just great

I hired a tractor, 2 days ago, it only done 300 hours work before arriving to us, they told me its insurance value is £95,000, great big monster it is.

Its value to me right now £0, its broke , 4x4 clutch problems Evil or Very Mad could be quite a few days in the workshop Banging Head

clever stuff however, A fitter came and plugged a laptop into it within a few minutes the fault was diagnosed, and he reset the computer so we could at least drive the thing out of the field. At work

Around my area it seems to be New Holland that are the farmers favourite.

Passed my test on a New Holland, but have never put it to use. Now drive buses for a living, the company are about to put 7 new ones on the road so this will be fun, always get one that can't finish a shift. 21MY Defender 90 S 3.0 D200

they drive it.

My dog loves tractors and follows me round all day in the hope of a ride, it can even note the different rattles of key rings and runs to the machine I'm getting the key for as soon as I lift it off the hook, I promptly swap the key and go to a different machine Laughing .
if I want the dog to go home I rattle the bobcat skid steer key . it hates that machine. At work
