That's almost twice the weight of my backhoe. almost double the HP too. Had no idea Rolls Roice made diesel engines too.

Re: I watch a ploughing video in the morning
I love crawlers too! In fact my initial reasons for going to the auction where I bought the 446 and Herbie the truck was to try and bring home the American little brother to this one. I really wanted the TD-6 bulldozer but once I got to look it over I realized it had a cracked head and that was more than I wanted to get into so I let it go. Maybe someday!

When I was in the Army some of the self propelled personnel carriers, self propelled howitizers and tanks had Rolls Royce diesel engines in them. They seemed to be powerful enough to haul a lot of weight around. Harry

You don’t see these tractors every day. Great plowing.

Re: I watch a ploughing video in the morning
I know a lot of folks love those, but to my eye they are very odd looking!

Re: I watch a ploughing video in the morning
This one reminds me of the Massey Harris Pony, which I like the looks of. This one is a bit odd looking, but nice. I just am not a big fan of the green colour. I might have liked some of the very old JDs if it weren't for that green. I know, shallow... but that's how I feel. I also don't like much the look of Ford, no offence to anyone who likes them. I like the way they are built, but not really how they look. On the other hand I do like the old Cub Cadets. And of course I like our Case. My ramble for today
