I currently have a MF 240, a Melroe Bobcat 610 and a Super A with snow blade (in florida, we tend to call them front or mid-mount blades). I also have a Davis backhoe attachment for the Bobcat.
I'm not a mechanic and keep having trouble with the Bobcat. I've paid to have the seals replaced and also paid local dealer to do some work on engine and electrical.
I am tired of so much down time for the Bobcat. I really like it when it runs though. I am considering selling the Massey and the Bobcat to buy one tractor with a frontend loader. Since I have the backhoe attachment, I would like to keep it and use it maybe 2 - 3 times per year. Not using the equipment to earn money, but hate spending my weekend unproductively (downtime).
Other than the usual limitations for using a backhoe attachment, does anyone have any thoughts (good or bad) about this course of action.
Too many fond memories of grandparents with Super As and growing tobacco to give it up. Also, it runs fine and gave no problems once I switched to non-ethanol gas.
