MY new LS P 7010

[gregsm33]

I also had a similar thing occur to me when I was shopping for my tractor too. New Holland dealer did not even call me back with a quote for tractor after I told him what I wanted. Been 11 months now. As soon as I mentioned LS tractor salesman kind of gave me cold shoulder as these 2 dealers in my area are having a feud for some time now.

Something worth mentioning is that 2009 New Holland 70 hp also has the same Iveco 4 cylinder diesel as the LS 7010.

Those LS look really nice. If you'd allow what might seem to be a rather odd question, but a sincere one.

The LS blue color. Is it New Holland/Ford type blue? Or is it a greener, lighter blue? It is very difficult to tell from internet photos color renderings.

which part of nb are you from.I'm from moncton

The shade of paint seems to be a touch lighter than NH, but I have had people mistaken the tractor for NH a couple times. It is a very nice looking and operating tractor.

I'm from Miramichi, NB, Anxiously awaiting for snow so I can use blower, my driveway is about 450 feet long. I used it a total of maybe 1.5 hours last winter and only couple inches of snow.

That is great service. You should put this on as a separate topic under owning and operating and ask the question" Does other brand dealers provide the same service."

Hey Gregg is that a giant rock in your FEL bucket in your Avatar. Looks bigger than mine. I may have to look for something larger, but I will have to load the rear tires first.

Yes Gary, that is one of a few big rocks I dug out of my berry fields. I had bush hog on for weight in that particular picture.

I am thrilled with the operation of the loader on this tractor, I will be making or purchasing a set of cutting teeth for bucket since I have shale rock on my property that I will be needing next summer.

On another note, I used this tractor to clear 5 acres of grown up fields this summer using my 72 inch Land Pride bush hog, and the tractor performed wonderfully. I really jammed the wood through this, regularly shoving over 4 inch diameter trees though it. The bush hog got a pretty good beating as a few welds cracked on it that I had to fix. The amount and location of welds isn't that great on the new Land Pride bush hogs, but that's another story.




Now I'm Just waiting for snow to come now and ground to freeze so I can have more seat time.

I have a small job waiting on me when I get back to the states. My Brother in law got a dozer to clear a new fence line where we can re-establish the correct land line and the dozer pushed all the trees out into the pasture. I guess I will try to push them up into some large piles and separate out the mounds of dirt. I wish I had a root rake attachment for the FEL and a grapple, but I dont so I will do the best I can with what I have. Also the pond I build with the LS is starting to get a little water in it. I will try to finish it off while I am home for the holidays. I need to put in the overflow, assuming that eventually we will get enough rain to fill it up. Right now the wife calls it the "mudhole" since we had a drought for 6 months and since I built is we have gotten about 2" of rain, I guess mudhole is a good name.The rock in the water is about 12" tall so you can see it doesnt have much water. Now piling the brush is going to be fun.

Can you explain what the 3 pint hitch auto leveling does and how it helps with empliments? I thought i knew a lot about tractors but i just now found out about the LS tractors i think ive seen them before and thought they were a cheep chinese knock off tractor but now i see its from Korea, It seem you can get all the bells and wistles for less than the top name brands.

never mind the question about the auto leveling 3point hitch. i read up on it and it only available in other countries not the USA.
