I Still Hate My Tractor II

[kuboman]

Slowing to a crawl on a hill just frustrates me the same as sitting in traffic. Just a colossal waste of my time so I buy as much hp that is available in the size of tractor I need. I guess that's why they make so many models, to keep everyone happy.:thumbsup:

I don't know I have a 3240 the baby of babies with A/C, Cab, loaded tires and a backhoe. Not to mention 400 lbs of mods. By the way it's a 34hp. I never have a problem with power. I have six speeds Yes I may have to use a lower gear sometimes but it does everything I need to do with it.
It really is not as bad as you guys are saying. Drove 5 miles on the road with hills each way last year in High gear with just using the paddle shifter on the hills.
Felt just like an 18 wheeler down shifting on the hills. The air was on, backhoe was on, stereo was on. Can't wait to do it again this year.
Now if I had 5740 I would see the difference, The difference maybe on the 5 mile trip would be I would get there 5 mins faster and may or may not have to use the turtle shifter.

Right now I don't know any better and I'm happy.

My last tractor a B3030 with cab and backhoe a 30hp Never had a power problem with that also.
You have to pick a tractor for your needs. Can't make just 50hp tractors for everyone.

You're right Fred, I forgot, I should probably change my signature to warn others.

If I'd commented on this, I'd have wrote this exact comment. I totally agree. I roaded my Brother's 32HP HST tractor 2 miles once. I hated it the whole time.

I just put auto pilot on, watch a movie and enjoy the ride, I'll get there.

and If it's a long road trip, Did you know with the back window open you can tilt the seat way back, pull over and nap along the way. Can't do that with a big 90hp tractor .

I hate "The Fred's" tractor II, too.
Why is it giving him problems all the time.
