Dirt_Floor_Poor Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 They are neat tractors to look at and think about how much fun you could have driving one. I have had many employees over the years who thought just that. They can be caught staring at that Steiger Cougar 1000 in the barn just thinking about how much fun they’re going to have. They can’t wait to get in there. They can all tell you that the fun wears off pretty quick. Halfway through the first day pulling that John Deere 726 finisher smoothing up ruts and ditches in front of the planter they have had enough. There was never a fight amongst the experienced employees about who was going to run it, they would gladly let anyone who wanted to bounce around in that cab all day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT&T Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I've always wanted one, and now that I've got one I can't wait till the next time to drive it and work it. It is a very therapeutic piece of equipment. It will pull any thing that isn't too big for it, just like my Super H. It would pull the kinks out of the Mississippi River if you could get it hooked up. GT&T ? 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youngred2000 Posted April 24, 2021 Author Share Posted April 24, 2021 I used to run a cih 9280 when I worked for the neighbor and it was my second favorite thing that he had to run next to his 1026. He sold the 9280 last month on auction he was hoping to be close to the$50k he paid in 2012 he got $17,500 for it 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT&T Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 IHrondiesel Thank you. It has been repainted, and the boy that did the painting and preparation did an outstanding job. Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
