We have had a TR-85 for approximately 8 years now. It has been a good machine, and I am completely sold on New Holland and the twin rotor concept. For a mid size machine, you can really get through some acres in a day, and I have never slugged the machine. They can pull out of some amazing RPM drops. Ditto what the other reply had to say. 3000 hrs. is a lot on any machine. If you keep a good edge on the concaves and have a machine that is in good general condition, you will get along fine with your 300 acres per year. We have found few machines as heavily built as these.
