Thats funny! Just kidding man, I like looking at all tractors, and I was raised with all green, so thats what I run. I have never been on a red one, so I wouldent even know if it was better or worse then a Deere.:drinkup

Here is our red tractor. 1991 9250. Has been the flagship of our fleet for many years. Probably going to be downgraded to a cart tractor this fall as we are looking at an STX385HD. The other red piece of equipment we have, while not a tractor, is our 2388 combine.

Ahh, you must be the farmerknowsbest from youtube! Welcome to the forum. I work on a farm down here in illinois so its good to see another farmer on the forum. Couple of questions- Whats the width on the tillage tool that looks to be a cultivator? And explain the homemade looking grading blade? More pics please!!!:drinkup

Indeed I am.

The field cultivator is a 54ft.

The "grader" is a LaSole Land plane built in Quebec Canada. It is probably one of my favourite tillage pieces as it eliminates several passes of the field. We use it after wheat to get rid of the dead furrows in the field. We spread manure, then moldboard plow the field. If I can get on the field before it rains a lot, then I make one pass with the plane and the field is ready to plant. This spring we no-tilled beans into the land planed fields. The one pass with the plane eliminated 2 passes with the cultivator, one pass picking stones and in theory could remove a pass with a roller.

Wow! farming in canada sure is alot different then around here! We are 100% no-till on our farm(beans and corn). I like that setup on the back of that
4wd, espically the way it goes to transport position. We got one of those scraper boxes, that is 20 ft wide, and taking it up our busy roads is no fun! My boss let me take out the 30 ft cultivator this spring hooked to a john deere 4960 with triples to work a field that had been sluged, and man was that fun, I cant imagine how much fun it would be to run a 52 footer!

 

[Burnout]

I as well originally bleed green... There is a reason they haven't changed hands a bunch of times such as other coughredcough manufacturers I can think of.

But if you want an all around pig of a tractor.... you need yourself a 6030!

 

[Bellboy]

What is a Magnum? I've never seen one before.:crying. Show me. else i'm abee tearing.

 

[born2ride]

those machines red or green they are quite large in size!!! two or three passes is all i need with that 52footer.. lol

 

[Bellboy]

I realized what a Magnum is. I see a very clear play on words now.

 

[npelzer]

here is our red machines, havent seen any in here yet, first one is of the tractor we use for rolling, harrowing and pulling the grain cart. Second is the unit that pulls the drill,

 

[npelzer]

here are some pics of my dream tractor, Versatile 535.... mean looking with the big float tires

 

[dirt digger]

i sold mine...here she was loaded up and ready to be taken to her new owner

 

[Deere9670]

Cool pics of that versitile. I hear they make the best 4wd tractors out there! Is that yours with the triples? We used to have a jd 8960 and 8760 both with triples! I take it you roll beans with the first one? Keep posting pics! Dirtdigger, why are you selling your red ride? Looks like some new paint sincce i last seen it!

 

[dirt digger]

yea Deere it got a new paint job this spring and i worked it all summer doing hay and tillage but it just didn't get the use i had hoped for and the IH tranny wasn't anything i liked. I hated have to be stopped to shift gears and the power steering wasn't very fun when backing up wagons...you had to be at atleast 1/2 throttle for the power steering to work...so i put it in a free classified add and had it sold the same week...made $1500 profit on it, told the guy i was firm with the price but would deliver for free

 

[bigblueox]

is that an 856? beauty!

 

[dirt digger]

886...this was before i got the numbers on her
