I just found this forum today while looking up some data about my ML106 loader. I am a retired railroader, now living in Bardstown Kentucky. I bought a Mahindra 2816 last year to get our 5 acre property in order, as it was a hay field that is so rough that I thought my JD Model B would tip over while mowing it the first time.
My current project is to re-grade the ditches so I can mow them, reduce some of the ridges to a flatter profile for the same reason , redirect a small creek so that it flows better, and then replant grass where I created bald spots. I am working on a total of about a half acre, spread out over the back third of the property in small to medium size patches.
I collect antique equipment of all types, including military vehicles. I just completed restoring a 1945 Studebaker M29C Weasel. A Weasel is a cargo vehicle that has tracks and is light enough that it floats in about 3 feet of water. Check it out at my web site.
