TM190 Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 Well seeing as i have just started Agri Collage and found out that we will be doing all the machinery work on the farms, I thought i would start a topic to put a few pics into now and again. :D As far as I'm aware out first task will be harvesting spuds, if the weather would give us a chance. \ \ Each year the Collage draw up a spec on what they need in Tractors, these are handed out to dealers and which every dealer can fulfill the spec and are the best on price, they will get the business. The tractors are just rented out from them ;) These will probley be the tractors that will mostly feature in here. So........... What do you think the Tractors are : : What could the best Tractor on the Market be (On collage Spec terms) Oh Yes!! A Good Massey Ferguson ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D There are 5 in the main fleet i think ;D 5445 5455 5465 7475 Also a 6480 which wasn't about ;) Im not complaining :P ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
