my new YM2210!

[Ginormous]

Alright guys, I'm finally posting some pics of my new YM2210 I just bought from Fredricks in AL. They treated me really well, and the tractor runs great. I also threw in a pic of the tractor with our other new addition, the new barn we built early this year. I'll drink to that! :drink:

Wow, that is beautiful! The barn looks terrific too.

I am really interested to hear you review and compare the two machines, maybe with some side by side shots comparing relative sizes, too. It is nice that you will be able to test and compare the same implements in the same place.

Congratulations again on your new machine. I hope it serves you well and reliably, and helps bring happy memories to your family. ( I remember a photograph of a pile of kids in the back of your trailer. :thumbsup

284 -- Yes, lots of kids in need of a wagon ride! :thumbsup:

I will definitely take soem side-by-side pics and post them. I will also give my impressions from the two and their relative merits. One initial thought is that the YM2210 is almost imperceptibly larger than the YM1700. It's a few inches longer, a few inches taller and a few inches wider; but you can't really tell driving it around. The turning radius is almost identical to the YM1700 at about 3 ft... tiny!

I see another difference between the VN tractors like i have and this one. The white on yours is the yanmar off-white or cream, on mine at least and one of the VN inporters its white, rattlecan white. The background behind the decals and the rims.

Also they put brand new regular ag tires on it, what are they R1's" Instead of the older rice tires or R2's? Mine has original brigestone older rice tires on it. Still plenty of tread but not new tires. My fronts are just what they had and are older as well.

So even though you may have paid a bit more than a VN you also have brand new tires as well. Although mine still have 30 years of tread left and even though they have a few cracks are far from the end of servicible life.
