Deeredriver Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Good pics there marky did massey change paint colours or do they just fade that bad ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted August 23, 2008 Author Share Posted August 23, 2008 Nope... that's totally alien to me... I'd never seen it until recently... doesn't look to be too safe either... that high up the axle What would you tow with that hitch then... Good pics there marky did massey change paint colours or do they just fade that bad ??? Thanks.. I think its all the French sunshine they get :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new holland 4 ever Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 They tow trailers, bailers, tankers like the "normal" ones. You can move it down thow, the pins comme out and you can slot them in the lower holes, i'ts usually used for implements on wich you cannot change the height of the hitch.

farmernick06 Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 Marky excellent pictures yet again, i've often seen a French dealership they always look pretty crammed Those trailers do look nice as you said, and a nice selection they have there...especially the Fendt Thanks for sharing the pics, hope you had a good holiday And that machine for picking out the fluff from Barrys butt is alot smaller than i'd thought it'd be \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted August 23, 2008 Author Share Posted August 23, 2008 Thanks Nick... kind words buddy... Not sure how much one of those trailers would weigh full up... any ideas As for Barry's machine - advancement in medical science buddy... - Technically speaking... it's more 'microsurgery' these days.. hence the reduction in size I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
