Try to find an old school 620hp tractor. 380hp is obsolete by most standards today...maybe a good puller 15 years ago but don't put that on an 80ft drill.

If you aren't willing to adopt newer technology your days will be numbered... It's one of the fundamental laws of business.

It's easy with 75 bushel peas all locked in at 10 bucks. You can buy a spare one even. Lol.

Know a number of farmers with "armrest controller error"

A tractor is not much good or dependable enough for any operation when the error occurs very intermittently and at random any time during its lifetime.

Makes it pretty much worthless when work needs to get done.

There is a place for near computer computerless machinery; and as has been noted; it may be worthless in your operation; but not necessarily worthless to others.

It may even move a few thousand miles in todays world.

Long live the big bud. Tractors way ahead of their time!

I wonder why some manufacturer doesn't go back to simple ? that big bud came out in 1977 with 747 hp and simple . we don't need all this technology . it's expensive and lots of problems that we can't fix ?

It's great to adapt new technology but some of this newer BS technology is costing us a lot of money in down time and repairs. Can still farm a lot of acres with old school technology

.....hair splitting technology in an industry where you can apply all the technology you want and someone(Mother Nature) else determines the out come. At least its there to use if you want it or if you think you can use it to outsmart Her.

She's pretty good at bitch slapping people back to reality. LOL.

The buyer of this one should do some more homework as it is difficult getting transmission parts for the manual gearboxes on the CaseIH 4wd. Case no longer supports them. Really have to stop bidding it up sooner.
