#1 reason is the transmission.

Why the trans , which does it have . The 3120 dyna shift was one of the best tractors MF ever made . I had a 3080 datatronic with a 32 speed ..now that was a pile of junk , The 16 speeds were a lot better !

The 32 speed. You are right the 16 speed is alot better. If it had that I wouldn't hate it, it would just be my least favorite on the farm.

Still a fantastic tractor to drive and i don't thaink that cab has ever been beaten for a place to spend 18 hours ? We actually had 2 x 32 speeds and changed them both for 16's eventually...should've done it sonner .

You can't be serious. I could maybe drive that thing for the first 18 hour day but if I had to do it the second day I think I would be looking for a rope and a tree.

Seriously, I would rather drive a Deere of that vintage.

Two.
1964 Fordson Dexta
2009 Kubota L3400

That, of course, is unless I count my "tractors" like some of my neighbors... Craftsman Tractor, Toro Tractor, etc. They're so funny. They seem to think that it ads some character when they refer to their lawn mower as a "tractor". I suppose that's why the manufacturers are pushing that tag?

So, your question begs the answer as to what exactly consitutes as a "tractor".

JD B, Oliver 60, Oliver 77, MF 180, MF 265, Hesston-Fiat 980, Hesston-Fiat 1180DT, IHC Farmall 40.

I still have the JD B and the IHC Farmall 40. I grew up on the John Deere and am retiring with the Farmall 40. The rest were farming in between.

Vladimirec T-16 and T-25 was the start.
T-16 sold.
Then came VTZ 2048A
and Belarus 820.

So currently have T-25, Vtz 2048, Belarus 820.

In the mean time had some western ones, but part prices where so high i could not keep them.
Valtra, Zetor, LKT, DFU. Those are all sold, and darn i em happy that i manage to sell em :D
Maybe the DFU could had been usefull... but not the others.

XTZ t-150 Kirovetz is the next on the wish list, along with Dutra Ue 28.


-> I do not have a farm. I work in the field of forestry only.

That sounds like a farmer's collection. My dad started farming in 1950 with an Allis-Chalmers WC and a John Deere B crawler. We bought a bigger and flatter farm in '61, so he sold the John Deere and bought a Ford 600, which wasn't enough tractor. Traded that in on an AC D-17, which he used for several years, then swapped it for an AC 175. Dad is gone now, but mom still has his tractor. Everything is rented except for 5 acres, and the 175 makes short work of mowing 5 acres. It hardly gets warmed up.

I got by for years just borrowing Dad's tractor and implements, until I moved 200 miles away. I only have about 15 acres flat enough to run a tractor on, the rest is in timber, so I bought a little Kubota L3130. Interestingly, it has just about the same drawbar horsepower as the old WC. I saved the WC implements from the scrap yard, and have pull type 2-bottom plow, cover crop disc, harrows and rollers (they call them cultipackers nowadays).
