Baling equipment Purchase

[bigbull338]

thats a great report on your hay equipment.but i wouldve kept the MX5100 for a rake tractor an hay moving tractor.an bought 2 7040 like you did.that way your hay equipment would pretty much stay hooked up all the time.

Well trade went a little different than planned, I decided on the m 9960 12 speed, cast wheels, economy 540/540E pot runs 2200 rpm @89 Hp in regular mode

M9960 Nice upgrade... We like pics...
I run two M7040's around the place and have also been happy with the Vermeer REBEL5410 baler and I cut with a Vicon CM2400 cutter(cuts really nice,they need to come out with the quick clip like vermeer cutters an it would be perfect)....

I will be posting pic's as soon as I get it home. It should be ready for pic up around Thursday, installing all the options and the FEL. I hope I will be happy with the Radial tires, I am worried they might not pull as well as the Bias Ag tires. Dealer told me the radials pull better, last longer and ride smoother , cast iron rims and radial tires was a 2700.00 upgrade, economy pto was 1500.00 not sure if I ever will pick up 7500 lbs with the 3 point lift , that upgrade comes standard with the 12 speed tranny. Radio and rear wiper and installation was added at no charge. I was able to get an added 4500.00 in total rebates for loyalty program I just received in the mail. I thought my 7040 has a nice cab layout , they really did a nice job with the 9960. But it makes me want to change the front tires on my 7040 I would love to have a little wider tire on the front.

That is a good looking Tractor what did you do with the front wheels I know that is not the stock setup! I like it.
