Finally Here

That is one nice looking rig. I just told my wife that someday when we have money again I want to trade mine in for one with a cab. I just need to know when that someday will happen.

Nice! I think you are gonna be happy with that. Your first picture may be an optical illusion, but I'd swear that tractor is taller than it is long. That's one big (tall) cab.

 

[HOUNDSTOOTH]

I believe it's 7'-6" tall, 10'-5" long, and 6'-1" wide. There is way more room inside than I was expecting. There is plenty of head room. I'm 6'-0" tall and there is probably a good 10" above my head. The glass in the back is far back enough to be out of the way. I too am always looking back there.
Thanks for the compliments. I'll get some good pic's and post'em.

So you have room for a 10 gal hat. Congrats! I'll be wishing I had a/c come august.

That is a nice looking tractor. The cab will make it a lot easier to mow when the temp is around 98 and the humidity hits about 80%.

Who is your dealer, if you don't mind naming him?

This is the second tractor I've bought from him. The first was a 97' 1720. I've got an 6' Rhino finishing mower and rotary mower from him also. My brother bought a tc29 (I think thats the right model) from him too.
I plan on getting a sprayer and wood spliter from there soon.

Chip and his crew are top notch in my book! Pleasure doing buisness with'em.

They are good people to deal with. I haven't bought a tractor from them, but get a lot of parts for baler, mower, etc. I bought a KMC disc mower caddy to mount my 616 mower on from them. Do you live in Sumter Co.? I'm from Butler, just about 38 miles up 19 from Americus. There is a good NH dealer over at Perry. Walker-Rhodes Tractor Company.

 

[HOUNDSTOOTH]

Yes. Born and raised right here. I've rode by the Perry dealer. Other than that, don't know much about'em. I have family in Thomaston. I came through Butler just last Tuesday. Glad to hear from somebody so close. I'll be happy when they get the 4 lane done from me to you. It's a nice drive from Butler to Thomaston.

The big, flat level area just South of Butler with the watermelon packing shed and the center-pivot irrigation system on the East side of the road is where I grew up. Actually about a half-mile West of US 19, right there where the "See Rock City" barn used to sit. That area is known as the "Butler Level" or the "Red Level" because it is so flat and the soil is so red in some places. That is where I got my screen name from.
