Tractor
Ford 1710, Ford 5600, NH Workmaster 55
We decided we wanted more plowing ability and better loader capability. So, we went looking at tractors.

Headed up to the NH/Kubota dealer and looked at M5100X and Workmaster 55. Then we headed over to the Massey Ferguson/Kioti dealer and looked at TK55, TK45 and a couple MF in the same HP range.

Kiotis were out. The adjustable steering column just looks like its taylor made for breaking and being wedged and tied in place with baling string.

My wife just didn't like the feel of the Kubota. Too plasticky she said.

The MF and NH were closely matched and she liked features on both, but the MF dealer only had cabbed versions.

We decided to go for the Workmaster 55 with quick connect bucket.

Oh, and since we "saved" all that money on a cab, we decided to plump for this too:

We'll probaby add a sunscreen at some point.

Beautiful tractor. Love the look of those Workmasters. My dealer has one on his lot and I admire it every time I go in. New Holland has without doubt the very best color scheme of any tractor..MF comes in second.
