I saw a dealer near to me today that had some very modern looking tractors. so i stopped and hopped the fence to look at them.never could figure a biz that took days off during the week? the guard dogs and i enjoyed each others company. i always have fritos corn chips for new dog friends :) the brand was a valmet.
mostly large tractors (i would guess in the 75hp-150hp range)they are undoubtably the most ergonomic machine i have ever seen. very impressive. no prices but i wager 4 quatloos
they are mucho dollars senior
i do know of a valmet company that made heavy weapons like machine guns and cannon. wonder if they are the same group?
anyone have one of these fine beasts?
as always thanks , john

thank you very much for the warm welcome. yes i like this place already. i always have liked tractors and the folks that run them too for the most part :)
recently we now get the rfdtv ag channel and the old tractors that are shown are really great. even my lady likes them.
she always says "girls like tractors too" :)
