First!

Love the paint job. Looks like I did it in my shop. Is that an oil leak underneath? I am
sure you will get good traction with bias triples. I wonder if it has a bench seat like the
belarus. Actually these days with autosteer a bench seat would be handy for a nap.

Rear visibility would suck, blind spots with the way that cab is designed at the back. The only way it will compete with "domestics" is price.

[SASKFARMER3]

I saw the oil leek at the front to and
wondered.
If had a 4 wheel tractor collection would
add this to Big Bud, Wagner, Big Roy and
this one for fun! Unless it has a value of
80,000 wont make it here!

[ColevilleH2S]

Looks like there is a walkway and a door at the back of the cab.

CNH & Deere had the market on large Chinese farms. Deere even had a joint venture combine plant years ago as had Cummins for engines.
Things change quickly in China and Case/Deere need to look over their shoulder.

After all the problems I,ve had with my new Case and 2 neighbors with 4 new JD,s, this might be a good option. Ya, it won,t happen, were too vain. China might have said to hell with your high prices and shitty reliability

[furrowtickler]

Is that a tool box or a tractor?? My 9270 and 9370 look like BMW's to that lol

[blackpowder]

Yah I'd never buy one.
But seriously if you ever get the chance to take some industry related tour of that country, it'll blow your hair back.

[Hopperbin]

Maybe this is why the chinese farmers are moving here. Other than the caise program. Other than that perhaps the tractor is 40 years old LOL.

[rook]

Tier IV compliant?

[hobbyfrmr]

30 years ago we all regarded the Toyota cars and
truck the same way. Now, I am willing to bet that a
good % of AV contributors own a Toyota for
themselves or their kids due to the safety and
reliability.
