Dang it man!!! Don't keep us hanging too long, we need to hear the rest of the story. Obviously it pissed you off for the last time, glad to see you stuck with a Massey though.
How did your dealer take the news that you weren't happy? I think we all have had an experience like that. So I'll revise my question to "how do you like your 9870 compared to the John Deere?"
I really don't know. I know I haul hay with the pickup and the trailer and hay usually run around 33 thousand pounds, and it does great with that. and this isn't near that heavy.
