100 HP ytractors

[kenmac]

Yep, that Kubots has more HP than the McCormick but light in the arise.. LOL

I went to the guy's website to look at that Kubota M5 111 and the M9960 again and they are no longer on his site. I guess he sold them yesterday.

I've got a full day tomorrow, but I'm going to try to make time to go look at the McCormick and talk with the guy about it. I have no idea of the hrs but like I said. He has it listed for 36 K 2006 Mod.
what ever I buy I will have to make sure I can get the adapter, or what ever it is to accept my Kubota attachments .

Thanks for your input

On the 100 hp and up Most of the ones I've seen and used with loaders had the global fast hitch not the SSQA.
I wish I had gotten the global over the SSQA, I find the global easier and safer to connect and disconnect.

It is amazing how the 7100 and 7200 CIH Magnums are holding there values, we have 3 on the farm and they are nice running and good working machines.

Not sure what that is. I know JD has their system, Kubota and some others use SSQA. I never heard of quickie until I saw one on a McCormick tractor. It's different than the JD and SSQA system.

I just bought a grapple with the SSQA type hook up. so, I would want to be able to use this grapple on the next tractor instead of having different sets of attachments

no matter the brand they are pretty much adaptable to ssqa with an aftermarket attachment or some modifications to one - and agreed the 71/72 series magnums are amazing tractors, no argument around here for that, if a guy could find a good used one at a descent price that will be my next tractor trouble is by the time i get $$ saved up they will be with tons more hours and more used up so it might not make good sense.

since the 7100 series start around 150hp might be a lil overkill here ;-) but still wonderful tractors

I havent adapted my JD loader attachment to SSQA just yet but will do that one of these days when i get caught up on all my other projects

well did you get a chance to check out the mccormick today or have to many other opportunities that took up your day?

 

[kenmac]

sadly, I did not. I knew I had a full day today and was going to try to work it in, but it just didn't work out

I have a guy that is suppose to come look at my yanmar tomorrow around 10am. If he buys it, he may pay me to take it to his place as he has no trailer.
If he doesn't buy, or if he does and I get back in time, I'm going to look at it the McCormick tomorrow ..

Sometimes there just isn't enough time left in the day ! LOL

praying for the sale/delivery - amen on the not enough hours in the day!!!!

if its mean to be it will work out if not, the waiting continues I am like you and try not to get in a rush with this stuff and spend a lot of time on my knees

well, another long day. I sold the yamnar and delivered it for the guy.
Came back home and headed the other direction to check on the McCormick MC . Turns out, he doesn't have it,or a MX he says he has on the lot. They are loaned out to some farmers because their new DPF /DEF tractors are in the shop !

I ask what this MC looks like and he shows me a customer's tractor that is similar to the MC.
All I can say is WOW ! what an azz on that tractor. No wonder it weights 4 K more than a M5 111 Kubota.
I doubt the Kubota could even carry the weight of the rear end on this tractor . It's a beast !

I did look at a new 75 hp cab case tractor he has. No DEF,or DPF on this tractor. Bad part is it's 50K new. And after adding A/C in the mix. it's really only 65 hp, which would only gain me 15 more hp than my 50 non A/C tractor

I can get waaaay more tractor used for less money. Seems like a no brainer.

I may have to look at the MX when it comes back as I really don't know if I need that much AZZ on a tractor like the MC... lol

 

[searcyfarms]

well congrats on the yanmar sale, and yes they will lift a lot but then again what if you need/want to do something you wont be wondering or worried about tackling out of bounds for your tractor - thats funny he has all his used loaned out because the newer is having dpf issues, more of the same ole stuff...........sad............

I remember the cab being roomy from teh ones i sat in at the fair

 

[kenmac]

I don't know if it will lift more than the mx or not. never talked to him about that. Just the rear end on that MC is massive. I really haven't seen a tractor around me with such a massive rear end such as this tractor.
Has a PTO you remove, turn around and re insert for 540 ,or 1000 RPM
I believe he said the mx actually has two PTO shafts sticking out. One for 540 and one for 1000

And he hates the emissions as much as we do. even though he said he has more work in his shop and on the road service truck now, than he ever had before DPF /DEF, and has been in business over 30 yrs
