figo40 0 #1 Posted May 14, 2010 Tomorrow I am going to buy one of these, A 655 or an 800 Both are from the same person, both run, the 655 has a mower deck, the 800 has a dozer blade and no deck. My preference is the older the better, but I also want to grade the gravel drive at my weekend place, and want multiple attachments. My other wheelhores is a 633. The 655 can be had for $200 and the 800 is $295.00 what is your opinion, and why. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

figo40 0 #3 Posted May 14, 2010 Wish I could! that makes the decision easy! but the wife says I can have one or the other, (she thinks I'm selling the633) not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Raider12 13 #4 Posted May 14, 2010 Wish I could! that makes the decision easy! but the wife says I can have one or the other, (she thinks I'm selling the633) not. Yea..... I know the feeling. When I purchased my 520 my wife ask "so.. you are selling the Raider?" My reply "What part of a COLLECTION is having only ONE tractor at a time" Things were quiet for the day or so. I then placed her Longaberger Baskets (all 20 plus) on the kitchen counter. She got over it. PS it's best not to tell the wife everything you know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doubletrouble 10 #5 Posted May 14, 2010 I would offer $400 for both. As far as the wife is concerned, it's easier to beg for forgivness than ask for permission. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is what I always do and it's worked out ok so far. I was actually able to sneak another LawnRanger in that I got for cheap and it has gone unnoticed for two weeks now. I am 99.9% sure I have gottenaway with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baerpath 517 #8 Posted May 14, 2010 Sound simple to me, buy both and then go with Honey I just had to buy one for you too, so we can share a hobby and spend more time together Duane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piecrazy4 0 #9 Posted May 14, 2010 do not do the honey I bought one for you! Because she might want to sell it. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
figo40 0 #10 Posted May 14, 2010 Ok, All great suggestions, but someone beat me to it! I called the guy and he said someone had already bought them both. So I guess I am back on the prowl. I sure would have liked to have gotten the 655 though. Frank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
