Just a different color scheme.

Took delivery today. Very happy so far. The operational experience is significantly more comfortable than in my ROPS tractor. Can't wait to get back at it tomorrow morning

I see you also have the factory 3rd function diverter installed. No idea what CNH was thinking with that 2 male FF connectors? Mine is the same. And even a year in I don’t know what the 2nd joystick button on the diverter does….

Oh I’m just being obsessive lol. My last tractor got so dirty, I’m determined to keep the grit and grime out of the crevices of this one. At these prices, it needs to last a very long time. A paintbrush makes a pretty good duster.

What kind of tractor did you get? When does it get here?

That's what I used in my dump trucks and equipment. A paint brush is perfect for dusting.

Nice tractor! Back before I bought my first Kubota, I really wanted a New Holland when they were Shibaura built. I went to every New Holland dealer in a 12 hour radius of me in Ontario Canada and one in Michigan and I couldn't get one salesman to show any interest in selling me one???? So I ended up orange.

Seems like all the New Holland and Case IH dealers up here were only interested in talking to you if you were a big AG customer.

I ordered a Massey Ferguson 4707 back in November. They said it would be a few months, but I didn't expect it to take this long.

I'll probably start out super crazy on keeping it clean too.

With quite a few tractor lots full in East Texas you should be able to drive out with a cab tractor today. I know the New Holland Tractor in Texarkana is loaded with NH and Mahindra.

Good eye. Grapple is on order and should be here in 3-4 weeks

I realize those are built by LS, but what make of engine is in them?

Now that you have all that power, it's time to start looking at bigger mowers!!!! I had a 6 foot mower that I used behind my 37hp tractor, but when I bought my 70hp tractor, I quickly took on some more debt and bought a 12 foot batwing. For me, that combination has been amazing!!!

Let me know what you do to make it work. I tried to figure out adapters or just changing out one male FF for a female FF. But no luck on sticking with parts that match the existing.

Not sure they are made by LS. 99% certain they are made by Case Industrial In Italy. Engine is Fiat.

Many of the smaller Boomer SCUTs and CUTs are made by LS. The larger UT are made somewhere else. I know at least some are made in Turkey. They are Fiat.

I need to do this. Believe it or not all i have is a 4’ mower. I’ve had larger mowers in the past, but this one is a toy left over from my much smaller tractor. Most riding lawnmowers are bigger, lol. I’m thinking 8’ is the sweet spot for me, since mowing is a secondary job for us, and I don’t want to spend all that money. We are a bulb and berry farm, and right now i need to put my money on tillage. I’m looking at about $15K there for either a tiller, power harrow, or spader; I haven’t decided yet, but need to upgrade from what we’ve got now. I’ve also got $19K is bed-making and transplanting equipment coming next Monday. It all adds up FAST. I’m tempted by a flail mower from time to time. Those batwings are sweet though.

Thanks. I just looked at pics and saw the VIN plate with made in Turkey. So I guess these are real CNH units.
I wasn't sure where the LS cut off point was.

Yes Turkey not Italy, my bucket says made in Italy on it. My VIN tag says made in Turkey!
