5075M has arrived....mostly good news, a little bad.....

She's at the dealership!! Gonna get the loader and accessories on in the next couple days, which is badly timed with a trip to LV this weekend.....she'll be home a the ranch next Tuesday though!! I got the bigger tires on it, and it looks really good. I have 4 nice LEDs, from superbrite, waiting for it, along with a couple of nice RAMmount swinging cup holders to keep my flail mowing MGD either in the bottle, or in my belly. Loader, loader suspension, right fender 3pt controls, oil drip capture system, front fenders, all going on at dealership. I took it for a little drive today, and it's damn nice!! Turns good and tight, like the powershift, can't wait to put her to work.

THE GOOD:

I got one of the last, if not THE last, non tier-4 emissions 5075's. It seem that my choice to go with the '75 over the '85 or bigger has spared me the T4 emissions BS, as JD didn't have to meet them for 75hp and under until August or 20th, 2014 - ish. A 5085M would've meant a tier 4 for sure, and a 5075M after August 20 would have been the same - take THAT Kenny and Arlen....... I'm an enviro-terrorist I know, but no DPF to deal with......

THE BAD:

It doesn't come with the new starship Enterprise style lights and hood. Pete (salesguy/buddy) left just a little bit of poop in his pants this afternoon over this issue, as he knows I'm pretty particular, especially on an $80k purchase. In all honesty, I'd be pretty upset if it wasn't for the GOOD mentioned above - cause no DPF's or regen sounds REALLY GOOD to me!!!

I think all other options are the same.

Anyone have an opinion?

-J.
