You missed the point again Robert, I'm not bashing Agco, AND, all I said was that I wouldn't run anything less than what I do. I would rather have power to spare and not burn out a tractor, than wear out a little 3 banger 4650 (which is what you said you run). And I don't have my green undies in a knot, besides the superior Deere quality my choice was swayed by excellent dealer service, next day parts (that is if it's not in stock, rare), ease of service, comfort,hydraulic capacity, and I can go on and on and on. As well, I know I can get what i paid for mine, but why would I sell? When something is that GOOD, you stick with it. I don't know who it was, but one fellow on this board said he would point to his shed and say, " now there's a cheap tractor" He was pointing at a Deere, and making note of it's low cost of ownership.
If you go back to when all this started, all I wanted to get across to you was that different soil conditions and levels of till an scale of farming require different HP. 36 HP would work in a small garden situation, when you start doing acerage, I think you're just fooling yourself. FYI I don't know anyone with an Agco over here, its mostly Deere, CIH, NH, Massey and Landidni, probably in that order. No real Agco dealer support in this area, which is a shame. The White dealer usually keeps one new tractor in stock, and it's usually a field tractor. And my offer's still good, I'll give you $1500 Cnd. for the M, but now you'll have to deliver, heh heh heh >;-)

Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
