Well around our farm or at the one i work at we don't come across new equipment too often. Yeah, same with me, the newest thing we've got is a Flexi-coil planter from '98 So this is kinda making me sick lol

not to wet but its still wet in places and all the rain weve been getting through the year it takes a while for it to dry completly out. made some pretty good ruts on a 40 that we farm it has a big pond on a hill and the overflow goes throught the field and its a mess there now after we got the 245stuck planting and me putting on the anhydrous through it...but its a lot better than the last tow years have been

its amazing ride u glide over everything but its hard on endrows really hard especially with a small bar that u have to turn a tight corner. bbut yes i ran it today and finished anhydrous i think but dad may find something we forgot. lol
terraces are like levees in a field to slow water right? they would be more stable that a rubber tired tractor if it has the 144in stance

they are pretty rough when u drop off a big bank but if ur going slow it hurts a little worse i think but it is better than a deere thats what ive heard but never ran a deere before.
im going to bushog with this tractor this summer going to see how steep of a bank u can ride on
