    Default One of My Work Horses

    This was from last Sunday morning. We were racing the storm front that just came through and brought winter back. that baby has a 300 horsepower cummins with a 12 speed powershift transmission. I have pulled literally a house with it. Have not hooked to anything yet that it won't pull. I have pulled out bull dozers with it, semi trucks (loaded), cotton module trucks, Huge fertilizer floaters, and many other tractors and trucks. It will pull this 30 foot disk harrow that is in the pic in road gear on up to 20 mph if I wanted too. It will pull the devil out of hell.CF

    One heck of a nice machine. All you have to do is keep oil changed regular on that N14 cummins and she will wear out the rest of the tractor.

    OH WOW. That must be worth a big penny or two. You must farm a large amount down there. I know some of the boys here in Currituck are in the hundreds. I have an uncle in Ohio the farms just over nine hundred. Has cows also. He is a lover of them big green machines. When I was a little guy my dad And I went to the fair and I walked under one of them tractors. Always did impress me.

    My Dad and I farm 1000 acres. That used to be a good sized farm but not anymore. We are small beans today compared to some of these guys around. A new tractor like that today will run around 400 grand. way to pricey for my pocket book. They used to be priced cheap because they were not utilized for much more than pulling a disk but today they are used for much much more. They were once considered cheap horsepower but not anymore. The tires are 6 feet high and with the high cab, it really helps with visibility. I'll post some pics of my other ponies when we get back out in the field.CF

    sounds like you need a hunting companion & a surveyor
    My wife swears I only do enough surveying to support my hunting & fishing because I'm too busy hunting & fishing !

    What is your soil like? That looks completely unlike newly disked ground around here. Here you see rows from the blades so that a disked field looks like it's been combed and the tire tracks would be almost as clear and sharp as the tires are.
