:thanku: D-Dogg for directing me to the right piece of equipment, I found a 1991 JD 318 in Maryland that was in outstanding shape with 572 hours on it. Took it for a spin and was hooked. I paid $2200 for it, maybe a bit high but I don't think so. There are a few dents and scrapes, but it was surprisingly good shape.

:drunkie:

So much for the box store mowers! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!

I have to dig my camera out and take other pics but this is one that the seller sent me. Thanks again for all the help and thank you D-Dogg!

Glad I could help!

I'll probably be on your wife's hit list since you'll be spending so much time with your new girl!

I agree, nice tractor, and I dont think you over paid for the shape and condition its in, looks as though the previous owner took VERY good care of it. You have yourself a good one, congrats on the buy!

Congratulations! On my way to pick up a JD 316k to day. Not nearly as nice as yours though!
