Tractors
 

The Deere is a buddies, and the New Holland is mine.

biggest tractor we run is case mx255, we also have a old steiger, v6 cat in it.
I'll post some pics of al the equipment we have on the ranch, we I get around to it.
It might take awhile, we've got alot of iron around us.
Nice new holland though!!

is that new holland a 8780 ??? there was one on a farm i use to work at it was a good tractor... very comfortable to drive...and i am very ashamed to admit to it but i liked it better than the JD`s that were on the farm well except for the JD 8760...

Hey, i'm looking to get me one of these 0 radius turn mowers...i have looked at JD and now i need to go look at the Kabota. Tell me how you like it if you would.:p:

take a look at walkers and gravelys, there my two favorite zero turns, the gravely is quite a machine and you can get it with a 27 horse daihatsu turbo diesel

Thats what I'm talkin bout right there! Is Daihatsu any good? I do'nt know anything about them.

i really dont know too much about them, i bet they cant be all that bad

PM babyfat he will know everything about them... he sells em wink wink

we dont baby this machine at all (The ZD28) and it is a work horse!!!! even the thickest grass this sucker cuts it right up!! we have a JohnDeere 455 liquid cooled diesel and its a POS. the Kubotas are a little higher for price but resale is a BONUS!!! these are excellently built machines!! we have the pro heavy dudy deck and its a brute! the front wheels pivit to alow access to the deck and the deck comes off with a couple pins if you ever choose to do so.

The only downside to a zero turn is if you get anywhere near mud STOP! because once one tire spins your up a creek w/o a paddle!!

JD and others are good companies but all seem to be built cheap and are just known for the name. Grasshopper offers a KUBOTA DIESEL in there mowers so that goes to show ya how well these motors run!!

hope this helps!

Scarecrow,

The New Holland is a TS 110. Its a awesome tractor. Its our Silage Chopping tractor. Gotta love that A/C. I also have a Ford 8700 its a total puller. And you couldn't pay me to own John Deere other than a Combine, or Construction Equipment.

hey ian how bout some vids of it in the mud??? :l: :l: :l:

haha it will just sit there and spin, I think the top speed is 8-10mph so it doesnt fling the mud too quickly, I usually have to hook it to the trailer which is hooked to the truck to pull it out.

Ian

does she smoke?

haha not yet, heck its only got around 250hrs on it!..... the B2400 smokes pretty good under a real heavy load

I've run alotta tractors thru the years, all have their good points (some just have more than others). John Deere for row crop tractors and CAT for the big boys.

I found some walkers - nice looking machines - but couldn't find anything on a new Gravely....? :p:

06 DIESEL

Scagg Mowers....
 

who can tell me more about these mowers. I have heard all good so far and they look awsome. I don't need one this big but the idea of a turbo diesel machine to cut my 1.5 acre yard really gives me wood! :sen:

look into hustlers. thats all i run. I have 2 60" and 1 72" One with well over 1000 hours, 800, and 700. transport speed is 15 mowing speed 10. lifetime warranty on deck and frame. Sry to brag my mowers up but I love my machines and swear by them. Did i mention they come in a 34 horse cat?

anyone know where i can rent some decent farm equipment? i got to work my gf stepdads ranch and it needs alot of work. trees pulled out mowed and disked.

If you were close to me you could use ours and Id help ya. Just return the favor.

well i am in centeral cali close to fresno.

Ford tractors have alot of power and they are the best in the buisiness for fuel economy.I have a Ford 9700 we also had a Ford 8700 before we traded it that tractor had 11,000hrs.It ran good to.But we traded it for a Ford Tw-15.Which I love that tractor.

got a 1938 Allis Chalmers Model B. love doin wheelies in second gear. my grandpa owns a 1964 Minniepolis Moline Jet Star 3 that we work to death. it has a loader on it.they also have a Bobcat zero radius lawn mower. its not a diesel but the thing has so much torque from the Kohler engine in it that i can do burnouts on the driveway, the only thing i hate about those is it rips up grass if you turn to fast. very fast. dont know about the warranty

Bobcat zero turn radius mowers hmm never seen one of those.Yeah the B's also had a really slow Reverse gear If I remember correctly.

yeah there kinda slow but i like to go forward not backward

First gear is really slow in the B to.Like .75mph.I always wanted to drive the Ford Select-O-Speed transmission but I never got to as we traded our Ford 5000 for a Ford 7710 Series II MFWD.I was like 6 when we sold the 5000.

the select o speed are cool. a guy in our tractor club owns one. he let me drive it at a work day to pull wagons with. the same guy had a stroke so he is thinking about giving me his 1952 Club Cadet he has in his garage to keep since he knows i have a Allis. i feel bad for the guy, he cant do anything now. its so hard for him to move. but he is very in to ford tractors and has a huge collection

Yeah that is unfortionet.Well that sucks I hate to see a Ford tractor collector go down like that.Some Ford tractors were really collectable to.After all Ford introduced the 3pt hitch with Ferguson but still Ford tractors had it first also Ford introduced the first Powershift in the Select-O-Speed transmission.The tractor industry would never have been the same w/o Ford.Allis introduced the Turbo to the industry though so Thank-you Allis.
