Husker Harvest Days

[IMCA38]

Conspicous by their absence were Kubota, Kioti, and Mahindra. Probably due to the fact that those companies don't have a really big ag presence. I apologize to the "green" fans in here, the JD factory rep was such a talkative guy, that I walked off without remembering to snap a picture. JD had a huge display complete with tractors, implements, Gators, industrial equipment, etc. I did manage to grab this pic of a JD 3320 (I think) with an aftermarket BH attached at another display.

There were literally dozens of ATV's and utility vehicles on display. Again, all of the major players (Honda, Suzuki, Polaris, Arctic Cat, Kawasaki, etc.) had factory backed displays. Here are some of Yamaha's offerings.

Here is a Tony Stewart limited edition ATV from Arctic Cat. For some reason, racing and motorsports get major exposure here. Dodge, Toyota, and Ford all had big motorsports displays. There were also some other race cars, pulling tractors, monster trucks, etc at various places.

Speaking of pulling tractors, check this out...
A 4x4 pulling tractor powered by a stock 16hp Briggs engine. This was designed and built by the ag engineering department and the University of Nebraska. They compete in pulls against other colleges and universities. Supposedly, this thing will pull close to 4,000 lbs which is about five times it's own weight!

Good pics, thanks for posting Todd. Looks a lot like the Midwest Farm Progress show I was at last week. I suspect most of the displays were just moved from one to the other. Interesting that Kubota wasn't there. They had a huge display where I was. The only big name CUT manufacturer not at Midwest was Kioti.

Nothing like wandering around the big stuff, eh?

IMCA38,
I'm sooo jealous. When they have an "Ag Expo" down here, they display like "it was right out of their bank account".
Cheesy 3-4 tractor displays, etc. But, they do display more pickups than that. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

What do you think of the new "mega" model in the background? )</font>

Personally, I believe that NH is full of air for that model. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
