, I placed an order today for a 1026R, H120, 647 Tiller, 7 Iron 60 MMM and a 14 bushel Power Flow.
Now, I will just have to continue reading and learning from others here. The hardest part is going to be the wait!
Congrats! I really think you are going to love the 1026R. Make sure to grab plenty of photos and ask all the questions you can think of; the other owners love to answer them here.
I am waiting with you. Mine is sitting at the dealership with a loader and backhoe on it but I am waiting for a 60" deck to come in. Could have brought it home, but didn't want to take it back to get the deck installed. I am starting to wish I had gone ahead and took it home. Still a week or more out for the deck and the suspense it starting to kill me!:slap-yourself-emoti
when I bought mine, I only had to wait over night and that was too long.:boredom: But the wait will be worth it when it arrives.
May all of your seat time be good times!:drinks:
Wow! Thanks everyone for the kind words of encouragement. I will be looking for things to buy while I wait on my tractor to arrive. There is just so much to look at and decide. That should keep my me dreaming of the day I will be able to put it to work. So far the only thing for sure I have decided on Ken's Bolt on Grab Hooks...looks like the this is a no brainer...enables you to do so much for so little cost. Still looking into which hitch. So many options to think about, along with not really sure what all I will need or use it for other except pulling the broadcast spreader, cart, or lawn roller. Omni and Heavy Hitch both look good and seem to fit my needs. Also will be looking into either a lawn rack or box blade. I will be redoing the yard around my house and not sure which I will get the most out of. My ground is heavily compacted and I plan on tilling, leveling the property and reseeding.
