Fellow from NC hauled one to Al for the Red Power Roundup. Had a big turning plow with it. That's a dedicated tractor show enthusiast.

Lots of videos of that 2+2 from Red Power in action on youtube if you're interested. Search on "Red Bibs Bill."

Just how long is that hood? Looks like 15' Looks like it would be hard to see where you are going.

They are an amazing tractor. I wish the 7288 and the 7488 had made it into real production.
Here is ours:

A couple guys I went to school with are now our local BTO. They still have one they bought new - they keep it beautifully and still use it for chisel plowing

The hood curves down in the front, they have as good,if not better visibility than anything I have driven, if you are so close that visibility is a problem, you probably are going to have bigger problems at any moment.

you learn to follow the nose- wherever it goes, you will be right behind. you do need to turn a little sooner with a 2+2 than you would with a 2wd.

How do they do in a tractor pull? Run out of power before traction?

A neighbor down the road from us had one and his wife drove it most of the time. She said it it was the roughest riding tractor they had on the farm. They only kept it for several years and traded it off .

She was there but the couple times we saw her she was hanging out in a booth in the vendor area and didn't seem real out going. I didn't realize who she was,my wife pointed her out. She was in a booth with aprons, towels, quilts and such. Didn't go out of her way to engage us in conversation, maybe her family booth? I dunno. Figured if she was the saleslady she would be trying to sucker us into buying the awesome Ford quilt...
