GC1710 TLB over 5 years old with over 800 hours of work, never a breakdown, still has the original battery. Runs with a mower, front loader and backhoe in the summer/spring, front mounted snowblower, rotary broom, and blade in the winter. Some folks will be green :-) with envy, but you have a forever machine on your hands.
I just got my 2022 1723eb with thumb and 60 inch mower deck free shipping 23,300 exactly one week ago and already put 17hours on it working a property my family has in Oregon it’s an amazing tool
I have the same machine without the backhoe. Absolutely love it! I know for my machine the first big service wasn't due until 250 hours. I did it at 55. The previous model year for the same machine called for the first big service at 50 hours. I like doing things early with new equipment. Flushes out any leftover manufacturing debris and i learned a good deal about my machine! Enjoy an excellent tractor!
I sold my john deere 445 with loader - 3point hitch and rear pto.. And got a massey ferguson gc1723. And couldn't be any happier 😌. Bought in September and have had 120 hours of happy
Thanks! I would have bought a 1025 if such would have been available for a comparable price but you're pretty much loader/mower deck only for anything less than 21k
Check out his channel for some John Deere 430 video. You know, we are just stewards of what we have. Whats more important is what we do with what we've been trusted with.
Those arm rests are held by three little screws that are screwed through 1/8" thick plastic on the seat. I was getting onto my tractor yesterday, grabbed the arm rest for support and it snapped, now my arm rest is flapping around. Calling my dealer on Monday, i mean this is ridiculous.
Sorry to hear that. Hope you're OK. On those tractors and mowers, armrests sometimes get in the way more than they help. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I think the deeres are great (probably the best) but being a channel that is still fully self-funded, you have to decide how much that paint is worth. Their parts network is incredible though.
Priced both (as well as Orange) this week and bought the 1723MB. 6k more for green and $4500 more for orange. Add that the red dealer is half the distance from me. Just got to learn the tricks. Never had a bucket much less a Backhoe before!
Whats wrong with massy Ferguson? If it fits your operation or what you need then it's a useful tool and now most brands of equipment are make very closely to other brands such as jonh deere,case,fent
Sorry to disappoint. I've been comparative shopping for 4-5 years and slowly saving all that time to eventually buy a subcompact or compact ttactor. After all that, couldn't find any good reason not to include this one in the search. Thanks for watching.

Awesome, have fun with your machine. The hours roll up quicker than you think.

Where’d you get it from in Oregon? Been looking around for one.

Thanks for the advice! They are beautiful machines. Enjoy yours as well.

Congrats on new tractor. I have an older GC1720 and love it.Great little machines.
Thank you. I was looking at the 1720 as well before the 1723 & 1825 came out.
Thanks for watching!
Congrats on the new tractor! I’m going to miss it!! Look forward to watching your upcoming projects with it.
Thanks for taking care of it so well Neal!

Congrats as well. A 445 with a loader and rear pto would be pretty sweet!
Hey E, congrats on the new family member!
Thank you! He's a cool little kid.
Congrats on the grand baby and the tractor!
Thanks! Looking forward to a larger variety of projects to do now.
@@tractorstrailsandlivingfree Cant wait to see them! Try to keep this one of the creek beds 😂
@@KevinBigg I'll never live it down 😀 it is so wet on the ground right now that i might not get to play with it for a bit.
@@tractorstrailsandlivingfree Same here in NE Indiana. Its been a great spring for getting gravel driveways into shape though!
It is a nice looking rig!! A little jealous but super stoked for you!! Just wish it was green and not red. Congrats on the grandson!!
Thanks! I would have bought a 1025 if such would have been available for a comparable price but you're pretty much loader/mower deck only for anything less than 21k
@@tractorstrailsandlivingfree yes I know they are crazy expensive right now even on the used side!
@@LivingOutHere yes, thats the market these days. Like I said, it was a deal I couldn't pass up.
Ditto on Living Out Here Post!! 😜

can i ask how much you paid for it ??? im looking to buy same one over kubota bx23s
I bought mine used but nearly new (less than 10 hours) private sale. If I recall correctly, I believe I paid 20k or 21k for it
@@tractorstrailsandlivingfree thanks ! I found one but 8 hours away lol!

FloridaDeere Did a funny video about becoming « monetized ». If you haven’t watched it you should.
