    L3800 now, Going Bigger...

    When buying anything from trucks to tractors it's always been my train of thought if you don't get exactly what you want ( FL , color, HP, upgrades) it's not a good deal so stick to your guns and buy what you want and nothing less. Good luck on your hunt for a tractor.
