Just wanted to say, "Hello!" I'm new here, and totally new to the world of tractors...well, not even new to the world of tractors...yet.
I just ordered ordered a brand new John Deere X300 today and if all goes well, the delivery truck will be showing up with it sometime on Wednesday. This will be my first tractor, so obviously I really don't know squat about'em. All I know is that this one has the Kawasaki 17hp motor.
Obviously, I need the tractor for yard-work, but I couldn't help but notice the photos of the suped up lawn tractors behind the salesman's desk. After showing me a few pics of his own tractors, I immediately decided that I wanted to modify my tractor.
My wife was with me during the purchase, and wasn't real thrilled that I want to modify the tractor and we don't even have it yet; understandably so, because I've been talking about how I want to hot-rod a tractor when we get one, and now I've received just about all the encouragement I needed from our salesman.
Anyway, I guess since this is the Intro-thread, I'm supposed to tell a little bit about myself, so here goes...
I love anything with wheels. It doesn't matter what it is. If it has wheels, goes, and stops, I will drive it. It doesn't matter if it's a motorized wheelchair, go-kart, moped, whatever...I will drive it, and I will love it. I have a serious addiction to anything with wheels. I have an even more serious addiction to modifying anything with wheels that I own.
