Deere-est Posted August 6, 2007 Author Share Posted August 6, 2007 Well, I was aloft the TX32 which the farmer bought in 1997, I last drove it in 2001 and she hasn't changed much. Think a mouse has been at the wiring though as the fan speed indicator doesn't give a read out, the headlights don't work unless you press the break pedal and the horn is kaput - which also means there is know audio warning for various sensors!! Still goes well though. Here she is before I started. He got stuck in a barley field and though, new tyres. A trip to George Coles at Shaftesbury and he go hold of these front ones. A set of rears is being made up for her too. Not sure what they are off but they have a lot more bite than the oldies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted August 6, 2007 Author Share Posted August 6, 2007 I was driving a Gleaner in 2003 and this in 2001 and yet I can't picture the inside of a Gleaner at all. The inside of this was still fresh in my mind, all the buttins, levers, switches. Like yesterday A couple more, love the second one Thanks Traci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted August 6, 2007 Author Share Posted August 6, 2007 We had 1.6t/ac off of 22acres, 1.7t/ac off of 29acres and the 35acre field we didn't get done yesterday so I expect he finished it today. I was elsewhere today. She ought to take up photography as a hobby I reckon coz she's pretty good at it. Which reminds me -she is also quite good at driving combines as well!!!!!!!!!!
