Combines Info on MXM 190

[CORNKING]

Well I do not think you will get 14000 hrs out of either red or green any more. I personally dont care for the MxMs they maybe are getting better but the first ones had a lot of issues. I know of 5 mxms that were traded on deers. But then I just traded a 7920ivt back for a mx215 because the deere was to loud and hard to get in an out of. And also a little more thirsty on fuel then a mx210. Maybe go for a new mx or find one with not to many hrs. Just my 2 cents.

All of the early TM_MXM 175-190 had some troubles. They SHOUlD all be fixed by now. There were alot of updates. The basic tractor design is well built and the major componets have been in use for along time. Its been electical problems and things like the electric fan clutch. I'm not sure why they started using electric fan clutches instead of temp sensitive viscous clutch. May be part of getting ready for Tier3. Engine temps on Tier3 equipment is going up alot to get a cleaner burn. The 7.5l genesis will run for many many years. There are alot of older Ford 401 engines running over 12,000 hours and I know of quite a few 70 series tractors with 7.5l running around 8,000 hours now. With basic care that engine will make 14,000 hours, of that I have no doubt.

Hey Cornking, you say that the 7920 burns more fuel than a MX210IJ This is not what big green is telling us, they are supposed to be more efficient and thats is why they are offering IVT in the 8030 seriesIJ Pay more up front and pay more along the wayIJ Doesn't make sense to me. We will have to see if the IVT will prove itself with higher HP and larger implements in towIJ

First off are you looking for a loader tractorIJ The 7920 does NOT make a good loader tractor, my uncle has one and is trying to get rid of the loader as we speak. They run 2 mx170s and there is no comparison on the loading ability. Second cornking is right when he says it drinks fuel, especially if you put it under full load, For the money I wouldn't buy green. Personally i would go buy a mcormick. Or the biggers magnum not a mxm. my 2 cents

Just out of curiosity what are they pricing you a 7920 for cashIJ My uncle is considering selling his. they already think they have someone to take a the basically new loader that it came with for 12,000. They sell new for about 17,000. It has about 500 hrs on it. They would go buy a mx235 if they got it sold.

Question about mxm's.... Do they offer Timed Hydralics like the MagnumsIJ

Yes as far as I know the MXM175 and 190 do. but it was mickey mouse compared to the JD. ( no digital readout)

It was the system that NH put into the 70A series just before selling those tractors to Buhler. First you adjust your flow with the knob on the back. You don't get a readout to reset it back to the same point later, like Parksy said. You just watch the implement and decide if its as fast as you want just like with manual remotes. Then you start with the implement lowered, bump the toggle "timer" switch. Pull the raise lever back. When the implement was fully raised you return the lever to nuetral. At that point it has saved the "raising time". Basically repeat for lowering time. One thing JD does not do is allow different raise and lowering times. But the numbered readouts on the Deere are nice to reset back to when hooking back up to that implement again.

Well i hope in the next series of small tractors or next years for that matter they improve on that thanks guys

Ya on the7920 you can't adjust the lowering and raise time to be different, but on the 7320 you can change the flowrate for raise and a different rate for lowering which is real handy for makers ect. The headland management has more functions on the 7920 than 7320 It's awesome on the 7920.
