Must Tractor ROPS Be So High?

[bigtiller]

I'm going to build a pole shed for my new Kioti and am waiting for it to get here so I can get an exact measurement on the height off the ground. I was just gonna build it 8 ft off the ground but thinking that might not be high enough. I'm curious if it will fit into the barn, I'd hate to have to fold it down every time I have to drive through the barn...
I am not going to take the listed measurements as fact, I want to see it in person....

The same here.
I am dealing on a tractor and I told the guy I won't give you a dime for it until it is parked inside my heated & attached garage.

You trading off your 2720?

No, it's still in good shape but I did decide that life would be easier if I had 2 tractors. I will keep the loader on the 2720 with the pallet forks. There are a lot of times they would come in handy.

I really like your 2720. If I last long enough to wear out my old 2210 that's the route I'm going.

What are you buying, if you don't mind telling me? We'll need a thread with pictures of course!!!

Supply chain issues are the cause. When OEM materials are not available, they use unobtainium

That particular model seem higher than its peers. Kind of like Yogi Bear ...

And also allow enough extra in case you want to add a canopy. Go 9’ or even 10’ on the door.

I have the old style 2720, it will be 10 years old this coming fall and has less than 500 hours on it now. The after market Cozy Cab is a delight to have in this weather. But the new ones are getting pricey so I decided to jump up to the 3 series. An integrated cab isn't much more than an after market cab after I pay someone to bolt it on.

I spent a week or so, e-mailing the newly hired salesman in early December and have a tentative agreement for a Deere 3039R with a cab, air seat, top n tilt, fenders, etc. It MAY be shipped April 15. There may be a few obstacles to work around for that to happen.
