Re: cultivating tractors making a comeback?
Thanks, Bill. Maybe while you're there take some pictures and maybe a video or two, if they let you and you have the time, that is.

Re: cultivating tractors making a comeback?
Okay folks, here is my summary of the things I learned about the Tilmor tractor yesterday:
- development began in 2013 with Prototype #1, for an international market in developing countries
- learned that there was a need for a tractor like this in the US ("many producers have several tractors with a mounted implement that is not changed because of how hard they are to change")
- currently building prototypes #13, #14, and #15
- have prototypes in use for evaluation in the US and Central America
- got to see Prototype #5 (pics later)
- scheduled for sale in 2019
- will be available with gas or diesel engine
- hydraulic and electric outlets for front and back
- external hydraulic disc brakes
- quicktach lift arms
- integrated ROPS
- 4 speed transmission with two speed
- currently selling some implements for use with Farmall/International - Cub, Super A to 140
- working on developing planting equipment
I am not an engineer, but I was impressed with how well made they were.

Hope this sheds some light on the tractor.

Re: cultivating tractors making a comeback?
Thanks, Bill. For some reason, I'm intrigued by these type tractors. Most people don't know, but when Allis was working on theirs, John Deere had one in works also. I have to try and find a picture of it.

Re: cultivating tractors making a comeback?
Very interesting. Hope it doesn't kill the value and demand for the Cub and SA-140 tractors. Looks well made but still doesn't look like it will be an IH to me. Maybe with ease of changing equipment, but you can buy more than 1 RESTORED IH for the price of those to put different attachments on. IDK. we shall see.
