Went to a local auction a couple of nights ago. They had a 130 hp. Valtra tractor. I understand the Valtra to be a Finnish made tractor? Some there mentioned that they thought the Massy Fergueson was made in the same plant and possibly the same tractor now? I was told AGCO markets them primarily in South America and Europe. Anybody on here have any idea how accurate this info might be?
The Valtra brought $13,000 annd change by the way and was a low hour tractor in nice shape. There was a Kubota 4wd with a loader, low hours, looked like new, that brought $26,000 and a Case/IH 5120 2WD that brought $11,000. The auctioneer had to REALLY work to get what he got for the Valtra and the Case/IH. The auctioneer could hardly keep up with the bids on the Kubota until they got past $23,000. Of course the Cas/IH is one of the models that the hydraulic pump cost $12,000 on, too, and word is getting around. I talked with a local mechanic at the auction who told me he has figured out how to get around that. He didn't voluteer his alternative and I didn't ask.

You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
