That T5 with the loader has made it so much easier for you Ian , didn’t have to rely on someone picking you up after dropping the 695 over there , think you need the loader you can always take it on and off when it’s not needed .

[@elginsparrowhawk7203]

Easy to say that but in reality do loaders ever get taken off a tractor (other than for a tractor service)? If I started to take the loader off the tractor I used daily I would be told “what are you taking that off for? We need it, leave it on!” What other would you use a larger tractor for,cultivation work? So ideally you need to do some cultivation work with it. Is the T5 made in Turkey or Italy?

[@sandymcghee3328]

The t5 is the tractor for you mr. P. 👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

[@crinnie45]

Sell both of the Case tractors, buy that one and a smaller second hand tractor for the wood boys to use on the log splitter. Job done.

[@papag1001]

I gotta say one good thing going for the T5 is you can Haul , Load & Unload your own Bales without needing help

[@harrie1976]

A year a go this farmer said he had the best small tractor and would not yet tread it in for a new one. He just got used to work with the old 695. And look at him now in a very modern tractor . All very comfy..

[@prjndigo]

Wouldn't say "modern".. post-TW sure.

[@paulthompson8467]

Ian your videos are a great advert for NH very honest and unbiased 👍

[@Dacklanis36]

Definitely think the T5 140 is perfect for you, you truly look at absolutely at home in it . Auto gear box is super nice bonus & it definitely takes getting used to the shuttle lever with the N button on the end, just dont feel right to start with. Just be nice to have the front 3 point linkage fitted & you will have the ultimate machine 👍. Also love how so used to going for the gears in the 695, just knew when you went to reach 😅. Certainly gonna have to speak to the boss super nicely & plenty of pampering gonna be required for persuasion ☺.

[@neiljohnson3406]

Hi Ian,a great move by your new Holland dealer to give you a loader with the t5,very much on the ball,great salesman, to get in first,to really show you something you would like,big thumbs up to him

[@maevephipson2803]

@Neil Johnson. Couldn't agree with you more. Top notch salesman NH has in that young man. Will be interesting to see how other reps fare against him. Big boots to fill 🤗

[@MrDbone75]

A very good Tuesday evening to you all

[@sanmarino_cs1698]

Great video. We’ve had our T5.140 for 2 years now, no loader on ours as we have a manitou for that side of things. It’s a great machine. Looking back now I’d have gone for autocommand in the T5 as that’s what I have on our T7.210 and that gearbox is a level up again on the dynamic. My only real complain with the T5 is that the steps to get in and out of the cab are far too steep. Keep half falling out as they don’t get wider like the T7 ones so it’s like a ladder! 😵

[@williamhawks2372]

Yes all you need is on your farm is just one tractor 🚜 and T 5 loader is the winner in my book that tractor 🚜 is very good to keep and try the two older Tractors 🚜 keep your pay Met low have a nice day mr p

[@stephenkelly2067]

Perfect tractor for u

[@polytaz]

Hi Ian, That’s want my tractor/farmer teacher told me. Loader up when travailing if you have something attached to the arms 👍👍 down if you have nothing on the arms 👍👍👍 always have a clear view in front of you 👍👍 enough said about straps 🤣🤣🤣🤣 🤞🤞🤞

[@Fireman9ify]

Looks the good Ian, and bags of power. Not that it matters but they are a nice looking tractor too. I bought New Holland as our local dealer is top class, great back up. I looked at case, John Deere, Duetz, Same, Massey Ferguson, Valera and it ended up between New Holland and valtra. I just liked the T5, good spec and price

[@tomcoleman1232]

enjoy the new toy while you have it. big change up from the case. I like how your figurign out how to justify gettign it (1 new tractor =2 old tractors) :) with the wider fork on the loader you can load 2 bales at a time. We do this when loading the long trailers and it speeds up the process. Much easier to do with the ease of the shuttle and then not having to use the clutch. Another tip would be to put the bottom layer on the flat that way you could put an extra pair of bales on top. As your strapping them down anyway they will be solid enough.

[@southtexashay777]

Congrats on the new tractor friend. hope you enjoy it. I am so trained of using the shuttle so much I use the blinkers on my truck thinking its going to move forward and revers. Keep safe friend. I will be cutting tomorrow and will post. Love you tractor.

Good looking tractor that’s for sure! And that “obstacle” on the road I would have called a potential business opportunity 😂😂😂😂 great video Ian!

[@teversoncoleman496]

Good evening Mr.P you certainly looked at home in the T5 and if nothing comes along that's better I think you have found the tractor that suits your needs. What's it like getting around the farm buildings. Keep well and stay safe.

[@FarmerP]

Both the T7 and T5 were surprisingly nimble.

[@robertmann7786]

Ian that T5 sure fits you pretty well.

[@stephencraigie1363]

Certainly seems to be a very smooth and quiet tractor

[@thepansthisthatandtheother7766]

Looks nice! Looks comfy for both you and Biskit. Hope this might work out!

[@stablefairy9437]

I have to say Ian - there is nothing more exciting than getting a new vehicle - new car in my case, new tractor in yours. I am currently champing at the bit about getting a new car but thinking maybe my old one will do. This new tractor looks super. Hope you get it ! x

[@chiefjohnsonBR549]

Audio in the T5 is very good, cab seems very quiet. I know you'll make the best business decision. But I say if you work out the details to suit you, You very much have earned and deserve it.👍🙏👍

[@maevephipson2803]

Hello Farmer P 😊. You were really enjoying yourself in the T5. You came home on a cloud 🌥. If there is a tractor that takes your heart more than this T5, then it's going to be an absolute beauty. Can't wait for the show to continue 🤗👍. Biskit was so relaxed she snoozed through most of the show 🐶. One aspect you need to factor in to the pricing is medical costs. If you stay with your current tractor there is the possibility of having to visit the medical profession for knee replacement surgery, Carpel Tunnel surgery in left wrist, Skull Fracture from bashing your head on the roof, plus possible injury to the nether region from constant bouncing 🤪🤕🤦‍♂️. Two injuries can be sorted with a crash helmet and air cushion 😊, but the other 3 will cost big bucks. So you might just be better off with a less bounce per ounce tractor, even if it makes you poor for a while. As my Irish sister-in-law used to say, when purchasing something expensive, "To hell with poverty!" 😱😅😩😊 Marvellous video, Farmer P. Keep them rolling 📹👍. Take care and hug for Biskit 🤗 🐶 ❤️

I knew you were going to say "I want it!" before you even said it about the time you were speaking about the screen. Your hooked on Big Blue.

[@miketaylor8777]

That tractor looks just the job. It looks like you have sold it to yourself. Just need Marley to come up with a very sweet deal.

[@JRattheranch]

Ian! You've done it now. Guaranteed Marley was watching and have displayed every buying signal in the book. 🤣🤣🤣 Mind that did look so much easier. Loading, unloading, less noise and looked much better on the road too!

[@FarmerP]

A nice machine, but is it affordable ?

[@Wetthewhistle]

That’s an absolute dream machine. Would be lovely if you could make the finances work.

[@paulharrison6417]

value for money on new holland is amazing

[@liamtoplis7136]

That t5 has your name on it all day

[@stephenbirds5169]

This is definately the way forward. If you can chop out a weaker £600 a week (on yer phone all the time) member of the crew then that will pay the difference. Job sorted. Well done and good luck Ian. You deserve it.

[@noelcxl2037]

Go for it Ian, you only live once. I’d get the case version though but that’s just me being biased, I’m red to my back bone 🤠

[@pellep6117]

Looks like the bisquet thrives in the blue ones

[@nigelgribble8736]

Maybe sell the 675 as well and buy the T5 with loader and front suspension if available. Get a power pack for the tree team to use the log splitter.

[@alanlanghorn7393]

Well farmer p if you fell good in the t 5 go with your gut feelings. And it would make things a bit easier for you as it all in one and your fuel costs of shifting two tractors to the second farm and taking the bobcat there when needed it could just stay at home and just use the loader for loading and towing .if you get a price and good matience on your he new holland .best of luck with what you decide .

[@polytaz]

Hi Ian, Maybe Abbi can get to poke the Bear again 🤫🤫 Her learning the Mustang again mucking out and you and us laughing at her 🫣🫣 Maybe Abbi can teach Dad new tricks with the new tech 👍👍 and Dad’s slowness 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Go on Abbi you know you want too 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤬🤬🤬 ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Also maybe Abbi needs a say in what you need/buy ??? Just a thought🤔🤔🤔 Don’t forget Ian all the extra weight that is on the T5 which will slow the bouncing on the road ie loader and rear wheel weights ❤️❤️❤️

[@themeparkkieran4573]

We have 4 new hollands as main tractors and we dont seem to have many problems and they are comfitable for a days work

[@charleshart6992]

The T5 looks ideal in that configuration, but I guess at the end of the day it's down to cost. You looked like you were enjoying yourself which is half the battle!

[@hutchy143211]

Glad your liking the T5, it seems like it would be a great fit for you. I'd say regardless of the tractor suspension set up make sure to has the best possible seat as well (I think this one does) as it makes the world of difference. We got a new T7.225ac this year and compared with a 2010 t7060 it's night and day difference the level of comfort even though its a shorter wheel base tractor and both have cab and front suspension. I would also say with tractors like this don't overlook the value of the screen, yes you can spec them with a cheaper DOG that only shows the gears but what this screen allows you to do is get the most out the tractor especially once your use to it. The ability to set up the gearbox, adjust hydraulic flow rates, assign spools to the joypad and the comfort of the electric loader controls can make the world of difference to how easy it is to drive. An example would be when baling you can just press the brake to stop (no clutch), hold the main joystick when the bale has netted just press the buttons on the joypad to open and close the door, let the brake out and away you go again.

[@archermathews8562]

Amazed at how quiet it is

[@penningtoncolin]

Hi Ian I wouldn't dismiss that tech screen and the isobus as everything is going more and more tech you might want to upgrade you fert spreader let's say in a year or three and it will probably have isobus so I think you should future proof your tractor yes it will cost a bit more but in the long run I think it's worth it

[@Kenny-on6ye]

Splash the cash! Keep the mxu and put the 695 away, it will pay you in the long run😉

[@fredharrowven1040]

From repeat you keep the arm on the front keep the ld scream because it's gonna take the history of the tractor what it's doing does the fuel levels any errors on the screen will come up and tell ya so you know what the fault is if there is any but I know when they want me for you and also I like the colour the attractive rides looks nice I like this I like the cabin looks stunning Yeah I'll definitely keep I'll definitely get the T5 it looks wicked Yeah we will get more scribers and more people joining you if you get this tractor so hopefully you get more scribers and I like you anyway you're safe

[@kevingovier5090]

Well Farmer P,that loader is very responsive,notice you changed your mind about the screen👍cab suspension is surely better than no suspension,think you’re going to struggle to see the T5 leave the farm😂 of cause you will need some covers for it,when the hedge trimmer goes on!🍻

[@ruairidhmunro]

You need to pop over to the Funky Farmer's for a quick swap. You could try his Massey, whilst he takes a spin in the New Holland ... that way you both get to try another demo. ps I'd have thought a 'shuttle' button on the loader joystick would have been better, that way you'd have one hand on the wheel and the other on the loader control at all times.

[@andrewdalziel4006]

Another great video. Can't wait to see what Case and MF come up with. They will all be good tractors which will make your choice difficult.

[@russellpetrie119]

Will be a real shame if the budget doesn't stretch to a configuration like that T5, good quality smooth and responsive loader, mated to a comfy powerful tractor would be absolutely ideal for your farm in my opinion 👌🏼

Nice New Holland but I honestly think you'd like the 145 Case much better Ian

I’m not sure if this would be doable as you say Ian but you could give the 695 and your case for the t5 us two tractors for one good one that does both jobs only a suggestion lol 👍

It does suit your needs very well Ian, would love you go through the options and prices. Has Case been in contact yet?

[@FarmerP]

I may break down the deals and options later on while weighing up all the pros and cons.

[@prjndigo]

That's loaders for you: take off the forks and a tree falls over the way you go. In the end if you want a front loader you don't want front suspension, just a lot of extra wear on it and the loader can be super fidgety. I think you'll prefer the fixed pivot front beam axle the moment you get into any kind of mire or sand. Have you given AGCO a yoodle on the phone yet?

[@FarmerP]

No, but plenty of phone calls coming my way.

[@plainviewfarms6364]

You could almost trade in two of your tractors for that one…. You never really need to leave the cab. The way you hitch to the trailer is blowing my mind…. Makes me feel we are stupid here in the US, getting in and out, releasing the tongue. Etc etc….

[@FarmerP]

The pick up hitch has been the preferred option for decades here in the UK, and with the slide out hook it’s even easier. 🙂👍🏼

[@TomvdVeen]

1 down 2 to go, make up your mind when youve had all 3 to test, and then if you really really need another new one. mxu still is a good workhorse.

[@alfiespreadbury4942]

My mate had a t5.140 for a few months. It had multiple oil leaks, it was underpowered, he didnt like the auto box, the pick up hitch fell off and he sent it back and got a t6. He also didnt like the controls inside the cab

[@alfiespreadbury4942]

Then of course the brakes were spongy , the brake pedal was extremely stiff, the PTO button was so close to the armrest that he used to knock machines out of gear by accident and he didn't like the way the shuttle worked, with the neutral button. He bought it as a replacement for an old john deere 6210, and said that it had less power than the 6210. The faults were endless. I could go on for hours.

[@alfiespreadbury4942]

Oh and it was more bumpy than the 6210

[@keithramsay3340]

your saying Ian its a pleasure to work with can you imagine when you get used to it you'll be throwing it around like the skid steer

[@grahampeters6609]

Why not widen the loader prongs and carry 2 bales at once, the tractor would handle it no trouble. We used to carry 2 bales of baleage which is much heavier on a NH TSA100 when I worked on one of my late brothers farms. Have a great day and enjoy the sun shine while you have it.

[@FarmerP]

The spikes I had on would carry two. I wasn’t keen doing it up on the slope though. It’s not my tractor.

[@MrMjdi]

I would say you don't know yourself with the T5 & Loader. Very versatile outfit. I bet your left knee felt the benefit of the shuttle for loading compared to routing for gears on the 695 :) Our Ford 5610 and loader is a dinger in the field loading bales but my left knee knows about it after a few loads.

[@FarmerP]

I know what you mean 👍🏼

[@tomcoleman1232]

Apparently its known as farmers knee. The left knee is more likely to be damaged due to clutching. becoming less of an issue with more modern tractors and the use of shuttle gearbox's but a high portion of famers that used the older machines for a lot of work have issue with their knees. I notice it too if I spend a day on the 7610 doing loader work instead of our digger. Sometimes paying the extra cost for comfort and ease of use is worth it, especially if you are going to be using it much more that the MXU. If the expected hrs use don a T5 are going to be more than the 695 and MXU and the skid steer is used less than that might be worth the punt on the new toy

[@peterbunston7525]

Tractor is giving you a smoother ride than a prison cell mate 😂😂

[@Centrikk]

I recon if its better to drive with the frontloader down a couple of tubes welded under the back of the trailer to drive the spikes into and then a strap to hold it in place would work.

Suits you, mate. If you go with the loader too, only you can say if that extra cost is worth the convenience and independence it affords you. No more begging to whingey relatives to do carting jobs etc. You could do jobs when you wanted, not when others are free. Pity the 695 is rather old, you could've used that to offset some of the extra cost. Looking from the outside I say the loader definitely is. I'd go with a grabber instead of forks though, for your wrapped haylage bales as well (can't remember if you usually wrap them in the field or not). You find the tractor was stable enough just with the wheel weights for counter-balance?

[@FarmerP]

Yes, it travelled well with just the wheel weights.
