Deere-est Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 We demo'd one of them, my 7840 pulled it with ballasted rear tyres which wasn't bad considering the 105hp she gave out. TVT 170 w/rear duals pulling a Vader 4m, thats it today but off down Bridgewater in a mo so I'll keep my eye's peeled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pingu Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 We used to have one of them drills on the old farm i worked and it was a brilliant but really made the tractor work on our heavy soils on a MF 3125 put it on the MF 8240 once and we reached 18K easily and there was not one problem with seed rates etc. Today on my driving lesson caught a JD 6910 and west silage trailer carting wood chippings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnP Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 on the way to work this morning (not a good time to stop !) in a relatively small field 4 Grimmes tattie harvesters pulled by new-ish MF's with at least 3 Fastracks and a 56-reg valtra carting the boxes. Looked like a team with their own diesel tank & support van. In the next field was a TM-165 with another Grimmes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
