New horse in the family

[Wheelie again 158]

Hi friends it has been a while since I have been around sorry about that. Last weekend I spent some time chasing down a lead on a new horse for the stable. Well I got it the tractor followed me home Sunday and I'm already loving it. The new machine is a 310-8 with a new battery it roared back to life and purrs like a kitten it has a 37 inch SD deck witch I'm very excited to try out never owned on before take a look at it tell me what you think I paid 300$ just the way it sits

Sorry only one pic here's another

Very nice find, and a good price

I'm a 310 guy myself. That's a sweet tractor. You've even got the horns on the back for the leaf bagger.  Their a good tractor but if you get her stuck I use the horns to lift her out of the hole.

Great buy. Have fun./

Good, great purchase but, curious. Sounds like a repeated story 'round here, "the tractor followed me home".

What did you use for bait? Does the Ms. buy your story?

Looks like you got a real good deal on that.  I'da pulled the trigger on that one!

Thank you for all the great replies and advice. Tankman I will tell you the story on this one. It started last summer when the wife decided she would like to help me mowing the lawn and get some sun and I was excited thinking watch the wife mow in a bikini and get a wheel horse for her to use. That is when she told me she wounldnt use a wheel horse so we ended up with a MTD junk special. Well after one summer ofLove that mtd she decided she wanted a horse. That is how i got the 310

Years ago, same story with my wife. Got rid of a nice Craftsman ridin' mower and set her up with a Horse 36" RD deck and Parker sweeper.

When I was done work, lawns were always mowed and swept. A great combo they were! 

 

The boys were growing up, never any snow on my driveway.

 

One day a neighbor said, "I don't want to get involved but, when you're not home your boys are driving your tractors up 'n down the road." I said, "So?" and walked.

The boys now in their 40's drive their own Horses.

I just wanted to know if you were wearing a mask when you  stole that little horse  because one like that around here would be about 3 times that. Nice  find  you won't be sorry about that purchase.
