NE mt | I have been shopping for tractors and am seriously considering either one of these, excellent dealers for both so not a problem there, loaders would be on either, autoquad in john deere, and powershift on new holland, those are the major differences i guess, also new holland twenty thousand cheaper of course, but have been trying to get mostly deere but not at all a deal breaker, so what would one of you choose and why? I do like no def on deere but transmission better on new holland. |

West Point, IL | we have a new holland and its been nothing but trouble. Seems like quality control is the main problem. Just little things like hydraulic leaks and electrical connections drive me nuts |

SW WI | Have you drove the Massey? Between those two it'd be tough but I'd go NH. $20k is A LOT of money to me |

NE mt | I have not drove a massey, but no dealer around here for quite a ways, i am sure they are a good tractor. And yes twenty thousand is alot of money to me too! |

N.C. ND | You always get what you pay for.... |

|
| Oh really-in this case they want you to pay for more than you're getting |

Oxford County, ON | Haven't had a chance to drive a new R series, but we were mighty impressed with the T7 series that was sent with the NH round baler we demo'd in the summer. It was certainly nicer than the 7130 the JD dealer sent with their baler. |

SW WI | I drive past Deere and cnh to get to my MF dealer. I'm not sure where you are, but for the money a new tractor costs, $.25 a mile it costs to drive to a dealer I would at least check one out. May be worth the drive for you |

Michigan's Thumb | We have a T7 210 and it been good so far, the main reason for buying it was its turning radius compared to deers or case. We aren't new holland men either, we have all three brands. 2.5 gal of urea in 50 in hours.

Eastern Ont | +1 on turning radius. I went to Fendt and what a difference at least from a ten series Deere. Has Deere not fixed this yet in the R's? |
