Sat in the new 75C

[Robert_in_NY]

I went to the dealer today to pick up a couple parts and they had a new 75C there so I had to check it out since I am looking for a tractor to replace the 7710-II and to relieve the TN65 from some of the harder tasks. The 75C is too low on hp but the 95 when it comes out later this year should fit the bill. The cab is great, almost too much room in them. Excellent visibilty out all 4 sides. Controls are laid out well and it has a decent sized tool box. I can definitely see one of these machines parked next to my 45A to keep each other company (currently the 45A only has the Kubota to keep it company in the barn but they haven't been getting along, I think its a language issue).

I'm not positive the total any more. 33 acres of vineyards is the only total I am positive on. Haven't ran the numbers on tillable and hay acres yet since we bought the most recent farm.

Oh I see. We have only 10 acres. Someday I would like to have a few hundred acres, many tillable, woods, a vineyard, and a lake or two. I want to have a use for a nice tractor like that

No, I didn't price it as I'm not in a position to buy right now so I didn't need the temptation. It is the same tractor with a different hood and rear fenders.

Did the dealer come to his senses on the 7710?

Did the dealer come to hus senses on the 7710?

I went to the owner of the dealerships a few months ago, tried to come to an agreement on either selling it to them or buying it back. We couldn't reach an agreement so I agreed to let them sell it and if they have a buyer I would have to approve the price under a certain amount we established. When it sells part of the money goes to paying off a pre-agreed upon amount to the dealer and the other part goes back to me.

Basically, I offered them $8k for the work they did. The lowest they would take was $10k. I just can not see paying more then $8k for it as I am scared if there is any problem with that motor after all this time I will end up with a huge headache. So I decided to cut my losses on it and move on. I had the cash on hand to pay them when I was there but it wasn't meant to be.

I will admit, I had a great conversation with the owner and his son and if they would do something about the local manager I would actually deal with them again. But that is not something they are willing to do (family) and their main store is around 90 minutes away from me so its not like I go by there on a regular basis (once ever 2-3 years). I was actually on my way home from picking up a new PJ dump trailer when I decided to stop in and talk with them.
