Like JTs barn and grill said. I don’t always buy a tractor cause I need it, I buy it because I want it. Nice tractor and happy for you.

Congratulations Ethan! That 270 has found the perfect home! A 4-150 was my main tillage tractor from 1980 to 2000. But I then went the Versatile route, like it sounds like your 270's previous owners. For that tractor to stay in it's local area and will still be earning it's keep on your farm is heaven. For it and for you. Yeah....I'm jealous 😊 Congratulations

Congratulations on acquiring Elenor, I also bought a tractor I didn't need or really have the cash for a 1959 Canadian built Cockshutt 550 row crop. They were only built for 4 years and low production, Only 2,930 built. Also it fits nicely with my 1959 Oliver 550. Looking forward to seeing it in the field next year!

Awesome man, its it a beautiful machine. Sometimes you just gotta make that crazy purchase for you. I did it last year and after getting over the anxiety of dropping that much on something you just want and do not need, I look back with no regrets. Looking forward to seeing you put her to work. And if you actually do clean it up and redo the paint you will have one of the best looking machines in your area.

i think its important to treat yourself from time to time. she looks like a sweet big ol girl Ethan! i had the same "complex" when i bought back my first tractor a 1971 Massey Ferguson 165 i dident need it as i dont farm. BUT i wanted to treat myself to something nice for once so i bought her back as an early 30th birthday present for myself. looking forward to see the videos on this one in the future! Cheers from Norway :D PS Love youre videos! its cool to see some of the older smaler machines and not just 100k++ machines!

@sethkostur6785Күн бұрын
From the outside looking in, I think you did make a smart business decision. Just like you said you’re not gonna need any more horsepower and with your skill and how well you take care of your equipment that tractor will last you the rest of your life. $20,000 for a 300 hp tractor seems like a awesome deal. You could probably put another 20,000 into her and she would be cherry if not close to it and you still would have a hell of a deal. I know you justify this as something you “wanted” but it wasn’t a bad purchase. I would think it would be very hard to try and find a tractor of that quality for $20,000. Let’s say you have it for 20 years and let’s say you put another 20,000 into it that’s still only $2000 a year. Seems to me like you made a great decision.

Sometimes you just have to do stuff not because it's practical...but because you want it, and dammit it feels good when you do it! Awesome tractor.

Awesome! Looks like a clean one tractor, dean had decals custom made for his 325, he’s probably got the info on them, but I’m sure you talked about that. And I’d like to make a correction the amount of 4-270s for sale. There were actually 4, there was one BigIron here in Nebraska that sold a week and a half ago. But it was non operational, and I had thoughts that this one was that one, but obviously not. Can’t wait to see her in the field!
