What would you like to see the tractor manufacturers to make.

[HarryVanderpool]

Self leveling loaders available for all tractor sizes right down to the smallest.
Why do you have to buy a 65 HP tractor to get a self leveling loader?
Ridiculous!

O.K.; fine.
It's worth reading twice I guess.

I always admired the loader Xfaxman built based on a used mower. Some pics here: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/...s-weak-how-check-post4314958.html#post4314958

Another vote for smaller (compared to the New Holland offering) and simpler bi-directional articulated tractors with big tires front and rear. PTO & 3pt at both ends. Loader at cab end.

Wider ag tires for the front 16" wheels on CUTS and with heavier plies. Most who buy a 25-45 HP CUT in 4wd are also getting it with a loader. And 7x16 or 8x16 tires are just too skinny and make big ruts with a loader.

Would also like larger front tires (diameter) offered in the smaller framed tractors. Short tires ride rough.

Better hydraulic hose protection underneath. (I fabbed a skid plate to protect my hoses and filter after a few near misses)

Develop a radiator that dont plug up with crap when brushhogging in the fall:thumbsup:

They used to have that. ... Forgot how to make em I guess. Progress integrated over Time = Zero

I would like to see a heated steering wheel for snowplowing. It's always the fingers that get cold. Also larger capacity hydraulic pumps.

Thanks Mace. For those that haven't seen it, here is the rest of the story: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/customization/272163-fel-toro-groundsmaster-put-together.html

Get rid of the 3ph forever and come up with something easy and standard like a quick hitch.

At least the option of having an auto shutdown in case of "out of limit" condition, for stationary use.

A model with sliding ballast could be a real boon for hill country work.

I'd like to see a small crawler with steal tracks in the 30hp range. A "CUC"compact utility crawler. Small baler, small row crop harvesters, and a small 30hp combine. Or a range of those in a towed models, like manufactured in 1950's. HS

Here's a place that sells compact balers
