Deere-est Posted August 1, 2008 Author Share Posted August 1, 2008 why not use a rubber duck would it not be more manoeuvrable stunning fleet Not a chance mate, a rubber duck would be worse than a loading shovel. They arn't more manoeuvrable either, purely for highway use them (and rail with the bogey kit). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted August 1, 2008 Author Share Posted August 1, 2008 Yep I certainly get the variety alright. I love it. I do get the tractor twitch if I'm in a lorry for too long it has to be said!! Cheers for all the compliments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jez Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Corrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Yeah, now that has made a John Deere man happy this morning!!! Some excellent picturews mate, who is the dealer that sold the 7530's? Where abouts between Shrivenham and Lambourn are you working at the moment? I bet traci hasn't been out to see you with that smell!! :D Great pics mate, nice to have you on the green side ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 Yep Phil, quad box A - E and four speed. If I had the choice I would still choose it. It's robust, reliable and easy. Powershift is a world apart from when they first appeared in the 6000 series. We are at Ashbury Jez, moving to Baydon later though I think. Hunts are our dealer, Tilshead. Traci hasn't been out yet, we're too far away for now. Maybe in a week or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know ashbury, i carted bales from just up the road at a National Trust house there....... Serious point though it is great to see that you are doing well and keeping busy mate. Quite jealous as I don't get much time actually driving machiens in the fields these days. Keep up the good work mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 Cheers men You couldn't put it on the pile Rich, it would dissapear before reaching the top Two have proper chassis and two have just a centre beam. The two which have chassis' do so because they need four corners to have the wiegh cells mounted between the tub and the chassis. Yeah the wap is great Jez, we moved to Aldbourne yesterday. Got to wait for the farmer to stoke his 30ft 580 up though to give us some acres. Harvest is dragging with this wet weather which means it's slow going. Lucky for me though, I don't get stood down and asked to come back when they need me. I am on till Sept minimum Once we get going and split into the two teams we have a target rate of 1000t/day each. Fine if there is no hauling between field and stockpile! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
