OK - maybe I"m a little too "fussy" about this... I take care of my stuff. I use it, but don"t abuse it! I change oil, filter and fluids and fix things when the need to be fixed - never let it go. If you do, pretty soon you have major problems. The guys across the road has a 666. I love that tractor. He"s had it about 5 years and has NEVER ONCE changed the oil, let alone anything else! Wires hang down from the alternator, and he moans "cause he has to charge the battery. Tank is full of rust... that kinda stuff just drives me crazy!! That tractor could really be a nice machine if he"d put forth a little effort. I"ve offerred to buy it, but he won"t sell. (Really, more of a rescue mission!) I think he should be hog-tied and beaten - but it"s his stuff. Nice NH baler he leaves out in the rain, and on, and on, and on... Know anybody like this??
