Well, I’ve gone and done it:  signed on the dotted line for a new tractor.

It is a 2014 Farmall 65A (same as New Holland Workmaster 65, just different red paint instead of blue).  It is out of state at a different dealer’s lot, so it should be here in a couple of weeks.

For now I’m eagerly awaiting its arrival.  And feeling the pangs of buyer’s remorse.
