Today is "T" day!!!!!!!!!

Today is \"T\" day!!!!!!!!!

Today is the day they deliver my new B7500! I'm so excited, I feel like a kid in a candy shop!!!!

The dealer I bought through didn't have an HSD in stock, so he had to go to the warehouse in Stockton to get it. That was (apparently) a major hassle, as the warehouse only has 3 bays to load trucks from. There are so many dealers getting so many tractors/implements through this one warehouse, that the normal "wait" is about two weeks! He ended up pleading with the warehouse manager to allow him to come down with one little truck to load my tractor and a couple other attachments. Got it done, but he was amazed at the zoo at the warehouse. Said trucks were lined up 10 deep in the street waiting their turn to get up to the loading dock.

Anyway, the tractor is being assembled complete with a Gearmore T&T kit. So when I get it, I plan on borrowing my neighbors digital camera so I can upload the T&T setup here (you listening Bird?).

Just in the nick of time too. A major storm is hitting the Bay Area as I type this, so I will be happy to do a little R&R on our gravel road tomorrow (or maybe tonight!!!!).

Sitting on pins and needles,

GlueGuy

Man, do I envy you! Vermont was hit with a pretty good freezing rain today, so all roads are slick with ice. And since my new L3010 is coming from North Carolina, the trucker is sure to drive slowly if a snowflake hits the windshield! Enjoy, and get down off that 7500 long enough to post a couple of pics.

Congratulations, GlueGuy! I'm sure you'll enjoy that tractor, and I'm looking forward to seeing the pictures and how your T&T is done.

Glue Guy,

Christmas in February! Congrats and enjoy. We just received 7 inches of fresh white stuff here in NW MO. Guess what I'm doing tonight! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Re: Today is "T" day!!!!!!!!!

Sounds great! Hope you get yourself a good gully washer so you "have" /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif to fix the drive!

Like others, I am eager to see the T&T kit photos. But, from the amount of "fun" Bird is having and factoring in his greater level of Hydro-knowledge than mine, I wonder if that dealer price is so bad after all.../w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif In fact, it's starting to sound pretty good!

Have a safe and fun time on that mean machine /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif.

OK, I'll bite, what's a T&T Kit?? T&A I'm familiar with, T&T???

Also, congratulations on a great machine. Hope you're having fun with your new toy.

Re: Today is \"T\" day!!!!!!!!!

Todd, T&T is either "Top 'N Tilt" or "Tip 'N Tilt" which means replacing the manually adjustable 3-point hitch top link and side link(s) with hydraulic cylinders so you can adjust the tilt of blades (or other implements) front to back and side to side from the driver's seat.
