| Ill have to say after reading several post about the 8010's being a little weak on power for there size I'll have to say there a heck of tractor . Been pulling baler last few days on real steep ground , you look at the clouds while going to the top of our hills and If weren't for weights Id have to steer with the brakes . Had plenty of power pulling baler and the hi-lo on the column is the trick when you get to top and want to travel on till you start back off .My buddy has a 85 hp deere 4x4 and I go where he goes and he shakes his head at me .......... |

I know the feeling I was using my 7020 at work on the 15 Deere disc bine, doing the same job the 150 hp 4x4 Deere does on half the fuel! ------------- 1-B's, 2-C, 2-CA's,2-WF, 1-WC,1-G, 3-WD's, 2-WD45, 1-RC, 1-D17 Diesel, 1-D14, 2-D15,1-D17 row crop,1-D19 gas and All Crop 40,60,66,72,90 and 100 |

| I know what you mean. I picked up an 8010 PS this year to pull an 8-15 kinze and I am happy with it. The only time I have had an issue is when throttled down to turn and being hard on the turn breaks. Now I just downshift 1 gear and leave it throttled up. I will say I have enjoyed planting more this year than previous years on the open station 6080. Now I watch the dust blow by and it doesn't bother me. |

| We pull a claas 180 with our 8010 on some pretty steep stuff. It seems to handle it pretty well for what it is |

We love our 8010 PD on the round baler as well. Easily on fuel and weighs enough that you don't get shoved around on hills since we make 95% of our hay as baleage. I was so happy when dad said we could switch and bale with the 8010 instead of the open station 185! ------------- 8030, 8010, 220, 185, 160, D-17, WD, Unstyled WC, CA, G, 20-35, Gleaner E |
