"New" tractor and spring pictures

Started cultivating Monday afternoon, main tractor lost tranny about 4:30, needed something to replace it... at dealers at 5, bought this by 5:30, had it working by 9 AM Tuesday. Works much better and cheaper than the old one, price was right with 3000 hours on it... now to finish planting and decide if the old one is worth fixing for a spare. Barely managed to get it pushed off the field out of the way for now.

Are you keeping your white Agco with the tranny problems?

The Agco died and you bought the JD? Or other way around?

Man, I'm planning to pull a 6 row planter this spring - if this snow ever goes away - with a 60 hp Ford 5000. You have plenty of traction on that rig!

White died, no picture of it. Keeping it for now. Bought the AGCO. Haven't figured out if a blue beacon adds as many hp as a yellow one yet :-). The duals make a lot nicer ride and easier to maintain speed on some of the sandy hills here.
