what do ye think

t6070 v t6080

the t6070 wins by the way

that is a 6070 with range command and heavy back end so it is identical to the 6080 except for whatever bit of electronic difference in ecu

there is a lighter 6070 that new Holland sold but weren't very popular

Lovely tractor weatherbyfoxer and greengrass.
The bigger tyres really make a man of it.

How do you find the 3 cylinder engine for power and fuel?

Nice pic. Big in all as it is, its hard to see how it could have enough traction to operate 2 scrapers

Cheers pat, it definitely has the 105hp they say in the spec sheet anyway!...pulled 12 tons of beet+ a dog of a home made trailer 30 miles with it last autum and was impressed ..I had a vision 105 landini before the massey and was way heavier on fuel even if you were just doing loader work..more like programming a computer than driving a tractor at times doe!

Of course its a big loss to anyone when machinery gets damaged like that but there are far worse things happening in this country that insurance or money can't replace .

My digger got burnt to a crisp two summers ago and i hadn't it insured , it was a sickner when scrap value was all i had to trade against another but that was my own fault . We had a sick child a few months ago that really put things in perspective, all the machinery or money in the world could have burned and it pales in insignificance to things like that

While not wanting to raise the bitchy levels up again, insurance may not solve damage. If your like me and have old machinery you ll know that it may only get insured for 3 party. Most insurance companies won't give you theft or fire insurance on tractors and diggers over a certain age. Had a very strong discussion with insurance company on this as to them it's only worth scrap value anyway. My digger and tractors may be old but they are worth a lot to me and it would cost me 15-20k to replace them like for like.

Also insurance companies will not cover tractors/machinery if they have been modified without an engineers report.

Sometimes it's best not to throw muck at each other as you may pick up a piece of fluid shyte that runs down your hand covers yourself and makes you look like a t.i.t.

If we took all your half built things and stuck them together, would we get a Transformer?

Yup has happened twice with our 4255 glass all over the shop. Have an old block cutter hoist with a spike for the bales. Both times rushing to get something done.

A lot to be said for the fold up windows on the 7610. Did lose one a few years ago bringing in silage, holder broke and it fell onto the draw bar, lucky enough it happened on the road so no broken glass in the field or pit.
