239. Love it. It's is getting hard to find 7500lb machines it seems. I really liked the TL130 and TL220 I used previously. Only complaint is the dam fuel consumption, seems to use twice as much as last one. I have read a lot of new machines get this complaint. I opted for the wider tracks which I really like for my area.

L784 (gas) is heavy and big enough to handle most tasks. 6000 lbs and it always starts even below zero for snow plowing. My old back loves the forks, especially with a trailer ball for turning the trailers around. 2800 hours and should be around for a long time. You guys get me envious of the tracks and diesels but for $3500 12 years ago it owes me nothing.

Yes 6.2 F250. It pulls great, a lot better than my last 6.2 due to the 4.30 gears. I was a little tough going from my 2014 6.7 to my first 6.2 last year. But getting the right gears this time and the additional power bump for my new 6.2 has made the truck a lot more enjoyable for me.

That's why I'll keep mine until it dies. 1986 New Holland L784 (gas) is heavy and big enough to handle most tasks. 6000 lbs and it always starts even below zero for snow plowing.
