Tractor
New Holland T5070
Ok, so I I've finally found my 'forever' tractor... I started with a CCY Ex2900, loved it but it proved too small. Then came the CCY Ex450. Nice machine, but the loader wasn't as stout as I'd hoped. Then came along the CCY Lx450... Amazing machine, really loved it and the loader was a beast. Alas, it also proved too small for what I was getting in to. Ok, so on to a Kubota M6040. Nice machine, good size, and so on. As nice as the M6040 is, it just didn't click with me. If you're still with me, here's where it gets good! Stopped by my local New Holland dealer last Sunday because something caught my eye as I drove by. Upon closer inspection, there sat a beautiful, blue T4.75 PowerStar... I climbed up into the cab and everything just felt right. All said and done, on Monday I drove it around and played with it a bit. On Tuesday, I found myself ordering one. I can say nothing bad about my previous tractors, only that this one just clicked! Gonna be a a long wait...

Congrats on the new machine!

After looking at the New Holland website, it sure does look like a stout machine!

Did you get a cab?

Yessir, it'll be my first cab tractor.

That will be one great tractor. I've always said my next tractor will have a cab (though I've said that through 4 next tractors) but I really think I'll make it happen this time.

Congrats:drink:

That is one darn good tractor! I was looking at that one before I went with the JD4520. Unfortunately that beast was too big for my property and barn. Congrats! You will like using it.

yeah, the whole 'forever' tractor thing was kind of tongue in cheek, since I've been through a couple tractors recently...

Nice! :thumbsup:

If you are like me and some of my buds the forever thing sounds to me like more of a sales pitch to the wife! :D Whether it really turns out to be or not it will do for now until...oh look honey I really need this! :laughing:

Bit of plowing, planting and haying. Snow removal, too... And heck, anything else I can think of!

Thanks, me too. Dealer said it could be as late as May, apparently they're moving pretty quick. That's what I get for wanting options that aren't in the one on the lot...

Well folks, looks like my wait is almost over... My powerstar is scheduled to arrive at my dealer's lot on Tuesday! I'll keep you posted, and pics will be forthcoming.
