I'm a Massey man through and through. There about all I've ever owned. Got an '07 model 451. Had it about 5 years. I have literally spent, more than I paid for it in repairs. I'm not exaggerating, it's been in the shop 8 times since mid summer. Been that way, since I bought it. Needs to go back in early this week. I hate to give up on it, and run it through an auction, but looks like that's what it's coming to. I actually use/need a tractor. I run 85 cows. My little red belly I bought for pleasure, has stepped up, and largely ran this place the last 2 years. I guess I need to get me some good old heavy made American steel, in about the 60 horse range.
