Tractor Sizing GUIDE: Shopping/Sizing A Tractor (Development version)

[jeff9366]

Hello jeff9366, there are tractors in the 90-120 hp range where in 2wd you apply the brakes the tractor automaticly engages 4wd for the duration of the brake application then reverts to 2wd.

I learn something new about tractors almost every day on T-B-N.

Some innovations are discarded after trial.

Do you or any one know how far down the power range this feature goes?

Watched additional videos from Messick's, the high volume Kubota dealer in Pennsylvania, today. I learned the Kubota M6060 (60-horsepower) and M7060 (70-horsepower) models have this feature included in the optional 12-speed transmission models.

Neither the 6-speed nor 8-speed transmission models have this feature, only the 12-speed.

Jeffy,
Time to check your facts. The M 6060 is NOT available with the 12 speed transmission. And what M series tractor is equipped with a SIX speed transmission?

The difference between real experience and parroting false information.

Clicked on the link in the first post and was directed to a web site selling lawn furniture

There are no LINKS in the first post.

There are, but not because you put them there.

TBN appears to be running an adware plugin called Viglink. Not sure if it's intentional, or if it's malware. Viglink examines the content being delivered to browsers and injects links into it. In it's most basic, benign form, Vigilink converts links that weren't expressed as syntactically correct HTML hyperlinks, turning them into function links.

Unfortunately, Viglink also seems to have a spam mode, whereby it injects links into text that were never intended. For example, your "FIRE AWAY" phrase in the first post of the thread is a Vigilink redirect, at least as rendered in my browser.

You not seeing them while others do could be based on any number of variables: Browser, browser settings, security settings, anti-malware software, status here based on posts, etc.

Privacy Badger ensures I never see that kind of stuff.

Girl,
Since the thread seems to be OT for the moment, and I have an adequate supply of lawn furniture, did you receive any moderator feedback about changing your name?


Can't help wondering if "link" manipulation warnings should be worked into the tractor guide at some point.?

Jeff deleted the post referenced by rbstern, not sure why? "Fire Away" perhaps linked to a colorful site?

How many folks clicked the fire away link, and discounted the guide as genuine?

Did not email admin, as I can't decide what my new name should be. GirlHasTractor just sounds dumb.

Girl,

As you think about, something clever will come to mind. Could do a thread seeking suggestions.
How about simply, Mihindra Girl and the tractor model. Or Virginia Girl likes tractors? OK, something will materialize...
