Ready for work!

I'm coming from a 100hp tractor, so the extra 20 will come in handy! :cool:

Congrats on your new tractor, nice looking machine. I’ve owned a few New Holland cab tractors, first was a 96 7740 then a 06 TS115A. Both were good tractors for me. I like the ergonomics and control placements of the New Holland s better than any other brand of tractors I’ve owned, seems everything was right at my fingertips where it should be. What are your main uses for it? Just a guess but are those nut trees in the background of your photo?

Damn, super Jealous! That is an awesome machine. That is the machine I want to upgrade too!! I love the AR mount, that is a good add on. The Powerstar would look great with tinted windows.

Thank you SG!
I like the cab, and am used to the platform, as I had a Case 95c I traded in on this tractor.
I use it for agriculture here, running a 15' XHD Woods batwing cutter, an offset disk, and ridged harrow, as well as handling hay. Usually, I run my bigger tractor (this one now) pretty hard, with higher RPM's.
I have a 75hp tractor that I use more for doodling chores, such as putting bales of hay out for the cattle, etc. where the tractor is started and stopped more often.

The trees in the background are oaks. Both live oaks and post oaks.

I may wish I had tinted windows before this heat wave is gone!

Thanks for the compliment!

Here in Can'tada I'd have to use the bucket to kill things, LOL

Very nice looking tractor! That would look sweet with my old blue Ford.

Thanks neighbor!
Yeah, I feel for you guys and all the gun control up there. :(

I carry a rifle because I shred large, remote ranches in s. Texas, and encounter hogs and coyotes often. Literally all of my clients want me to disperse of them.
Since the cartels have free reign in border areas, lots of dangerous criminals can be found on remote ranches now as well, drug and human traffickers.
Personally, I'm always armed. Most everyone I know here is.

The way it should be. I've always said.....how many of these mass killings you think there would be if all the good, sane people carried. Situations would be ended quick.

Sure is a good looking tractor. Hope it serves you well. I guess that would be an FPT engine?

Yessir! I had a 100hp Case 95c with an FPT engine that I traded in. That engine was solid as a rock.

You ever get down here, I'll take you out hog hunting with thermal scopes and AR's. The hogs plague farmers and ranchers here, and we do our best to rid them.
