It was not a replacement for our 7310r that was pretty apparent pretty quick . End of .
Fair enough. But what implements wouldn’t it pull? Why did you prefer your 6210r for the 80 miles?It was not a replacement for our 7310r that was pretty apparent pretty quick . End of .
the machine I was dropping off didn’t have good tyres so 50k was plenty quick enough and as I said I didn’t like their machine so why put hours on it at their expense .Fair enough. But what implements wouldn’t it pull? Why did you prefer your 6210r for the 80 miles?
E23 works ok in the 8400r but I wouldn’t want it in a 7rI think you’re fair and right I’m the same tbh demos are a pain in lost time dropping machines on and off but have there place if you are serious about a machine but when you know I’d rather park it up and use my own .
Had a 7310 on demo last year it made me realise how well wheel tractors had come on and pushed us to run one along side the crawler (not a jd though) I really didn’t like the e23 gearbox
Are you mad openly admitting your not a free loading waster out to screw every second out of a demo tractorthe machine I was dropping off didn’t have good tyres so 50k was plenty quick enough and as I said I didn’t like their machine so why put hours on it at their expense .
In 1974 we were considering buying a Howard Bigbaler and the local machinery rep invited us to go and see one working at a nearby farm. Chatting to the farmer in question l asked him how he was getting along with it. "I like it!" He replied "It's saved me a hell of a lot of work"Demo tractors been parked or returned in less than an afternoon plenty times here . If you know your machine you're pulling and have equivalent or more power on demo then it's usually very easy to know what it's gonna do or not do in a couple of rounds of the field . Different story if it's a strange machine on a demo tractor
Having no experience of either of these machines, can I ask why the fastrac is a non starter? surely on a dyno they will be close to each other.. The fendt vario in the fastrac will no doubt suck up more power and with the high top speed will result in more hydro input at the same working speed as other manufacturers.. Can't be a deal breaker tho as the fendt is highly regarded and not much slower on the road. If it is not just power and bulk that is the problem then what else do you not like?It was not a replacement for our 7310r that was pretty apparent pretty quick . End of .
