Is this the new 375hp model they just released in Europe?

I bet I could do some bush hoggin' with that!

Looks like a new cab too? Looks more bubbly like the NH cab. I'm not a blue fan, but those tractors do look good. I'll have to start thinking now of how I can justify that to the boss lady. Probably wont happen.

Is that cab based off of a Fendt cab?

 

[MFRED]

Could be. I thought I heard Fendt just released a new cab? Maybe I was dreaming. I guess it makes sense, using the Fendt tranny, Why not the cab. Now that I look at it aside from sheet metal it looks more like a Fendt. Not a bad thing. Just change the power plant. Keeps them different.

God, I wish I had a need for a tractor like that.

You'd have to do an awful lot of farming to justify spending that much money.

What's one of those things cost, anyway? $200K?

Ain't that the the truth. I have no idea but I wouldn't be surprised.

You got me curious, here is a link to the closest thing I could currently find advertised with a price. A 8480 with 240 hp for "only" $129,000. Just a little out of my league.
