Case vs NH

[T Hectares]

FFS, it's the same tractor mechanically....

I have two T7's and have a good relationship with the dealer, why on earth would I buy the same tractor from a dealer further away who I have no relationship with jus coz it look better




Although I couldn't possibly slum it in a standard NH and have bought 2 of these

Dad sent back a Mengele forage box as he reckoned it was conected to the Nazi murderer (and he was right)
On the other hand, Wernher von Braun was involved in setting up the underground Mittelwerke/Nordhausen rocket factory and was given a job leading the US space programme. Uncle Hubert was one of the first to go in there while attached to the US 9th Army, and the conditions were appalling, with workers hanged from the cranes each morning to encourage the rest.

Funny bunch the Americans, considering all the nazi scientists they took in, mind control experiments they did to children and chemical weapons tests they did to human subjects, what a strange moral compass considering the part they played in WW2

Power command?

I'd say Case are nicer to look at. Driven both and find very little difference between the two from inside the cab.

Auto command

Sorry if don't mind me asking what mode do drive in lever or pedal ?

No problem, it depends what I'm doing.

Usually pedal on road and stick in field...

Depends on the job, i love that you can swap so easily. Rarely use stick on the road though.

Don't know if it's just around here but you see very few NH auto commands, Puma cvx's on the other hand are very common, seems like most Pumas are cvx.

A lot of CASE user farms are under Velcourt management and in my experience they exclusively use CVX transmissions in their Pumas.
Personally I'm in no hurry to see the Puma bonnets get updated, I still like them. I remember as a lad desperately wanting JD to take the twin stacks off the 4000 series bonnets and fit a side mounted stack like the CASE Magnums......................of course John Deere did that on the latter 4755/ 4955s............Looking back now I realise the "Rhino" bonnet 4000s were absolute classics, But the side stack versions that followed just don't look anywhere near as good.
