FWIW:
1) Farm & Fleet, Tractor Supply, etc., do not carry Hy-Tran !! They do carry some Hydraulic fluid which meets some IH specifications but it won't have the patented moisture suspension capabilities of real Hy-Tran!!
2) This past week, I purchased 5 Gallons of bulk genuine HY-Tran from a local Case/IH dealer for slightly less that $60.00. That's about $3.00 per quart. Given that a Hydrostatic uses about 7 qts per change...
3) IMHO, If you can 't handle $21.00 per tractor (plus the filter), you need a different hobby... like maybe tiddledy-winks or basket weaving....
4) A $100.00 Tractor?? Why don't you try shopping around and price a new equivalent to that "ole Cub Cadet" garden tractor!! When you find those prices begin above the $3000.00 mark, then you'll know exactly why it pays to spend a few dollars take good care of that old "hundred dollar" tractor!!
