McCormicks are back!

I just learned that McCormick has started producing red tractors again. They are based out of England, but are partnering with Vermeer in the US. Bad news is that they are >60 HP. Not much of a backyard tractor.

Here's a <A target="_blank" HREF=http://www.tractorbynet.com/forumfiles/35-182315-McCormickTractors-1024.jpg>link</A> to a picture John Miller III took at Empire Farm Days this past week. Great looking tractors.

Not sure if you guys will get them or not,but they do offer the VF series which are Orchard & Vineyard tractors. They are badge-engineered Landini. I've seen them up here. Might just be a good tractor if you want something in between a cut and full size. Factory cabs with a/c are available also.

The smallest one has 54 engine hp,so it should be around 45 or so at the pto. Biggest one has 93 at the engine,that's a heap of power in such a small package. All of them use Perkins engines.

Well John.....if I take and really push the envelope a bit,I might be able to misconstrue that you might just not be turned off by them,eh?

I do like the looks of the color better on the McCs !!

Brochure states that McC offers 57 V&F series variants. From base, wide,low clearance,long wheel base,cab or rops models
