sparrow legs Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 The guy that owned the fergie said it just wasn't any good didn't have enough power. he had had fergies on his farm for 20 years then the sales man said he saw the light. no only joking although thats what jim did say. must have just been a bad tractor. we had a farmer the other way round here, he got a brand new jd 7530 and said it lacked hyd flow for drilling etc and traded it after 6 months for a new massey 74--? guess he got cash back on the deal (were my dad works looked at buying the jd but mf dealer had it priced on the steep side) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my mates have run New Hollands for about 10 years and they change them on a regular bases when it came to getting 4 new big tractors the bought Case. the reason was that the Cases were about £8000 cheaper each. Both these tractors are made by the same company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
