Lucerne, How do you like that 110. If they were selling them in 2000 when I bought my 4700 I would have got one of those instead. I just did a commercial for the Ellsworth/Bangor dealership where I'm hanging off the side of the 110 and saying "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" and I look pretty stupid too.

All of are trailer floors are Red Oak, but then our horses are Belgians (draft horses) and the corks in their shoes would shred a softwood floor in no time flat if it wasn't as tough as nails.
Maybe light horses aren't as tough on floors as their bigger cousins.
Best of luck.

Floor board treatments
This is my second 110. The first one broke down 4 times in 12 hours. I told them thats it, come get it. They gave me a few days to calm down and offered me a better deal to take another. As you see I did, it broke in 3 hours. Been fine for the last 100 hrs.I like the power of the hoe for it's size and what the loader will lift. I have dug out and moved some large boulders,as I'm sure you know, Lucerne is made of bolders. It operates like a skid steer, very quick and agile,the front actually will slide sideways when going from forward to reverse, I've never used the brake. I also like how you can move the machine from the backhoe with the creep controll with two fingers.The down side is the dealers. All the JD dealers I have been to, know nothing about machines and sell full retail from the book, kinda like the new Harley Davidson dealers. Every time I go in for something I check their knowlege. The front diff takes hydro 20 low visc oil. So when I went in to get some I asked what do I put in my 110 front axle, he grabbed a bottle of 90 weight gear oil and said this is what it takes, are you sure?? yup, can you look it up? ok........hmmmm!!! guess I'm wrong. I have done this several times on different things. I like Union Farm Equipment, good old boys, from farm country, they know their equipment and implememts, if they don't have an answer they say let me find out. They have good equipment too, Kubota and New Holland. I bought my machine in Union at Hammond tractor, across the street, $6000. less then local dealers. Just did a job on the Hog Bay road. I lived on 182 in Franklin, last house on the left before the cemetary, my dad bought it in 1968 for $4500.and fixed it up.
