I came across a killer deal on a Kubota MX5000 Utility Special with only 240 hours. Figured before I bought it I'd better consult with my local JD dealer, who is a friend, and whose District Manager son lives across the road from me- didn't want the first news of my defection to be his son driving by and seeing me on it. Told him about it, and he smiled and said "Two things- I can't come anywhere close to that deal, and if you decide not to buy it, call me immediately so I can buy it for resale." I think most of the reason for the good price is that its a pretty basic tractor- no remotes (although the hoses to the loader come apart, so it would be easy to add them), no draft control, no shuttle. It has a Hi-Lo + reverse beside the seat for your left hand, with Lo and reverse in a straight line. I use if for loading quite a bit, and I've always had to clutch and shift on my loader tractors, so its not much of a problem.
I find the "Utility Special" designation a bit curious- because the only thing special about the tractor is that its not special at all. As said, very basic, no frills. I think Oliver did the same thing- their "special" tractors were also very basic, with several otherwise standard features deleted, probably so they could get it down to a price point that would satisfy us skinflints.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
