What a beauty, it's a stout and heavy tractor. It moves stuff indeed.

Do you know if the tractor came up from the south, or was it just really well taken care of? She looks really clean, I believe you mentioned she had something like 600 hours? That machine ought to last you a good long while.
I know that it was sold at auction and in the description it said it was a one owner, 623 hour tractor-it has sat outside in a lot for almost two years. The pics look better than it does in real life it is sun faded and needs a good washing and waxing. The cab is very clean and there are no adverse smells in the cab. I believe it came from Pennsylvania. I do think that whoever owned it took care of it and judging from the pics of the auction it was in better shape before it sat outside. We have had a bad storm that rolled through here on Aug. 24th the structure I was going to keep it in, had 4 trees fall on it and I am working on cleaning that area up now. Then I can make repairs to structure and put it under roof.

You know what works good on body parts and painted surfaces. If you wanna shine the tractor up? Use Honda polish, I use it on my tractor and motorcycle for years. Amazon.com

I just thought of something, did you buy this from Rosseel's? If so, I've looked at your tractor a thousand times on TractorHouse! 
I've always liked the look of it, it's a real handsome machine.

I'd say it's a small world, but you're the one from Michigan, I'm the outsider here. 
I'm not surprised that someone else saw and liked the looks of this tractor. I cut and cleaned up 5 cottonwood trees yesterday that were approximately 80 feet tall each. It took me 5 hours to complete. Prior to getting this tractor and grapple, I cleaned up one ornamental pear tree 50 feet tall by hand-I chained the limbs to my bucket. It took as much time for that one tree as it did for those five cottonwood trees and I am not as beat up or tired upon completion.
Just wanted to jump back in here to say that I have put about 120 hours on this tractor from the middle of September 2023 until now. It is a beast of a tractor, Compared to my t2410 new holland (which was a very nice tractor too.) Getting ready for planting vegetables this season. Plenty of work to do in preparation.

It's great to hear you're still happy with your purchase. It's definitely a beast.

If that wasn't the biggest machine TYM produced at the time it must have been close!
TYM made a 90 hp and a 100+ hp tractor and now make a 100+ hp tractor.
I wanted to chime back in and say that I have put just under 200 hours in the last year, on the 2006 T-700 and am happy with how well this tractor keeps on performing. It's not perfect and that's ok! It is a pretty heavy tractor at 6660 pounds bare tractor weight. Plus, another approx. 2000 pounds for the front-end loader. I keep another 800 to 2000 pounds on the three-point year-round.
