Had to wait for a swampy wet area to dry out before I could pull out parts of trees left behind by the loggers. The heat and humidity were killers on us mortals but the tractor just did eveything asked of it. The onlyest thing that would have made the job easier, aside from cooler weather might have been a pair of logging tongs. The moral of this feel good story is never underestimate the power of New Holland 33D.

Only thing to make it cooler on days like we have had would be a cab w/AC. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Oh yeah, other than the R4s being USELESS in mud, there is almost nothing my 33d can't do. I pulled a HUGE pasture pine the other day, it had to be 70 feet tall, and at least 2.5 foot across at the stump.. my 20'' bar required hitting it from both sides to fell it..
The 33 had no problem dragging it whole.

Your absolutely right about the R-4's and mud but the 33 is one tough hombre in spite of my selection of rubber. I just wrote the post because to many times we just seem to write about something that went wrong with our tractors and not when something good happens.
