It was a combination of things. The Allis has a 4" longer wheelbase, so I could go faster and still stay in the seat! I have 11L-15 multirib fronts and 18.4 x 30 rears on the Allis, both have a softer sidewall and cushion the ride better than the 9.5L-15 and 15.5 x 38's I had on the Deere. The Allis has 12 speeds compared to the Deere's 9, just couldn't find the right gear in the Deere. The Deere took two turns of the steering wheel to turn around, Allis one...doesn't seem like much, but caused me to use the reverser on the Deere and do a 3pt turn, which takes time. The Allis I can hit the brake and spin right around. Lastly, the grass was not as heavy as the first cut, so to be fair, this probably saved me some time, even though power did not seem to be a problem. The Deere had plenty of power, can't remember it slowing down in the heavy stuff (no doubt it affected the fuel economy, tho).

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
