NE Iowa | Bought a Case 75A this summer. Both the Case and Deere are cheap India made tractors. But don't get me wrong they are a good buy for the money right now and don't regret the purchase at all. They are under 75 hp so don't have to have the major tier IV emissions stuff. No exhaust filters or DEF fluid on either one until tier IV final in 2014. This is one of the reasons they are cheap right now. I got a mfwd 75A Case for under $21,000 new. Case has 30" rears and 11" wide front tires. JD is only 28" rear and 9.5" fronts. Case is 4 cylinder engine and JD is 3. I don't have a loader. I use my 75A on a hay rake and for hauling round bales. It will go on the 6 row planter next spring. Really good on fuel. The high low shift is on the left side and the 1-4 / R lever is on the right side. Takes some getting used to but shifts better then the 40 year old Farmall 826 it replaced. I think the Case and JD are very similar overall but found a better deal on the Case and always wanted a new "Farmall". | |
