The first couple days I considered my M9540 big. Now I don't at all. I consider it very nimble and frequently use it in tight situations. I think you'll enjoy yours very much. Post some pics and opinions after you get settled in with it. Congrats.

I realized that I enjoyed open station tractors more but winter.... .

Oh I totally understand!!! I work a lot in timber land. I'd have the lights all torn off and the windows busted out...... But the other day when I was brush cutting waterways in 90 degree sunshine I'd have liked a cab a LOT.

Yep
Wind, heat, rain and so on.
For sure cab is safer and more comfortable jus some disconnection feelings

 

[ovrszd]

Very well stated. Few people mention the disconnect feeling. Doing delicate FEL work or even Box Blade work a cab does exactly that, makes ya feel disconnected. Comfortable and entertained listening to the radio,,,,, but disconnected.

During the two days a year here in "Swampeast Missouri" that it's not freezing or burning up with mosquitoes the size of humming birds swarming about, I too miss that feeling of "connection"; rest of the time I'm a happy guy in my cabs.:laughing::thumbsup:

Very descriptive Larry!!!! Heheheheheheh. I'm thinking I need an older 2wd cab AG tractor to brush cut with. My Brother's old 1570 Case is a cab tractor with no AC. It's worse than an open station. Totally cooks you.

Agreed
Guy decide not to sell his M9960 now (maybe in a month so I'm back to square one

 

[ovrszd]

Bummer. Man I hate deals like that. Once I make a decision to do something I want it done now. Hopefully you can find something soon!!!

Richard, there should be some out there, there are a few in barns in my area that no one uses anymore. I think we have a Case 1486 with cab in our barn. Our renters switched over to John Deere several years ago, but kept three of their old tractors for sentimental reasons. There was an old open station IH 686 down there I drove a couple of times pulling my father in law out of the mud.

While I really like the refinement of modern machines, I have an affinity for the old iron.
