Well, I finally found one. I picked up this 1987 JD 318 with heated Cozy cab, 47" snowblower, 50" mower, weights and chains, work lights. It has 928 hours on it.

Can't wait to get the mower mounted and start mowing! The grass is getting tall.

Nice machine. That snowblower is going to be worth its weight in gold come winter.

Looks like you have a really nice place in the poplar there.

Nice looking machine and extras!!! You northern folk sure have a lot of snow to clear. It's rare to see a setup like that here in the deep south.

Thanks! Just finishing up our log home in northern MN, near the Canadian border. There'll be lots of work for my new tractor.
