T574H is ready

[Torvy]

I paid for my new T574H today. Now I just need to get it delivered.

No idea what customization you plan, but I highly recommend a canopy.

For sun or for falling limbs and such? I have a covered parking spot for it. My concern with a canopy is catching it on low hanging limbs. I basically have a small forest in which to work.

 

[2manyrocks]

Just to keep the sun off you. But if you are going to be working in the woods in the shade, not needed so much and tree limbs could be a problem anyway.

 

[Torvy]

Definitely a potential concern. Me and the Sun have a long history of animosity. Fortunately, I am a morning person, so 90% of the outdoor work I do happens before 10am. Mrs. T is the opposite, but her skin tolerates the sun.

It's getting closer and closer, that must make you feel pretty good! It's been a looong journey.

6 weeks from now I will be retired and within another 6 weeks or less of moving into our place full time. We are about a full year behind schedule thanks to things outside of local control. Yes, it has been a long time.

 

[LS Tractor Owner]

Congratulations on a fine machine! Hope your retirement goes well too!

my 494 runs like a champ so I imagine that will too. I've got a mind that TYM understates their power a bit the way mine goes....

 

[Torvy]

It should be delivered on Saturday. Hoping for a mostly dry day.

Looks like they borrowed the light bar/speaker setup from the T25... those lights spin around and are very useful for lighting up behind you. Pointing forward, they tend to blind you.

Although, they look like they are mounted a little lower than my T25, so it might not be so bad.

I saw that; I wonder if the speakers are set up?

Awesome to be getting a new tractor.

I am betting someone is getting some seat time on a new tractor right about now! Congratulations Torvy!

Tractor was there an hour early. We are just sitting down to eat some lunch. Moved some dirt and used the loader to lift boxes up to our loft. Only problem so far is inexperienced operator trying to remove the bucket. We worked around the problem for now. Levers moved fine, just couldn't get it to detach. After lunch I'll take a picture of it in the shop. We'll keep it there until we are there full time.

Those are impressive little machines. Tony's Tractor Adventures just got one to test
