Something like this must cost a small fortune. One would think that it would be covered to help preserve the investment.

I ...This is a great photo of an impressive tractor. I believe it is an Agco Challenger MT 975B, the largest articulated tractor made (2006-2009). It is impressive at 570 hp in the 60,000 lb class (28 tons!) capable of pulling more than 30,000 lbs at the drawbar. Fueling it is not cheap as it takes 390 gallons of #2 diesel, and burns about 32 gallons per hour. These tractors sell used for between $200,000 to $300,000. I would keep it inside, but it takes a huge shed.Taken For Grantedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06763027485732267570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17947028.post-72881987704137781852014-02-13T12:06:33.790-05:002014-02-13T12:06:33.790-05:00Really neat perspective, Andy!Really neat perspective, Andy!Gail Dixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15697820311332653232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17947028.post-5285581921415569252014-02-13T11:32:17.566-05:002014-02-13T11:32:17.566-05:00That's a big one!
