CNH NEW MODELS

[Paystar]

Just watching coverage from the Farm Progress Show since I decided on attending local tractor shows instead of going.

Lots of new releases from the CNH twins.

75 horse electric tractors. (No, I don't want one but they look really nice. I love the work light setup on them.)

They also apparently saw all the sales they missed out on in the extremely lucrative sub compact segment the last couple years, so they have their new LS built SCUTS.

And a new Farmall Super M!

There's a new Farmall 25 compact also. I wonder if that is LS based also? It looks different.

Wonder what the cost of 75HP electric is compared to diesel? One selling point for the 25HP electrics, was they weren’t row crop tractors, and you wouldnt be using them for hours each day. Well, the larger the tractor gets, the more likely you will be using it for extended periods…

Haven't seen pricing yet, but bet it will scare you. Says they will run 4 hours and they have a 3 year battery warranty.

I find it odd though, that they come with more lights and heated seats (where you'd want to be saving your battery) yet the diesels don't have them, LOL

I would also want to see replacement cost for batteries before I purchased. With only a 3 year warranty doesn't seem like they have much faith in them.

Im saying $10k plus. The 25hp units they claim are $3k-$5k to replace. Three years isn’t much, what’s Teslas policy? 4 years or 50,000 miles.

How about their NEW CIH Quad track 717? It peaks out at 780 hp...

That would be impressive if it wasn't for the return of Big Bud with C18 Caterpillar power.

But the new Steigers do look really good.

Electric tractor will probably give you a nice electirc bill unless
you have plenty of solar. IMHO the cost of the tractor & battery
replacement isn't worth the money for what you get! Just think
how much fuel you can get for $10K in 4 years you could buy a
new tractor. Diesel fuel at $5 a gal you could buy 2000 gallons
using 240 gallons a month would have 8.33 years of fuel
