New Tractor

Hey All,

I know you all love new tractor pictures even if they are red instead of blue. Attached is my new Farmall 105U getting put to work for the first time. I put 10 hours on it last weekend rolling abour 40 large bales.

This is the same tractor as the NH T5060 and so far I'm really enjoying it compared to the old JX 85 that I traded on the new 105U.

I'm trying hard to get another blue tractor but the red guys always seem to have better deals.

Enjoy!

Tom, do you ever notice your Case dealer is smiling when you arrive and giving all his salesmen high fives as you drive away?

Very nice stuff. I knew when I saw this was your thread about a new tractor that I was going to be jealous. I was right.

Hi Jim,

I'm not sure, but I do think they sell me their lemons as they know I'll be back for another new one if anything goes wrong. I should have just started with the "better made" versions instead of the "economy" lines from the beginning. They also let me borrow just about any tractor on the lot. I'm guessing so as to entice me to upgrade yet again.

Did I tell you the story of how the NH/CIH mechanic called my JX85 a "Zetor" and that is was junk when I towed it in with 180 hours on it for major repairs.

I'm thinking of trading the Farmall 95 on a T6000 series now. Those things are sweet.

I raise cows just to enjoy baling the hay and trying out new tractors.
